One of the words that are often associated with Africa is "safari".

We then get an image of men and women wearing brown hats, polo shirts, and shirts riding safari jeeps with cameras and binoculars in their hands. Surrounding them are fields of green and brown and animals such as lions, elephants, giraffes, rhinos, and cheetahs.

Indeed, you’ll find tourists dressed like those on safari trips. The continent of Africa also has more safaris and tourist spots to offer, and those aren’t the only animals that you can see.

Here are eight different safaris from Africa and the sights and animals you will find in them:

  1. Uganda This part of Africa has many national parks to offer such as the Kibale, Kidepo, Mountain Rwenzori, Bwindi, Murchison Falls, Queen Elizabeth, Semuliki, Sipi Falls Mount Elgon, and Mgahinga Gorilla. Uganda also lets you visit the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary. You can also track chimps and trek the mountains and national parks in search of the gorillas.

  2. Kenya The safaris of Kenya is one of the best ways you can explore Africa’s best. The Emakoko National Park is where you can visit and witness a wildlife rhino and elephant orphanage and a giraffe sanctuary. The Samburu National Reserve also houses buffalos, elephants, and big cats in true wildlife. You can also witness and interact with giraffes at the Giraffe Manor. The Lewa Reserve is also one of Kenya’s main safaris and is a tourist favorite. The Meru National Park is one of Africa’s lesser-known parks but also offers tourists an experience of actual wildlife.

  3. Tanzania This part of Africa offers majestic views of the Arusha National Park, the Karatu and Ngorongoro Farm House and Crater, and Serengeti National Park. You can also interact with the locals of Mto Wa Mbu, the Hadzabe tribe, and the Datoga tribe.

  4. Rwanda If what you are aiming to witness are gorillas, the safaris of Rwanda are what you should opt to visit. The Nyungwe Forest National Park houses chimpanzees in its lush green rainforest. You can also experience trekking the mountains in search of gorillas. The Volcanoes National Park and Lake Kivu can also be found in Rwanda.

  5. South Africa This section of the continent is the perfect destination for families. The safaris of South Africa house a variety of animals, from lions, leopards, rhinoceros, elephants, and cape buffalos. It is also home to many iconic beaches, valleys of vineyards, and an 18-hole golf course. You can also visit its most famous city, Cape Town.

  6. Swaziland This African land is known as one of the last three remaining monarchial countries in Africa. While small, the nation is home to approximately a hundred species of mammals and 500 bird species. Their safaris are also one of the less visited by tourists, making it the perfect destination for those who want to enjoy and experience wildlife without crowds.

  7. Botswana Another family favorite, Botswana houses game reserves, and safaris that are beautifully picturesque. Should you visit Botswana during the rainy season, you can witness in full bloom the Okavango Delta region where the waterways, islands, and lakes are the main sights. It is also home to the elephant, buffalo, antelope, and zebra paradise at the Chobe, the Kalahari grasslands, and the salt pans of Makgadikgadi.

  8. Namibia Aside from the wildlife, Namibia prides itself for its vast deserts and sand domes. One of the tourist spots in this area is the Kaokoveld with its coastal desert. The Etosha National Park is also abundant with animals.
