This is a website about tourism routes in Africa - but not tourism in the ordinary sense. Operated by local people within the framework of a system provided by Open Africa, these routes will take you to places you may not otherwise see; authentic places, mostly away from the crowds, where you can reconnect with nature, meet the people of Africa and share in their experiences and stories. Travellers have the freedom of putting their own trips together, contacting the operators directly and selecting experiences from the various routes.
This is Afrikatourism, which is tourism based on the attractions strengths and experiences that are unique to Africa. It encourages travelling in a way that respects and benefits local people, their culture and the natural environment, allowing you to have a special experience whilst making a difference in Africa. Come home to Africa, the birthplace of humankind.
