Why explore Africa?

An exploration of Africa will allow you to experience varied and spectacular scenery, warm people, abundant wildlife and an unrivalled amount of adventure activities. Africa is the only remaining unexplored frontier of adventure. Above all, Africa exploration is an experience in superlatives. After all, where else in the world can you experience:

Kilimanjaro - the worlds' largest freestanding mountain
The Congo, Zambezi and River Nile, the longest and most historic river in the world
The Sahara, the worlds largest desert
The Namib, the world's most ancient desert

About Africa Exploration

Survival, navigation, mountaineering, orienteering... this is what it is to do Volunteer Adventures or do Wildlife Courses, and this is Pathfinders. From Mozambique's unspoilt coastline and its endless white sands, visit the Great Rift Valley with its stunning lakes and abundant wildlife.

Witness the largest animal migration of a million wildebeest as they move across vast plains of the endless Serengeti. For a truly unique cultural experience, drink blood with red -ochred Masai warriors. And finally, for a poignant and unforgettable experience that will probably not be available to generations to come, sit with silver-backed gorillas in Uganda's equatorial rainforests.
