Tropical Trek-Africa (ITR) – 22 Days from $3,110 CAD

Embark on a tropical adventure through southeast Africa's white sandy beaches, lush green valleys, shimmering lakes and vibrant, unspoilt coral reefs. Along the way there's the chance to try and spot the wild animals that make their homes in these fertile lands. Look out for shy zebras, antelopes and giraffes, lumbering elephants, rhinos and hippos, rapacious lions and leopards, and an amazing array of birdlife, including flamingos and the famous African fish eagle.
