Travel to Africa

Welcome to Africa, a vast and untamed land which promises to reawaken the spirit and capture your heart from the moment you arrive. The heady mix of ravishing coastlines, jaw-dropping scenery, thrilling wildlife and world-class cuisine and lodgings make this a one-stop shop for the adventurer, sun seeker, safari enthusiast, foodie fanatic and budding photographer alike. 

From the moment you set foot on African soil, you can expect to be captivated by the wide-open spaces and sense of freedom. Wherever you choose to visit within Africa, you will be wowed by the sheer size of everything and the sense of peace and space.

Probably best known for its safaris, Africa offers prime game viewing from the southern tip of the Cape Winelands in South Africa to the northern reaches of Kafue Park in Zambia. With the largest concentration of wildlife on the planet, you can expect to see everything from whales and dolphins along the coastline in South Africa to lions, leopards and elephant further north in Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Namibia

Alternatively, should safaris not be your thing then the bustling and vibrant city of Cape Town and its surrounds offer some of the finest eateries and vineyards in the world.  

Getting around Africa nowadays is very easy and an excellent network of flights can transport you from the wilds of the Okavango Delta to the gastronomical capital of Cape Town in a matter of hours. Equally, if relaxing on an exquisite deserted island beach is on your bucket list then you will find plenty of connecting flights to the lovely islands of Mozambique.

Whatever is on your wish-list, Africa has it all; a very special place indeed.

Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.

Client Testimonials

I thought the Ampersand team was outstanding. We couldn’t have hoped for anything more.
- Mr Geoffrey Johnson, India
Without question, you put together the best trip I have ever taken. We were shown around like visiting dignitaries, the hotels were fantastic and the itinerary was just right. Everybody I know will hear about how amazing Ampersand is!
- Leslie Siben, India
So many highlights to choose from! The hotels were amazing but Maya Villa was a highlight… I loved just hanging out in the hammock reading my book and watching the peacocks chase the cows!
- Krista Weir, Sri Lanka
I had a very lovely time and was looked after splendidly. My first visit to India could not have been better, save for being longer! But I shall return at some point and I shall look to you to make the arrangements.

I would recommend Ampersand without any hesitation!!! The best travel agent that I’ve ever had.

An absolutely first-class service all round!
