Why People Visit Africa

There are many reasons why people visit Africa, but as far as safaris are concerned one can not miss these out.

1. Wildlife Watching and Nature Safaris In Tanzania:
Tanzania prides huge numbers of wildlife spread all over the country and each of these wildlife display their own characteristics particular to the ecosystem. With Tanzania's national park and game reserves located so remotely such as Selous and Mahale Mountains, AfricanMecca guests have the opportunity to view one of Africa's few resources preserved by nature and almost untouched by mankind. Tanzania's rich biodiversity can be done by taking a count of the following: 3000 lions in the Selous, regular sightings of African Hunting Dogs in Ruaha extinct in most parts of Africa, Chimpanzees in Mahale and Gombe in their natural habitat, circumambulation of a million wildebeests in the Serengeti and the list goes on.

Visiting Tanzania On A Wildlife And Nature Safari Ascertains A Once In A Lifetime Experience Unlike Anything Guests Have Encountered.

2. Specialized Chimpanzee Safari Program In Tanzania:
Tanzania hails the great majestic mountains of Mahale home to hundreds of chimpanzees. Guests visiting Tanzania can undertake a specialized Chimpanzee trekking safari to the southwestern national parks of Mahale Mountains and Gombe Stream.

3. Relaxation, Peace and Pristine Beauty In Kenya:
We at AfricanMecca know that the daily grind of life: the daily never ending business meetings, career problems, cooking, cleaning, house chores, groceries, family affairs and relationship, can really take a toll on a human being. Well, if you feel what we described fits your busy profile then making an escape to Kenya is the right thing for you. You too need to be served and pampered. You too need to have nothing to worry about for 14 days of your whole year and have someone else cook, clean and take care of you. All you have to do is relax, receive good service, enjoy eating the most delicious food cooked from organic farms, enjoy spectacular views that personalities such as Prince William of England appropriately described as "loo with a view", referring to the superb accommodation views that would inject a guest's life with peace and tranquility when visiting Kenya.

So If You Want To Take Time Away From Daily Hustle And Bustle Or Share Time With Your Loved Ones, Then Kenya Is The Right Choice To Visit And Get Away From It All.

4. Cultural Interaction In Kenya:
Do you have a humble and tolerant personality about other cultures and their ways of life, and enjoy reading and learning more about people from other parts of the world, especially Africa? If you answered yes to any of these questions, come enjoy a genuine African experience by visiting the diverse cultures, ways of life and traditions of the people of Kenya. Meet the tall elegant Maasai whose native language is Maa, and whose dress code would want you to take a thousand and one pictures, which you hope to display to your friends at home; also visit ancient civilizations in Lamu, where the town has basically stopped as time flew by. Come witness the rituals, traditions and rites of passage of the Samburu people or travel to Western Kenya to see the most well decorated natives of Kenya, the Luo people.

So If You Want To Add A Touch Of True And First Hand Anthropology To Your Credentials, Then Plan A Visit To Kenya.

5. Indian Ocean Beach Vacation In Zanzibar:
Zanzibar which includes Unguja, Pemba and Mafia Islands remains one of few undiscovered pristine beach destinations in the world with beautiful white silky-sand beaches and azure blue waters where the water temperatures are refreshingly warm, where you know walking into the Indian Ocean waters, that you will remain comfortable and feel invigorated. If guests choose so, they can relax under the shades of the famous Zanzibar coconut trees and read their book or sun bathe, their mind, body and soul far away from the hustle and bustle of daily life in their hometown.

So if you want a vacation that offers excellent relaxation, pristine Indian Ocean waters, wonderful climate, good food, and plenty of sun to relax you for the year ahead then Zanzibar should be on your list for a superb beach vacation.

6. Outdoors Activities and Active Adventure In Kenya:
Many of our clients live schedules where there is little or no time to enjoy the outdoors, especially if they live in metropolitan areas. They often purchase clothing and equipment gear in anticipation of pursuing an active lifestyle; most times the resolutions never materialize because daily responsibilities keep piling up. And it also happens when days off from work are possible, that are not vacation time, it is wintertime and the temperatures are freezing cold, and if this experience relates to you, then you know you are not alone and many people face the same challenges. The solution to the challenges is a preplanned visit to Kenya. With the country laying right on the Equator, there are no snow days or freezing cold temperatures unless if you are climbing Mount Kenya. Kenya offers a variety of programs that engulf AfricanMecca guest into a world never experienced before. Place yourself on the plains of the Savannah grassland of Kenya on a horseback riding safari instead of a Toyota Land Cruiser vehicle, observing the beautiful Reticulated Giraffes in the distance or watching a herd of elephant wadding in mud, or even taking up the challenge to climb the second highest mountain in Africa, Mount Kenya. Those who want to take adventure to the next level can undertake whitewater rafting on the Tana River, mountain biking in Safari country while watching wildlife along the way, undertake Camel Riding Safaris that traverse at least two different ecosystems, bungee jumping that pushes your heart out of your body, walking Safaris that aim to bring an out of world experience, paragliding from hilltops of Laikipia, fishing for huge bill fishes, golfing in the Great Rift Valley with the challenge to overcome the wind crisscrossing the great depression. The list can go on!

So If You Want To Start And Motivate Yourself, While Acting On That New Year Resolution, Then A Visit To Kenya Is The First Step For You.

7. Historical Experience In Kenya:
Kenya is a country that is as old as the early exploration of the world by Romans: from 45 A.D, Hippalus, a Roman sailor, was pushed to the East African coast by the monsoon winds, to present day. Kenya holds a historical treasure for all to learn and enjoy. The country contains old extant forts standing strong, ruins that were deserted by residents without any explanation, immigration by European settlers who farmed and lived in the highlands of Kenya like Karen Blixen, discoveries like the Thompson Waterfalls at Nyahururu by Joseph Thompson in 1859, immigration of people from India, Arabia, China as explorers and traders starting from the 7
th Century. A meeting with the Samburu people in Northern Kenya will enable you to learn about their Israelite experience and Jewish heritage: how their families trickled down from the Mesopotamia region thousands of years ago. Kenya and East Africa as a region are also internationally credited to hold the original hominid excavations of prehistoric humans underscoring the theory of our existence to have originated from the area.
