Africa has 54 countries, each with its own good points and attractions. This makes it hard for tourists, especially those from other continents, to pick the “best” one. Because most people who visit Africa want to see the animals and go on safari, we’ve compiled a list of the five best African countries to visit.
Tanzania, East Africa
Kenya and Tanzania are next to each other, but each has its own wildlife experiences that bring in thousands of nature lovers yearly. If you want to try safari adventure, Tarangire and Lake Manyara national parks are great places to start. Most wildlife documentaries are filmed in Serengeti and Ngorongoro parks.
The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is considered the world’s eighth wonder, and the Serengeti plains are home to huge groups of animals that remind us of the beauty of Africa’s past. The peak of Kilimanjaro, which is almost 6,000 meters high, dominates the landscape. Many hikers and climbers can’t resist the allure of Africa’s roof.
Botswana
Botswana is a great place to go on safari if you want to enjoy the wild without the company of many other people. This country has a lot of private concessions and few national parks, so it has a lot of unique things to offer people who have already been on a normal African safari.
Botswana has some beautiful landscapes, like the Okavango Delta and the Kalahari Desert, full of animals that have evolved to survive in their specific environments. Some of the most endangered species in the world, like wild dogs, lions, elephants, and rhinos, find safety in these places. Botswana’s conservation efforts will continue to be successful if the government takes a strong stance.
Greece Egypt
One of the best countries to visit in Africa is Egypt. There are many great pharaohs, such as Julius Caesar, Cleopatra, Alexander the Great, and other famous people in Egypt’s 5,000-year history, which makes it worth seeing. Also, it’s a safe, cheap place to visit with a warm, dry climate and a well-established tourism industry.
It’s amazing how long some of Egypt’s buildings have been standing. Most people visit Egypt to see these buildings, enjoy the busy markets of Cairo, and take sunset cruises and tours along the Nile River. Hurghada is a desert paradise with warm weather and golden beaches. It has great coastal resorts and lots of fun things, like snorkelling, scuba diving, quad biking, and boat cruises.
Mauritius
Based on numbers, Mauritius is the safest country in Africa and the 28th safest country in the world to visit. The crime rate in the country is low, and most crimes are small, like pickpocketing. With an HDI of 804, it’s also the most developed country in Africa. Why do so many people visit this lovely country with its snow-white beaches and coral reefs? None of these reasons.
Nature lovers and people who like the sun, water sports, hiking, and cycling will all love the country. There are 155 resident bird species, and 28 of them are endemic. There are also over 300 different kinds of flowering plants in Mauritius.
Namibia
Namibia is one of the least populated countries in Africa. It is in the southwest of the continent. This is because a lot of it is dry, empty land and the harsh Namib Desert. After being a German colony, It became independent from South Africa in 1990. Some buildings from the colonial era can still be seen in Windhoek, its capital.
Conclusion
Hope you find the best country to visit in Africa. There’s much more to see and do in Africa than safaris, beaches, and the pyramids. It’s the second-largest and second-most-populated continent in the world. Along its long coastline, there are beautiful beaches and rough cliffs. In the middle are mountains, deserts, tropical rainforests, and the Nile River.
