Tanzania is blessed with one of the most pristine coastlines on the African continent, with the beaches of Kunduchi, Mjimwena and around Zanzibar being a must to visit. Being so close to Zanzibar and the Indian Ocean islands a holiday to Tanzania is often accompanied with a beach holiday to either destination often followed after a safari holiday.
Kenya - highlights of a trip to Kenya include a hike to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro, which is Africa's largest mountain and the world's fourth largest mountain. Tourists often combined a climb to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro with either an adrenaline charged safari around the Amboseli National Park or with a beach holiday to Mauritius. Kenya is one of the best safari locations in Africa because it is able to offer a wide variety of safaris, including luxury balloon safaris.
