10 Reasons to Choose Africa

After more than a year of overwhelming and often instant change — and the anxiety that comes with making micro-decisions for everyday actions — people deserve a break. So why not Africa?

Cheli + Peacock Safaris offers 10 reasons (originally compiled by African Bush Camps) why you should choose Africa’s national parks and other wilderness areas to disconnect from the turbulence and trepidation of it all:

1. Not a lot of people, but plenty of animals

2. Wide open spaces instead of crowded cities

3. Amazing accommodation in private safari tents or cottages

4. Widely spaced, open-air dining

5. Open-top safari vehicles and other outdoor (fresh air) activities

6. High staff to guest ratios and superior service

7. Active incident reporting systems for medical concerns or emergencies even in the most remote areas

8. Backup from medical support teams

9. Your journey helps safeguard African wildlife and insure the future of endangered species

10. Local community health, education and employment also benefits from safari tourism
