Fortunately, these two experiences can be combined easily and, together, result in a memorable vacation. It is not just the inland landscapes that are breath-taking, but also the diverse ecosystems, fascinating wildlife, and melting pot of cultures in Africa, which can be found along the rugged coastlines and the spectacular Indian Ocean islands.
