										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">If there is a true hidden paradise on this planet that’s within reach of India, it is the Seychelles archipelago. These picturesque, serene, and miniature islands are full of life and love, making Seychelles a must-visit destination this summer. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As always, since so much has changed in the past few years thanks to lockdowns and health issues, we decided to write a condensed Seychelles travel guide for 2021 that will be constantly updated as per the latest directives. You can of course avail our services to ensure a truly stress-free, guilt-free getaway amongst the golden sands and turquoise waters!  </span></p>
<p><b>About Seychelles </b></p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-7465 size-full" src="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="500" srcset="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78.jpg 750w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78-300x200.jpg 300w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78-24x16.jpg 24w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78-36x24.jpg 36w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78-100x67.jpg 100w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78-150x100.jpg 150w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78-600x400.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">These islands have an extremely vast and varied history. It was largely uninhabited (as far as we can tell) until the 15th century when several Arab and Eurasian traders visited the island. The earliest documented visit was in 1503 by a certain Spanish explorer known as Vasco Da Gama! Rather, a ship under his command known as The Ascension. These islands soon became an essential trading point between Asia and Africa. It was the French that officially took control of the islands in the 18th century. In fact, Seychelles gets its name from Jean Moreau De Sechelles, the then Finance Minister of France. Eventually, the British then took over the island operations and the islands were officially surrendered by France following the War Of The Coalitions. The nation finally became independent 2 centuries later in 1976 and Seychelles became a republic, and during this time became a hub for tourism with the opening of the international airport. </span></p>
<p><b>COVID info </b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While a trip to Seychelles is now certainly possible thanks to the travel bubble between India and Seychelles, there are certain regulations to be followed by travellers before arrival, upon arrival and during their stay in Seychelles. This Seychelles travel guide for 2021 also has some updated information about travelling in the travel bubble from India to Seychelles. </span></p>
<ol>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> It is preferable for all visitors to be vaccinated (at least two doses) before entering Seychelles and also procure a vaccination certificate.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> All visitors are required to obtain a negative RT-PCR certificate regardless of their vaccinations.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;"> You&#8217;ll also be required to obtain a Health Travel Authorisation (HTA) Certificate through the online portal here:</span><a href="https://seychelles.govtas.com/"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">https://seychelles.govtas.com/</span></a></li>
</ol>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Along with these, you of course also have to maintain social distancing and ideally visit places that are not too crowded which is, of course, an easy task considering how isolated and pristine these islands are! And if you let us choose a destination retreat for you, there’s every assurance that your trip will be a completely private, safe, and luxurious one. </span></p>
<p><b>How to get there </b><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Visa info: </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Indians luckily can avail a visa on arrival when visiting Seychelles, so you do not have to worry about immigration when planning your Seychelles trip in 2021. The visa lasts for 30 days. You will need to show your onward and return tickets at the counter along with your booking details which we will assist with. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Flights To Seychelles: </span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Most major cities have flights to Seychelles from India. There are two major airports in Seychelles, one in Mahe and one in Praslin. We recommend entry in Mahe as it makes getting around a bit easier since Mahe is a major city. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span><b><br />
</b><b>Areas of Seychelles</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The islands here of course are the most coveted locations of Seychelles. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You have Mahe, the capital. Mahe is home to more than just pristine beaches; visit here for a slice of Seychelles history. Visit the city of Victoria if you want to relax for a day or two exploring the markets and the local culture! </span></p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-7465 size-full" src="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="500" srcset="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78.jpg 750w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78-300x200.jpg 300w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78-24x16.jpg 24w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78-36x24.jpg 36w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78-100x67.jpg 100w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78-150x100.jpg 150w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1616589669177-7213a91ebb78-600x400.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Then there’s Praslin, the second biggest island. Home to the largest coconut in the world (and many other such unique oddities), hop on a private boat and visit Praslin and its tropical rainforests and isolated beaches. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">La Digue is the smallest of Seychelle’s populated islands. It has some of the most pristine waters of all the locations owing to its small population. You must not miss the Anse Source D’Argent beach here! </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Grande Soeur and Petite Soeur (Big sister and little sister) islands are home to an isolated ecosystem and are home to annual turtle nesting sites!  </span></p>
<p><b>What To Do:</b> <span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Breezy water and sandy escapes may be one of the highlights of Seychelles but there&#8217;s so much more to explore among these comfy atolls! Here’s a list of what to do in your Seychelles travel guide for 2021. </span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Feed the famed Giant Tortoises of Aldabra:</span> <span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-7461 size-full" src="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1593427264193-1d7bba99d577.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="500" srcset="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1593427264193-1d7bba99d577.jpg 750w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1593427264193-1d7bba99d577-300x200.jpg 300w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1593427264193-1d7bba99d577-24x16.jpg 24w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1593427264193-1d7bba99d577-36x24.jpg 36w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1593427264193-1d7bba99d577-100x67.jpg 100w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1593427264193-1d7bba99d577-150x100.jpg 150w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1593427264193-1d7bba99d577-600x400.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Aldabra Atoll is the world’s second-largest coral reef. It’s also home to the Aldabra Giant Tortoises, a miracle of evolution and a protected species here. You can visit Aldabra and interact with the tortoises, seeing as how this is one of the last places to meet these gentle, giant reptiles! </span><span style="font-weight: 400;"></p>
<p></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Go Scuba diving among the pristine coral reefs</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-7466 size-full" src="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1583212292454-1fe6229603b7.jpg" alt="" width="667" height="500" srcset="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1583212292454-1fe6229603b7.jpg 667w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1583212292454-1fe6229603b7-300x225.jpg 300w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1583212292454-1fe6229603b7-24x18.jpg 24w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1583212292454-1fe6229603b7-36x27.jpg 36w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1583212292454-1fe6229603b7-100x75.jpg 100w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1583212292454-1fe6229603b7-150x112.jpg 150w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/photo-1583212292454-1fe6229603b7-600x450.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 667px) 100vw, 667px" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With such a pristine collection of beaches and coral reefs, you can’t take a dive into these salubrious waters. Learn how to scuba dive with a PADI-certified instructor while staying there. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-weight: 400;">Visit the cities of Victoria and Praslin and learn all about the history of Seychelles! Hidden away in alleyways and gullies, you’ll find evidence of French, Portuguese, African, and British influences</span></li>
</ul>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Africa. The land that has inspired and continues to inspire in multiple facets of life. The continent of Africa is diverse, isolated, and enigmatic. It has one of the highest concentrations of wildlife in the world: More than one can count. It’s no wonder that <a href="https://starvacation.in/the-great-kenyan-fly-in-safari/">Africa safaris</a> are some of the most highly coveted safaris year-round. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While a great way to experience wildlife is certainly in the comfort of a jeep during game drives, there’s something lacking in this experience. The human touch, going back to your roots. This is something that only walking safaris in Africa can show you. Walking safaris in Africa are fast becoming a popular alternative <a href="https://starvacation.in/the-great-kenyan-fly-in-safari/">attraction in Africa in 2021</a>. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With that in mind, there are several walking safaris in Africa that range from a few hours to a few days across the great expanse. Here’s our guide to some of the walking safaris in Africa for 2021! </span></p>
<p><b>Great Walk Of Africa </b></p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-7243 size-full" title="Zebras in the wild in Africa" src="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/kenya-National-Park.jpg" alt="Zebras in the wild in Africa" width="750" height="500" srcset="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/kenya-National-Park.jpg 750w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/kenya-National-Park-300x200.jpg 300w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/kenya-National-Park-24x16.jpg 24w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/kenya-National-Park-36x24.jpg 36w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/kenya-National-Park-100x67.jpg 100w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/kenya-National-Park-600x400.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The most exclusive and exciting of them all. The Great Walk Of Africa takes place through the iconic Tsavo National Park of Kenya. This 160km odd walking safari also involves a few game drives but mostly you will be walking through the scrub jungle, some grasslands, and witnessing wildlife like no other. You’ll also be within close proximity to Mount Kilimanjaro, which makes the trek all the more special. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Witnessing the Big 5 is entirely possible on this <a href="https://starvacation.in/the-great-kenyan-fly-in-safari/">walking safari in Africa in 2021</a>, since you’ll be spending so much time close to the wildlife. Along with them, you’ll see expansive herds of zebras, giraffes wandering around sampling the acacia trees, and so on. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Accommodation during the Great Walk is typically in the form of luxury tents will an ensuite private shower and washroom. You’ll also be served all meals and beverages and typically a sundowner to enjoy as you marvel at the sun setting over the great African landscape. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Great Walk Of Africa is not to be missed for the ultimate experiential walking safari in Africa for 2021. </span></p>
<p><b>Kruger National Park </b><span style="font-weight: 400;"><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-7241" title="A mejastic lion in Kruger National Park South Africa" src="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/photo-1559303970-12386b970ef2.jpg" alt="A mejastic lion in Kruger National Park South Africa" width="495" height="490" srcset="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/photo-1559303970-12386b970ef2.jpg 505w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/photo-1559303970-12386b970ef2-300x297.jpg 300w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/photo-1559303970-12386b970ef2-109x109.jpg 109w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/photo-1559303970-12386b970ef2-100x100.jpg 100w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/photo-1559303970-12386b970ef2-24x24.jpg 24w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/photo-1559303970-12386b970ef2-36x36.jpg 36w" sizes="(max-width: 495px) 100vw, 495px" /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One of the most popular national parks for wildlife in Africa, Kruger National Park also boasts of a luxury walking safari that promises an experience like no other. Located Northeast of South Africa, Kruger is home to a whopping 130 odd mammals and nearly 500 species of birds which makes this walking safari in Africa one to be highly sought after. Walking safaris in Kruger typically last about 4 days. And while the majority of people line up to discover Kruger through game drives, a walking safari is more private and exclusive to give both you and the wildlife utmost privacy. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One of Botswana’s most unique experiences is the Chief&#8217;s Island Walking Safari. It takes place in the Okavango Delta, one of the most coveted areas for wildlife in all of Africa. Along with a walking safari in Africa, you also get to experience rides in a mokoro, a traditional dugout sailboat that the indigenous communities use here. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You may get to see a lot of water residents along with the big 5 and a huge number of wildlife besides this. This trail is also doable year round making it perfect for your walking safari in Africa for 2021. The Chief’s Island Walking Safari also takes you through Moremi National Park which once again promises to close up encounters of wildlife. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Expect this walking safari in Africa to be around 3 to 4 nights and of moderate difficulty. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Walking through the Serengeti National Park to encounter wildlife firsthand is something that people would dismiss as impossible or maybe even unheard of. But the Serengeti Traverse leaves behind all the chaos and cacophony of the urban life and takes you on an adventure that promises to be isolated, exclusive, minimally luxurious, and overall something that will leave you enchanted for the rest of your life, choosing to come back to Africa again and again. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Taking place over 10 days, there are no other people or vehicles on your journey through the Serengeti. In order to reduce the impact on the environment, minimal camping equipment and utilities are carried along with you. You will be accompanied by veteran guides that belong to the local communities, knowing the land as they have known for generations. </span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For a change of landscape, why don’t you move away from the South and move towards the Congo? These vast lush jungles are home to the world’s most enigmatic great ape, the Virunga Gorilla. These magnificent apes now live here in relative peace away from the path of poachers, and the only way to get up close to them is through an exclusive walking safari! You will be accompanied by a guide who will get you up close and personal to some of the gorillas although precautions will have to be taken. </span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1><span style="font-size: 24pt; color: #000000;">Serengeti National Park</span></h1>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">The immensely spectacular Serengeti National Park was established nearly a hundred years ago as a large colonial reserve, which was then made into a national park in the year 1951, and later endorsed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in the year 1979. One of the last remaining sites of the beautiful untouched wilderness on Planet Earth and Africa, it lies securely in the Serengeti Ecosystem, an area that stretches from the vast woodlands, Stillwater lakes and grassy plains of Ndutu in Southern Serengeti, to the Northern verdant river expanse till the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya. This immensely large ecosystem covers an expanse of over 25,000 square kilometers, within which the Serengeti National Park itself consists of over 15,000 square kilometers in area, of protected African treasures, to be discovered on a dream Safari vacation to Tanzania. Any ecosystem is composed of interlinked and interdependent phenomena, including the topography, climate and situation, the wildlife and the effects of human usage. The climate of the Serengeti is defined by periods of rain and drought. The geography of the area ranges from apparently limitless grass plains in the south, fertilized by volcanic ash rich in life-giving phosphates, to wooded highlands in the east, crossed by rivers and studded with island outcrops or kopjes of eroded granite, home to hundreds of vulnerable inhabitants such as the rare black rhinoceros.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">Across these magnificently large plains, range a fantastic cast of wild fauna, including impressively huge numbers of herbivores, predators and avifauna.  Amongst them, the principal actors are blue wildebeest or gnu (also known as the white-bearded wildebeest), determining the nature of the ecosystem by their spectacular annual Great Migration, “The Greatest Show Of The Natural World”, during which they trek in circumambulation, in their millions, three thousand two hundred kilometers from northern Tanzania to south-western Kenya and back again, as the plains dry out seasonally, forcing them to seek fresh pastures. In turn, their odyssey affects other creatures. Lions, jackals, hyenas, leopards and cheetahs prey on the migrating and resident herds. Vultures subsist on the predators’ leavings. The herds leave tons of dung which enriches the grasslands, providing food and nurseries for many varieties of dung beetles. Serengeti National Park is a wonderland in which to experience the interwoven miracles of life and death on a wondrous East African safari adventure.</span></p>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-5977 size-full" src="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Serengeti-National-Park-Tanzania.png" alt="" width="719" height="720" srcset="https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Serengeti-National-Park-Tanzania.png 719w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Serengeti-National-Park-Tanzania-300x300.png 300w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Serengeti-National-Park-Tanzania-150x150.png 150w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Serengeti-National-Park-Tanzania-109x109.png 109w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Serengeti-National-Park-Tanzania-100x100.png 100w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Serengeti-National-Park-Tanzania-24x24.png 24w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Serengeti-National-Park-Tanzania-36x36.png 36w, https://starvacation.in/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Serengeti-National-Park-Tanzania-600x601.png 600w" sizes="(max-width: 719px) 100vw, 719px" /></span></h2>
<h2 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">Experiencing the great migration of Wildebeests &#8211; A Paradise Sight Worth Witnessing</span></h2>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">There is still a place on this planet Earth where life is still the same as it was in the beginning, a place where life still scintillates and marvels you. To the Maasai tribe who are the pastoral people of the Ngorongoro and the Serengeti, this is the place where the land runs on forever, a land suspended in the warping loop of time, suspended endlessly and the last refuge for the largest concentration of wildlife left on Planet Earth. Serengeti National Park hosts an endless array of grassy plains, woodlands and hills dotted with glorious animals of all shapes, colours and sizes on every side. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Long ago, before the age of man, there were mountains to the east of this natural wildlife refuge that spurted their fury, laying a long and thick blanket of volcanic ash. Entire mountain ranges were buried, leaving only the mountain summits as lone markers of an ancient world, long lost. Over the course of four million years, ash turned to rich soil yielding vast grasslands, and today cradling some of the most important animal species on earth. Yet of this richly diverse habitat, one species stands out from all others, as it is the foundation of the wildlife ecosystem in the Serengeti. With herds reaching over one million, it is the wildebeest that affects many other species. Often called the Serengeti Clown, the wildebeests are magnificently endowed, ready for their endless search of rich grasslands and freshwater. Alongside this massive population of wildebeest, co-exist other herbivores, equally drawn by the rich and varied vegetation of the Serengeti. The Serengeti, ruled by simplest of life’s principles, where herbivores eat plants, and carnivores eat herbivores, thus resulting in the magnificently rich animal life diversification; a paradise, where lions and cheetah hunt with might and stealth, a great generosity offered by the enormous wildebeest herds, where nothing is left to waste here on the Serengeti plains.</span></span></p>

<h2 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">The Great Migration &#8211; Grumeti, Mara Rivers, Lobo Wilderness and Central Seronera</span></h2>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">In the very short, rainy season, the Wildebeest herds grow stronger and stronger on the shorter grassier plains of the Southern Serengeti, including the Kusini, Ndutu, Masek and the Maswa wilderness. But soon as the lack of water and pasture deepens around the end of April, it demands movement, a huge defining moment for the Wildebeest herds, whether to choose between migration or starvation. For nearly one a half million of these incredible animals, this becomes a race against death, against crippling hunger and thirst. The herds are accompanied by zebras and gazelles and drive towards the incredible  Grumeti River west and Mara River north via central Seronera bypass, drawn toward Mother Nature’s promise of water and grass. This epic yearly journey takes place between the two African countries of Tanzania and Kenya. The wildebeest herds migrate north towards the famed Masai Mara Reserve in southwestern Kenya, where they roam for three to four months (July, August, September to parts of October) until the rains resume and then migrate back to eastern Lobo Serengeti, becoming a deadly gauntlet of predator versus herbivore that lasts more than eight hundred kilometers or five hundred miles.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">To the Southeastern part of the Serengeti National Park, lies the Ngorongoro crater, which is a large volcanic caldera encompassing nearly hundred square miles of the most fertile and agriculturally rich land. Entombed in an Eden lie rich forests and foraging vegetation, an abundant feast for resident animal species. Hippopotamus, rhinos and thousands of other animals make their home here, others only migrate for the season, for example, pink flamingos. But, like other ecosystems, dangers lurk here too. The Ngorongoro Crater offers refuge to endangered species like the black rhino, who endures this limited paradise, as it offers protection against poachers who hunt the rhino for its precious horn, while at the same time offering a banquet of options for the ever prideful lion. Serengeti ecology is also known as the ‘Cradle Of Mankind’. It was here in the southeastern plains near Ngorongoro lies Olduvai Gorge and Laetoli, wherein lies a human fossil record that dates back to almost around three million and seven hundred thousand years. Today, it is the proud Maasai people that dwell here, following the pastoralist lifestyle of their chaperoned wildlife friends, the wildebeest.</span></p>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">Where to stay in Serengeti &#8211; </span></h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">Accommodations in Serengeti come in two main types, lodges and varied tented camps, and in 3 Safari Tiers from super luxurious, deluxe mid-range to value cost-conscious. Premier tented camps in Serengeti top the Safari Tier 1 accommodation like Sayari Camp in the north, Sabora Tented Camp by Singita in the west, Migration Camp in the east, Kusini Camp in the south and more. All range with opulent private living space, beautifully furnished and immaculately presented with every yesteryear amenity laid on, often including butler service, massage, king-sized beds, Victorian bathtubs, sumptuous cuisine and highly skilled experienced guides. What makes them such memorable luxury gems for guests is their unobtrusive integration into wilderness. Small, exclusive, intimate, boutique and isolated, they are ecologically responsible and guest-centred to ensure the most rewarding, ultra-comfortable and richly satisfying nature vacations in Africa. These are epitome destination lodgings for unparalleled game viewing and photography. The deluxe Safari Tier 2 canvas accommodations in Serengeti like Buffalo Luxury Camp in the east, Lake Masek Tented Camp in the south have more rooms with more guests in camp, offering slightly less flexibility of organized activities than the premier accommodations but still aspire to the very good standards of service and attention to detail. Value tented camps like Kati Kati Camp in central Serengeti have several campgrounds but are away from each other. These modest camps are set at Safari Tier 3 specifically for budget-conscious guests geared towards economies of scale with no-frill services and standards. They bargain fair value with the least personalization and rigid timetables to accommodate higher numbers of guests in their varied campsites but still reflect the concept of Edwardian safari comfort but bearing no resemblance to rough back-packing.</span></p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">Experience a hot air balloon Safari in Serengeti &#8211; </span></h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">A Serengeti balloon safari is a fantastic once in a lifetime experience, particularly suitable for a bird’s eye-view game viewing experience on your wildlife tour in northern Tanzania. Hot air balloon rides leave from three sites in this prime national park. In Central Serengeti, wildlife gathers year-round in the Seronera River Valley where there is permanent water. The Great Migration passes through around May and June. The Western Serengeti includes the Grumeti River, scene of theatrical crossings during the Great Migration in June and July, when hundreds of thousands of gnu, brave the giant Nile crocodiles, and many perish while others detour to avoid the perilous river. In South Serengeti plains, the wildebeests assemble from December onwards, to calve in February, producing 8000 newborn every day on a three-week marathon, a sight not to be missed on your personalized nature travel in Serengeti. The plains of the Serengeti are particularly suited to balloon flights which are particularly convenient, letting you get aerially closer and distinctly accessible to the action than you could be by a game-viewing safari vehicle.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">Conditions are favorable early every morning, but you are advised to pre-book this popular activity for your safari holiday to East Africa due to its limited seating availability. Unfortunately, only children over seven and active adults can be accommodated. Because weight is a crucial safety consideration, passengers weighing over one hundred and twenty kilos may need to reserve two places. The balloons are immense. Baskets are compartmented for comfort and security, accommodating sixteen people for each one-hour voyage. The price reflects the enormous cost of the balloons due to a safety replacement every few hundred hours, equivalent to swapping with a high-end automobile. High fees are payable to the national park for tourist concessions for every single passenger. A skilled, experienced and licensed pilot and staff of twenty people are needed for each trip, including launching and recovery as well as transport to and from the launch and celebratory champagne breakfast. Each flight is unique, some high enough to view the panoramic landscape for miles ahead, others low enough to see individual animals at close quarters. It is not a cheap excursion, but it will make your northern Tanzania vacation one of the most memorable of your whole life. It is possible to charter special private balloon flights in the Grumeti Reserve for honeymoon couples on their romantic trip in the great plains of Africa.</span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 24pt; color: #000000;"><b>Family Holiday in Kenya</b></span></h1>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">This is the famous land of the Masai Mara, Tsavo and the Taita Hills, Kenya has been long known for a long-standing commitment to the conservation of its national parks and wildlife. This is also the country of the Great Rift Valley, with stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro, Mombasa on the Indian Ocean and ancient human tribes such as the Maasai, Swahili, Samburu, Turkana and Kikuyu. For building a once in a lifetime family holiday, Kenya has two main attractions which are the many Safari lodges across the various national reserves such as the Masai Mara, the Samburu, and the Tsavo offer spectacular views of wildlife as well as a chance to immerse yourself in the culture and traditions of the ancient tribes. Several lodges even offer bush schools and warrior academies for budding boys and girls who want to be Maasai warriors and for their parents, of course! Secondly, the Kenyan coastline features white sand beaches and warm, Indian Ocean waters that make for an idyllic family beach holiday. The safari lodges and camps are generally more suited to older children, and many come with an age restriction against the twelve and under children. This is because some of the camps have potential risks to very young children such as no fencing, proximity to rivers, steep steps or high walkways. Very early starts, late finishes and long days in a very bumpy vehicle can be a challenge for young children. Older children will not think twice, inevitably distracted by all the exciting wildlife and scenery that’s on offer. There are several coastal resorts, especially in Mombasa, which mainly offer some ideal family-friendly destinations and are ideal if you are looking for a highly luxurious family holiday in Kenya. The kids can be kept entertained with the games and provided by the hotel and their highly qualified staff while their parents relax with a massage in the hotel.  Dining at both the safari lodges and beach resorts often involves buffet food which caters to a variety of taste buds, keeping everyone fed and happy! </span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 24pt; color: #000000;"><b><i>Trekking Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania</i></b></span></h1>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">The snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania is not only Africa’s but the world’s highest free-standing mountain at 19,341 feet or 5,895 meters. It is also the world’s tallest walkable mountain, and what a glorious enjoyable walk it is! To reach the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, one must traverse through five distinct climate zones ranging from Alpine deserts to Rainforests, and eventually glacial Arctic zone. Although it is very much possible to trek and climb Mount Kilimanjaro without any previous mountaineering experience, training or equipment, summiting the highest roof in <a href="https://starvacation.in/best-experiences-of-africa/">Africa</a> is not an easy task. </span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Find a <a href="http://www.starvacation.in">travel agency in Africa</a> &#8211; </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">The highly qualified experts say that only 65% of climbers make it to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. You have a greater chance of success if you choose the right tour operator. According to the laws and customs of Tanzania, it is compulsory to climb Mount Kilimanjaro with a guide only. Organised tours and guides offer a better experience and backup in case of an emergency, whereas local independent guides come at slightly cheaper rates. Tour operators vary from diligent to downright negligent, so it is of utmost priority to choose safety over cost in case of an emergency. Avoid low-end companies which offer tour operators and make sure to check the operator’s reviews and success rate before deciding.</span></span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Time Your Trip &#8211; </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Mount Kilimanjaro is trekkable all year long, but there are some months which offer a more comfortable experience and climb. Tanzanian weather patterns show us that there are two optimum seasons for climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, from January to March and from June to October. During the months between January and March, the weather is cooler, and the routes are less crowded. From June to October, the weather is warmer, and the mountain routes are busier, and there is a lot of hustle due to the season coinciding with the Northern Hemisphere summer holidays. It is best to avoid the wet rainy months of April, May and November but warm clothing is essential for the trek all year round. It is ideal to book well in advance for peak season trips with the safest tour operator for the most pleasant journey.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Prepare for success &#8211; </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Although mountaineering training isn’t entirely necessary to trek Mount Kilimanjaro, a reasonable level of body fitness goes a long way for Mount Kilimanjaro. If you lack in this department, a few months of fitness training and stamina development would be an add on before your trek to Mount Kilimanjaro. Practice hikes can also help you acclimatise in your mountain boots and avoid the possibility of the development of blisters. Exertion at high altitude can also affect your body in various ways so it is best to check with a doctor and get a medical check-up done before the trek upon arrival to Tanzania. Comprehensive travel insurance is necessary for your trek, make sure your travel insurance plan includes cover for medical treatment and emergency evacuation by helicopter is needed.</span></span><b></b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Choose your route for trekking Mount Kilimanjaro &#8211; </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">There are mainly seven routes that lead you to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. Each trail varies in terms of difficulty, scenic beauty and tourist traffic, and choosing the ideal route for yourself is the most important part of the planning process. The timings depend upon which route you pick with hikes taking anywhere between five to ten days. The routes with the highest success rate of reaching the summit are those which take longer and ascend at a gradual rate allowing the climbers and trekkers to acclimate their body to the changing climate and altitude conditions of the mountain.</span></span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b><i>The seven different routes to trek Mount Kilimanjaro &#8211;</i></b></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Marangu &#8211; </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">This route is known as the Coca Cola route, and is also the easiest route to trek Mount Kilimanjaro. It is traditionally considered the easiest with a gradual slope and communal sleeping huts located at strategic positions along the way. It takes a minimum of five days to climb, although success rates for this time frame are lower. Despite its reputation, experts do not recommend trekking via the Marangu route because it is the most crowded of all the routes and the least scenic route.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Machame</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> &#8211; This route is also known as the Whiskey route and was opened as a tougher alternative to the Marangu route and has replaced Mount Kilimanjaro’s oldest and most popular route for adventurous climbers. This route can get pretty crowded, especially at bottlenecks in the rainforest section, but it is steeper and has a higher success rate than the Marangu route. You will need at least six days to trek the Machame route, preferably seven if you want to trek Kilimanjaro at a steady pace. The Machame route is the most affordable route too. </span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Lemosho &#8211; </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">As one of the mountain&#8217;s newer routes, Lemosho comes highly recommended by trusted operators like Thomson and Ultimate Kilimanjaro. It sees far fewer crowds than Marangu and Machame, standing out for its unparalleled scenery with panoramic views from all sides of the mountain. This route takes a minimum of six days, although eight to nine days is recommended. Plenty of time for acclimatisation and a daytime summit bid explain Lemosho&#8217;s high success rate.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Northern Circuit &#8211; </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Those with plenty of time to spare should consider the Northern Circuit. Kilimanjaro&#8217;s newest route takes nine days and virtually circumnavigates the mountain, making it the longest choice both in terms of time and distance travelled. The extra days spent at mid-altitude allow for plenty of acclimatization, which in turn leads to an excellent summit success rate. This is also the most remote route, with magnificent scenery including elevated views into neighbouring <a href="https://starvacation.in/family-holiday-in-kenya/">Kenya</a>.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Rongai &#8211; </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Rongai is the only route to approach Kilimanjaro from the north, near the Kenyan border. It sees relatively few climbers and is a particularly good choice if you decide to travel during the rainy season as the mountain&#8217;s northern face sees the least precipitation. Cons include the fact that the scenery is not as varied as some of the other routes and the fact that the descent takes you down the crowded Marangu route. Rongai takes six to seven days to complete.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Shira</b><span style="font-weight: 400;"> &#8211; </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Shira route approaches the mountain from the west and is nearly identical to the Lemosho route. The only difference is that instead of starting the trek at the Londorossi Gate, climbers are transported by vehicle to the Shira Gate at 11,800 feet or 3,600 meters. This allows you to skip the initial section of the climb but also puts you at greater risk of altitude sickness due to the relatively high starting point. This route takes between seven and ten days.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Umbwe </b><b>&#8211; </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">As the most challenging of the Kilimanjaro trekking routes, Umbwe is only recommended for experienced climbers who are confident in their ability to acclimatise quickly. It takes a minimum of six days and involves steep, difficult slopes with a rapid ascent profile. You&#8217;ll also be making your summit bid under cover of darkness. Because of this, Umbwe has a low success rate. However, it is also one of the least crowded and most visually impressive routes.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Pack Carefully for your trip &#8211; </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">It is very important to find the balance between packing light and making sure that you have every essential thing that you need for your trek to Mount Kilimanjaro. Layers are crucial given the diversity of Mount Kilimanjaro’s climate. You&#8217;ll need sun protection for the lower reaches, and warm clothes for the summit. A good quality sleeping bag is essential, as is a basic first aid kit (your operator should provide more extensive safety equipment, including oxygen and a defibrillator). It is possible to rent equipment on-site, although quality and fit vary greatly. Remember to pack spare batteries for your camera, and photocopies of your passport and insurance documents.</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Get acclimated with the altitude &#8211;  </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">Altitude sickness is the single biggest reason for failed summit attempts on Kilimanjaro. The best way to acclimatise to the mountain&#8217;s extreme altitude is to choose a route that ascends gradually, taking six days or longer. Certain medications (like Diamox and ibuprofen) may help to lessen the effects of altitude sickness, while hydration (preferably with purified water) is also important. Altitude sickness can affect anyone, regardless of your training or fitness, and as such, you must recognise the symptoms. These include headaches, dizziness, nausea, fatigue, and shortness of breath. Read up on the effects in advance and be prepared to descend if necessary, remembering that the most serious form of altitude sickness can be fatal.</span></span><b></b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><b>Budgeting for your trip to Mount Kilimanjaro &#8211;  </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">A Kilimanjaro trek can cost anywhere from USD 2400 to USD 8000 USDacclimatise per person. This fee should include camping, food, guides, park fees, and transport to and from the mountain. You need to make sure that your food is decent, that your guides and porters are fairly treated and well trained and that you get a good night&#8217;s sleep. While the shorter routes are cheaper, your chances of reaching the summit are significantly reduced as a result of poor acclimatisation. If you opt for a &#8220;good deal&#8221; make absolutely sure that your guides and porters are well-equipped to handle emergencies.</span></span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">Africa is a continent which has numerous attractions. Holiday goers often choose <a href="https://starvacation.in/best-experiences-of-africa/">Africa</a> because of the warm, friendly and energetic people, natural wonders and a sunny climate. Due to this, millions of tourists visit Africa every year. The most interesting thing about Africa is what food the people eat in various regions. African cuisine is diverse and African foods are delicious and if you desire, decadent as well. Tasting the sumptuous dishes also opens your eyes to the gateway of the very essential tribes and races on Planet Earth today. The typical African meal pays a great deal of consideration to detail, and you will notice that the cooks employ a rich array of base ingredients, spices as well as other condiments to create a culinary paradise. Ranging from the desert lands in the North to the lush greens of the West and the Sahel plains of the East, Africa has a lot to offer on the dinner plate as every region will serve a delicacy that will surpass your expectations. Here are some of the tastiest foods to try in <a href="https://starvacation.in/wildlife-parks-in-africa/">Africa</a> &#8211;</span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><strong><span style="font-size: 18pt;">Jollof Rice (West Africa) </span></strong> &#8211; Jollof Rice is a meal prepared in the West African sub region where a fierce rivalry takes place between Nigerians, Ghanians and Sengalese people as to who makes the dish best, with the latter laying claim to own the most delicious variety.

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><strong><span style="font-size: 18pt;">Fufu (Ghana)</span> </strong>&#8211; Fufu is a Ghanian dish which is extremely difficult to make. The long process starts by pounding a Cassava and unripe plantains together with a big wooden pole and mashing them together while adding water. As it needs to be stirred vigorously and continuously, it requires two people to make it, one pounding it and the other moving it around in between the pounding. Once the mixture is smooth, it gets shaped into small balls that are then placed in a stew or soup with meat. Similar to the Tanzanian ugali, an indentation is made in the ball, used for scooping up the sauce, with fufu acting as a spoon. The texture is quite gummy and stretchy, while the flavour is bland, but dipping it into a stew gives fufu a spicy flavour that is slightly reminiscent of peanuts.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><strong><span style="font-size: 18pt;">Ugali (Tanzania) </span></strong> &#8211; This is an exceptionally unique, polenta-like side dish. It is a huge favourite among local Tanzanians. Made by rolling a tiny bit of creamy and thick cornmeal paste (made from cooked white maize) until it forms into a ball and making an indention in it with a thumb, Ugali becomes an edible spoon that is dipped into various other dishes, sauces and stews. The sign of an Ugali made well is that it shouldn’t stick to your fingers at all. The whole thing is usually dipped in a savoury sauce, then placed in the mouth for consumption. Ugali is more than just a taste; it is a food culture in itself. This dish is usually served with whatever meat is available, mashed vegetables, stews, or sour milk. It is found all throughout Africa, it is not just a Tanzanian dish, in South Africa, it is called ‘Pap’, in Zimbabwe, it is called ‘Sadza’, and in Zambia, it is called ‘Nshima’. Regardless of the name, this dish’s popularity in Africa is unparalleled.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;"><strong><span style="font-size: 18pt;">Serengeti National Park (Tanzania)</span></strong> &#8211; Apart from being one of the most famous national parks in Africa and the world, Serengeti National Park is also a famous UNESCO World Heritage Site. Such is the beauty of flora and fauna in Serengeti National Park that many even consider it to be a part of the eight wonders of the world. This national park serves to protect and preserve a major part of the country’s wildlife, flora and fauna. One of the most thrilling wildlife feats that take place every year here in Serengeti is the great Wildebeest migration, where about six million of these mighty beasts take part in this forty-kilometer long ritual that has existed for over millennia. Serengeti National Park is one of the best national parks in <a href="https://starvacation.in/top-foods-to-try-in-africa/">Africa</a> owing to the Wildebeest migration every year and the perfect natural balance between predator and prey. If you are lucky enough, you will also spot lions and wolves on the chase.</span></p>

When here at this South African national park, visitors can go camping, embark on extended Wildlife Safaris to witness wildlife in Africa, and find animals in their own natural habitat. From zebras to Cheetahs, to Elephants, to Black Rhinoceroses, there is an enormous number of species living here in this national park, within its boundaries. Other than wildlife, Etosha National Park is known for its highly hypnotic landscapes such as Savannahs, grasslands, dolomite hills, dry lake beds and many more. </span></p>

Like many national parks in Africa, the Kruger National Park also takes pride in being a grassroots animal breeding and conservation area. Other than wildlife spotting, visitors can also explore the incredibly unique and highly historical and archaeological sites within the boundaries of this park and witness pre-historic artefacts such as ancient Bushman paintings. Other than that, the Kruger National Park is also one of the best equipped National Parks in Africa due to the web cameras showing live animal activities, the gas stations, signposts and the restaurants which serve great African food.</span></p>

When you climb to the top of the Nyiragongo Volcano, you will be able to see a three-sixty degree view of the largest volcanic lake in the world. In fact, this National Park was featured in the 2014 documentary called ‘Virunga’ which showcased the park’s effort to protect the nearly extinct and rare mountain gorillas that live there. The motion picture also showed how dedicatedly the forest rangers work hard every day to ward off poachers. The Virunga National Park is also home to chimpanzees and lowland Gorillas. </span></p>

Among many of the major factors drawing people to this national park is that this is the largest national park in Africa and the world, and its most striking feature are its orange sand-dunes. One can easily spot really interesting wild creatures in this national park such as Hyenas, Jackals, rare insects, Snakes and Geckos despite the aridity of the region. The location of Namib &#8211; Naukluft National Park is close to the Atlantic coast, which helps this park extract the right amount of moisture to sustain its creatures and the animals living here.</span></p>

The name ‘Amboseli’ comes from a Maasai word meaning ‘salty dust’, and it is one of the best places in Africa to view large herds of elephants up close. Nature lovers can explore five different habitats here ranging from the dried-up bed of Lake Amboseli, wetlands with sulphur springs, the savannah and woodlands.  They can also visit the local Maasai community who live around the park and experience their authentic culture.</span></span></p>

Established in 1959 as multiple land-use areas, with wildlife coexisting with semi-nomadic Maasai pastoralists practising traditional livestock grazing, it includes the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater, the world’s largest caldera. The property has global importance for biodiversity conservation due to the presence of globally threatened species, the density of wildlife inhabiting the area, and the annual migration of wildebeest, zebra, gazelles and other animals into the northern plains. Extensive archaeological research has also yielded a long sequence of evidence of human evolution and human-environment dynamics, including early hominid footprints dating back 3.6 million years.</span></span></p>

Apart from a spectacular setting, the park is famous for its unusual tree-climbing lions and the vast elephant herds it was established to protect. The shores of the lake, encrusted with pink flamingo, attract more than four hundred species of birds, many of them waterfowl or migrants. Large herds of buffalo, cheetah, Masai giraffe and impala roam the lake shores and the forested valley slopes. A Lake Manyara safari is a fascinating experience, as the park also features a ground-water forest, acacia tortilis woodland and hot springs called Maji Moto. Troops of several hundred olive baboons appear alongside Sykes monkey and short-eared galago. Cape clawless otters, Egyptian mongoose, hippo and klipspringer are other park residents.</span></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt; color: #000000;">Swaziland is the smallest country of Southern Africa. It is one of the monarchies in Africa, which has a rich local culture and heritage. Bushfire is the internationally famous  music and art festival which gives the  experience of  what the country is all about.  Every year, approximately 25000 people attend this musical treat to listen to Africa’s top artists and contribute to the promotion of social responsibility.
