Africa
Divided into 53 countries Africa has been called the "birthplace of the human race" as the world’s earliest people lived there two million years ago. You’ll find a rich and varied culture there with more than 800 ethnic groups dotted across the continent – each having their own language. The world's longest river, The Nile, flows from east-central Africa to the Mediterranean Sea and volcanic activity created most of Africa's highest mountains, including Kilimanjaro and Mount Kenya. Africa surely is a destination rich in culture, tradition and breath-taking scenery.
