The Best Africa Tours for Travelling in a Group
Whether it’s camping out in the Sahara or roaming the Maasai Mara in a 4×4, Africa is best explored with a group of like-minded adventurers. Join the party on one of our incredible African itineraries.
Epic Morocco
Casablanca, Chefchaouen, Marrakech, Fes and many more classic destinations await you on our Morocco group tour. This 11-day itinerary is the best way to see as much of Morocco in under two weeks as you can – and you’ll share every day of your overland journey with fellow foodies, adventurers and culture enthusiasts. Having discovered the striking architecture of Casablanca, the quirky blue streets of Chefchaouen and the ancient medina of Fes, we’ll head out into the Sahara. That’s where we’ll spend the night at a luxurious desert camp, gathering around the fire for wine tasting and stargazing, before rising early for a stunning camel ride at sunrise. We’ll trade dunes for mountains as we head to the Atlas range, dining Berber style and hiking to dramatic gorges, before heading to our final destination – the vibrant streets of old Marrakech, where you’ll get an incredible guided street food experience.
Ultimate Egypt
Who doesn’t have the Great Pyramids of Giza on their bucket list? Our comprehensive nine-day Egyptian odyssey takes in all of the nation’s most famous sights, but also shows you a different side to ancient Egypt. We begin in the chaotic streets of Cairo before you’re whisked out into the desert to see the Giza Pyramids and the Sphinx. Back in Cairo you’ll discover hidden gems, from incredible works of architecture to ancient bookbinding stores and secret stalls tucked away in Khan Al-Khalili bazaar. From here, you’ll board an overnight train south to Luxor, where ancient Egyptian temples stand next to the River Nile. Walk through the Valley of the Kings, explore Luxor Temple illuminated by candlelight and kayak your way past islets as we embark on a luxurious four-day cruise down the Nile – the best way to watch the desert go by is from the sundeck, cocktail in hand, without a care in the world.
