Solo
Africa
Solo, you set the tempo: safe, lively neighborhoods, easy-to-reach places and good chances to meet people when you feel like it.
From Morocco to South Africa, the continent blends medinas, savannas, deserts and some of the world's most pristine beaches.
When to go
Dry season for safaris (June-October in East and Southern Africa); spring and autumn for the Maghreb; avoid peak summer desert heat.
Must-sees
- Morocco — Medinas, desert and the Atlas mountains.
- South Africa — Safaris, Cape Town and the Garden Route.
- Egypt — Pyramids, the Nile and Red Sea beaches.
- Senegal — Dakar, lagoons and the warmth of teranga.
- Tanzania — Serengeti, Kilimanjaro and Zanzibar.
