Sometimes one country just isn't enough! You may wish to combine two, three or even four or more countries to make a very special holiday of a lifetime.
More and more travellers, honeymooners in particular, are choosing multi-country holidays - combining exciting experiences with romantic sojourns at idyllic beaches. It is also a great way to spend a family holiday, by combining fun, educational and cultural experiences with, perhaps, water sports and playing on the beach. Many retired couples like to travel to exciting and exotic places as a reward for all their years of hard work.
The African continent, with its very diverse countries, lends itself beautifully to a multi-country break. Wildlife enthusiasts can safari in Kenya where the parks are teeming with animals, travel to Uganda and spend time with the gorillas, and perhaps relax on a white sand Mauritian beach.
Southern Africa is a natural choice for multi-country trips. South Africa, start in vibrant Cape Town, then travel along the stunning Garden Route, followed by a safari in the Kruger, and then on to Zambia to see the magnificent Victoria Falls, followed by a safari in Botswana - a very popular combination. After all this excitement, a few days in Mozambique or the Seychelles is a great way to relax. Botswana, Malawi, Namibia, South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe are all within relatively close proximity to one another, making for a multitude of combinations.
For those who would rather stay in one country, there are plenty of possibilities for twin-centre holidays. A safari in Kenya followed by a stay at a resort in Mombasa, or a Tanzania safari followed by a few days at a beautiful Zanzibar resort, are just two of a host of combinations.
The possibilities are endless! Here we have included a few examples, but, of course, we can help you to design your own perfect multi-country holiday.
