One of the first things that comes to mind when thinking of travel in Africa is safari’s. Rightly so, given the word safari, comes from the Arabic word meaning “to travel”. Islam’s presence in African history dates back to the first phase of the Prophet Muhammad’s mission, when in 615 A.D. he instructed a group of Muslims to seek refuge in Abyssinia (present-day Ethiopia). This diverse culture and rich history makes Africa one of the best travel destinations in the world.
Here, you can enjoy crystal blue white sandy beaches, majestic wildlife, and a wealth of culture and history. Whether you’re dreaming of visiting the Atlas Mountains, or Egypt for its reach Islamic heritage and civilizations, cosmopolitan cities like Cape Town, or getting up close to the big five on safari, you will definitely come away wanting to return.
