associate Africa with animals roaming free, breathtaking landscapes, camp fires under
night skies with the sounds of the wild filling the void. All this, and more, awaits you
on this Big Game Adventure Safari. |

The
quintessential Africa, discovered for the world by the great explorers Livingstone Stanley
and Burton, and now conserved for later generations; but in place of the hunter’s
rifle is the photographer’s lens. Wildlife and environmental conservationists as well
as Rangers have become the custodians of Africa’s fragile ecology. |
Dr David Livingstone first saw
the "smoke that thunders" – which he named the Victoria Falls – on 17th
November 1855, an experience he recalls in his 1857 Missionary Travels.
"After twenty minutes sail from Kalai, we came in sight, for the first time, of the
columns of vapor, appropriately called "smoke"….. Five columns now arose,
and bending in the direction of the wind, they seemed placed against a low ridge covered
with trees; the tops of the columns at this distance appear to mingle with the clouds.
They were white below, and higher up became dark, so as to simulate smoke very closely.
The whole scene was extremely beautiful; the banks and islands dotted over the river are
adorned with sylvan vegetation of great variety." |
