Here Are 11 Best Places to Visit in Africa

People tend to think of Africa as a country, not a continent. But with 54 countries calling it home, Africa’s topography, landscape, and activities vary drastically by region. If you have been to the continent before, you discover that each time you visit, you are surprised at just how many new things there are to see and do.

BEST PLACES TO VISIT IN AFRICA

To make it easier for you to plan a trip, we’ve highlighted some of the most popular countries and best places to visit in Africa, as well as what to see and do there, when to go, and where to stay. Hopefully this primer will get you motivated to hop on a plane—it’s worth the long flight to get there.

UGANDA

One of only three countries in the world where you can trek to see mountain gorillas in the wild (there are only 900 mountain gorillas left in the world), the experience in Uganda is truly amazing.

Mgahinga Gorilla National Park in Uganda is home to the Nyakagezi gorilla family with its five silverbacks (adult males). It holds a certain allure, since it boasts one of the highest concentrations of silverbacks within a family. Tours are small, no more than eight people, and once the gorillas are spotted, you have 60 minutes with them—and believe me, it goes really fast.

When to go: Since it’s a rain forest, there’s a chance you’ll get wet anytime, so there’s no really bad time to go. Just be sure to pack appropriately.

KENYA AND TANZANIA

Kenya and Tanzania are often combined into one trip. Many people consider these two counties among the best places to visit in Africa because they’re where you can see the Great Migration—where 2 million wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle make a migratory circle from the Masa Mara in Kenya to the Serengeti in Tanzania and back again

But even if you don’t go during the migration, Kenya and Tanzania have some of the most extensive populations of wildlife in all of Africa; it’s not uncommon to see 50 elephants in a herd, or to see the Big Five (lion, rhino, cape buffalo, elephant and leopard) on your first game drive.

And, of course, Tanzania is home to Mount Kilimanjaro—one of the great bucket-list hiking destinations in the entire world.

When to go: “Avoid the long-rains of April and May. If you’re going to catch the migration, it’s July through September,” says Daniel Saperstein, co-owner, Hippo Creek Safaris and an Africa travel specialist.

ZAMBIA AND ZIMBABWE

Victoria Falls by Simon Matzinger is licensed

Head to these two countries to see Victoria Falls, the largest waterfalls in the world. Plus, you can go white water rafting down the Zambezi river, chock-full of crocs and hippos (it’s an amazing experience and one I highly recommend).

“Additionally, Zambia focuses on fantastic walking safaris in wonderful national parks like South Luangwa and the Lower Zambezi. In the latter, you can also do canoeing and fishing in addition to the game drives and walks,” says Hippo Creek Safari’s Daniel Saperstein. “The game is very good and the experience in Zambia feels like Kenya did 30 years ago—still very raw and real.”

Combing these two countries gives you a look at Victoria Falls from both sides and you’ll see different game.

When to go: “Peak season will be their winter time, when it is dry and mild—anywhere from June through September is ideal,. It can be very hot from October through January.”

Where to stay: Luangwa River Camp has a great location nestled on the banks of the Luangwa River and is home to plenty of hippos, giraffe, and more than 450 bird species.

NAMIBIA

In Namibia, you can climb some of the highest sand dunes in the world (or better yet, take a hot air balloon ride over them). The scenery is dramatic and vaults Namibia into the discussion for one of the best places to visit in Africa.

“However, don’t go to Namibia expecting to see game. You may see some up north in Etosha, but it’s more about the dynamic landscapes, which are breathtaking.

If you can afford the stopover, it’s worth doing a Living Desert Tour, a Ghost Town tour, and an overflight of the Skeleton Coast.”

Best time to go: Namibia is a year-round destination, but remember that since it’s a desert environment, you can get a big shift any day of the year, from very hot to very cold.  Pack both warm-weather and cool clothes.

BOTSWANA

This country’s focus is on high-end, low-impact tourism, so the properties are all very luxurious and the crowds you see in East Africa are noticeably absent here. It’s where to go in Africa for up-close wildlife experiences, sans crowds.

Plus, the landscape is simply stunning with the Okavango Delta, so instead of traditional game drives by vehicle you’ll be able to go out in mokoros (traditional dug-out canoes), which brings you eye-level with the game. Nothing says safari like being five feet away from a bathing elephant.

When to go: The game viewing gets progressively better in the winter, from June through September, after the Okavango Delta floodwaters have started to recede. September is considered peak season.

SOUTH AFRICA

From shark cage diving and malaria-free safari zones to experiencing the flavors of Durban, an enclave of Indian culture in Africa that rests right on the Indian Ocean, South Africa combines an European and African flair.

Private game reserves abound in South Africa, which makes it easier to see the Big Five animals up close and in limited time than in other destinations. You can also go on wine tours or get in some hiking up Table Mountain—on its own, one of the best places to visit in Africa for a day trip.

When to go: Almost any time of the year is great for game viewing; but December through February sees the bulk of the rain and May through July are the coldest months.

EGYPT

Visiting the pyramids and taking a cruise up (yes up) the Nile River is a bucket list adventure for good reason. “Egypt is the cradle of Western civilization. Few experiences can measure up to the massive scale of the pyramids and the sphinx,” says Claudia Worth, Product Manager of Abercrombie &Kent.

“Discover the Aswan islands by felucca (traditional sailboat) or privately tour the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities, home to artifacts recovered from Tutankhamun’s tomb.” This part of Northern Africa appeals to history buffs and those interested in a cultural journey.

When to go: “Egypt is a year-round destination, but the most comfortable temperatures are between October and April,” notes Worth.

MOROCCO

Visit the famous spice markets and entrench yourself in Arab culture. “With a history stretching back nearly 10,000 years, the country’s great cities—Marrakech, Tangier, Fez and Rabat—offer a look into ancient traditions,” says Worth.

Morocco offers so many different kinds of experiences—I did a camel trek in the Sahara Desert and slept under the stars, and had tea with nomadic Berbers to learn about their lifestyle. In Marrakech, known as the red city,  there’s plenty to grab your attention.

A must is the Djemaa el Fna, the largest market in Morocco and the biggest square in Africa,” says Worth. “Make sure to have a walk around the square in the evening when musicians, dancers, and storytellers come out.”

Wander around the many souks adjacent to Djemaa el Fna, where you can buy everything from spices to teapots.

When to go: Morocco is a year-round destination and one of the best places to visit in Africa. Marrakesh can be hot in the summer months, however, and the desert gets very cold in January.

NIGERIA

Nigeria is among best places to visit in Africa If you are thinking about going to travel in Africa a lot of people overlook Nigeria, but they are wrong to do so.

Nigeria is a huge diverse country blessed with incredible natural resources, destinations and sunny weather.

There are so many attractions and cultural highlights which will leave you spellbound. Most places are touristy and so you are guaranteed a local authentic experience.

For example, the warm and cold water flows in Ikogosi, Ekiti state in the south-west of the country are highly recommended. This region attract thousands of tourists every year  and you will really love the experience of visiting Nigeria.

Nigeria is blessed with varieties languages including hausa, igbo,edo, efik, igala, ijaw, isoko, urhobo, igbira and also local languages.

A lot of international tourists visit Nigeria and try to learn, or pick up some of the basics of some of the languages available and this is one of the things that make Nigeria one of the best places to visit in Africa.
