Africa has natural beauty to see and kind locals to meet! I am biased because I went on many tours that have taken my breath away, but I believe the best way to see the world is to book a guided tour. We list the 8 best tours to book in Africa!

3 Reasons to Book a Tour:

1-You will most likely learn something new about the place you are visiting, as tour guides are also locals!

2-Transportation is taken care of MOST of the time. Tour guides will pick you up from your accommodation. 

3-You will make memories that will last a lifetime.

Tour #1: Mt. Kilimanjaro 7-Day Hiking Adventure-

At 19,340 feet, Mount Kilimanjaro, situated in Tanzania, is the highest summit on the African continent. The magnificent peak is a volcano covered with snow.

 My best friend Ari booked one of the most unforgettable journeys of her life to hike up Mt. Kilimanjaro. She completed the trek, where she camped out at night and spent long days hiking up the mountain. She said it was one of the most fulfilling experiences she has ever had.

It is mesmerizing to see wild gorillas living in their natural habitat on a tour. The best area in Uganda to trek with Gorillas is at Volcanos National Park and Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. At Bwindi, you will hike for about 4 hours through the rainforest. You might find slippery mud paths and fire aunts; however, the humid hike is worth it because you get to see amazing views. oh, and of course, gorillas…

Tips: You need to book a trekking tour that also gives you access to a permit.
