Africa Tours & Holidays

Souqs, savannas, safaris and the Sahara – the lure of Africa is its diverse wildlife, thousands of cultures and breathtaking landscapes.

Originally meaning ‘to travel’ in Arabic and Swahili, the word ‘safari’ can describe many types of epic adventure in Africa. There’s the ancient Egypt kind – discovering the lost city of Abu Simbel and the Valley of the Kings. The nomadic one – veering away from Morocco’s souqs and medinas and being hosted by a Berber family in the Sahara. The local village version – cherishing moments of interaction with Maasai, San and Malagasy cultures. And, of course, the wildlife way – heading in search of the Big Five in any number of game reserves and parks: Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Kruger and Lake Nakuru, to name a few. What does your African adventure look like?

Premium Southern Africa

Hazel · Traveled February 2024
I have fallen in love with Southern Africa! Admore, our group leader, was so knowledgeable, organised, and great company too. This trip has given me confidence to see more of the world as a solo traveller, and I'll certainly return to Africa!

Our tour leader, Rita, was AMAZING! The food cooked by Mbithe was fantastic and the driving by Loyford was safe and careful! I highly recommend this crew and Intrepid again!

Classic Morocco

Gail · Traveled February 2024
This trip was an amazing experience. I feel like I really got to see the real Morocco. Abdullah (guide) & Hassan (driver) really looked after us and made sure we were well looked after. This trip has made me want to explore more locations offered by Intrepid.

North Morocco Adventure

Perry · Traveled February 2024
I had such an amazing adventure in Morocco! Our guide Mustapha was so approachable and kind-hearted. He established a true rapport with each member of the group and looked out for our safety and well-being in so many ways. I learned so much about Morocco and wished I could have stayed longer! I can’t wait to book another Intrepid trip in the future.
