Top 10 reasons why an African family safari trip beats any other vacation—Part II:

6. Amazing service provided by lodge / camp staff, exceptional guides, and extremely friendly locals: Hills of Africa Travel works with the best lodge and camp companies to ensure you are in excellent hands and every one of your needs is met. Attentive staff provides wonderful care and aid to take the burden off of you and cater to your individual requests and preferences. No matter what activity you’re interested in doing, you can enjoy it casually without the worry of planning and researching. Whether you choose to take a game-drive, walking safari, or a tour through a local village, expert and licensed guides are with you every step of the way, ensuring you have an interactive experience and are provided with the best and most interesting knowledge on the area.

7. Great shopping: Shopping in Africa is a wonderful way to spend a day while on an African family safari trip. This interactive experience allows you to take a step closer into the cultural aspects of the various African countries and cities, and interact with the locals. As you walk through local villages and shopping hubs, a mixture of cultural, historical, and community discoveries come to life. One of Africa’s most highly acclaimed cities to shop in is Cape Town, South Africa. The abundance of charming cafes, antique shops, art galleries, beauty shops, and artifact shops are what gives Cape Town its delightful, old-world charm. With excitement and beauty around every corner, it’s no wonder shopping in Cape Town is considered one of the most entertaining activities to do in the City. Don’t forget to visit Streetwires if you’re in Cape Town. They have some of the most amazing African wire and bead craft in the entire continent!

8. Intimate experiences: Hills of Africa Travel makes itineraries as personal and intimate as you desire. Private guides ensure personal service and attention, eliminating the overwhelming feeling of large group tours. With expert guides who are extremely knowledgeable of the regions they provide tours in, you have the opportunity to gain a rare and exception insight into the land, animals, people, culture, and history of the region. Most of the lodges and camps Hills of Africa Travel works with boast private and intimate settings in order to prevent guests from experiencing touristy locations that lack privacy, personal touches, and highly attentive staff. These intimate lodges and camps also allow you and your family to become closer with nature than ever before without having to struggle to see through larger crowds.

9. Some of the best photo opportunities in the world: Provide your family with memories that will last a lifetime while on an African family safari tour. Africa offers you the rare opportunity to observe endangered species, phenomenal migration patterns, and some of the world’s most mesmerizing creatures from an extremely close (and safe) proximity. Famous for its breath-taking scenery, unique cultural customs, exotic birds, and fierce game, it’s no wonder internationally-acclaimed travel and wildlife magazine publications come to Africa for inspirational and exceptional photography. It is an extremely rare treat to be given the opportunity to shoot the same settings as some of the world’s greatest photographers.

10. A wide spectrum of safari tours and adventurous experiences for all ages: Africa is celebrated for its unique adventures, known by the entire world as safaris. You have the opportunity to experience Africa’s pristine nature from a wide spectrum of ways. Choose from horseback safaris, hot-air balloon safaris, game-drives, night-drives, canoe safaris, river cruise safaris, bushwalk safaris, black rhino tracking, and gorilla trekking. Each type of safari boasts a unique and varying perspective into Africa’s natural world, allowing you to use your senses, mind, and skills in entirely new ways. No matter what activities you choose to participate in, you and your family will have an unforgettable and life-altering experience, incomparable to any other vacation.
