Imagine walking the same streets that pharaohs once did. In Cairo, history is embedded in the very fabric of the city. The city is a treasure trove for anyone with a curiosity for the past, and here are three historical destinations you simply can’t miss.

The Pyramids of Giza

No visit to Cairo is complete without a trip to the Pyramids of Giza, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Located just outside Cairo, the complex includes the Great Pyramid of Khufu, the Pyramid of Khafre, and the Pyramid of Menkaure. These pyramids are architectural marvels, showcasing the incredible engineering skills of the ancient Egyptians. 

The Egyptian Museum

The Egyptian Museum is one of the world’s most important repositories of ancient artifacts. The highlights of the museum include the treasures of Tutankhamun and mummies of the pharaohs. Plus, countless statues, jewels, and artifacts tell the story of Egypt’s fascinating past. 

Islamic Cairo

South Africa is a land of breathtaking landscapes and incredible wildlife. A safari adventure here promises encounters with some of the most iconic animals on Earth. So get your binoculars out and see if you can spot these five beauties.

The Majestic Lion

King of the jungle and a symbol of Africa’s wilderness, the lion is a must-see on any safari. Witnessing a pride lounging in the golden savanna or stalking prey across the grasslands is an experience that will leave you awestruck.

The Gentle Giant

African elephants are the largest land animals on the planet. Encountering a herd of these magnificent creatures browsing or bathing in a watering hole is a humbling sight. 

The Powerhouse of the Plains

The African buffalo is a formidable grazer, often seen in large herds. Don’t be fooled by their grazing demeanor. These powerful animals are surprisingly agile and have a reputation for fierce defense.

The Elusive Cat

Leopards are the most secretive of the big cats, perfectly adapted for camouflage. Spotting one perched on a branch or stalking prey in the tall grass is a true safari highlight. 

The Prehistoric Relic

Seeing a rhinoceros with its thick hide and prehistoric appearance is like stepping back in time. South Africa is home to both white and black rhinoceros, both critically endangered but making a comeback thanks to conservation efforts.

Many people who have never ventured to the African continent are convinced that lions and elephants roam the streets. Some even believe it when Africans joke that they travel to work or school on a pet giraffe. The truth is that many cities in Africa are incredibly cosmopolitan, featuring skyscrapers, highways, large shopping malls, and fancy restaurants. And no, there is no wildlife strolling around. 

Except, as it were, in this video. The clip shows a young cheetah casually walking around a resort lounge in Limpopo, South Africa as if it were the most natural thing in the world! The people sitting at the table on the balcony look far from alarmed, and there even seems to be another wild cat in the background.

@jacog9 African beauty 🇿🇦 #viral #nature #africa #cheetah #pet #fyp #southafrica #SAMA28 #southafricatiktok #explore #viralvideo #foryou #lifestyle #nofilter ♬ Asimbonanga – Johnny Clegg & Savuka

According to the TikTok user who posted the video, which he captioned “King of Speed”, the cheetah is now older and lives in the wild where she hunts for food. 

To prove that a predatory animal being in close proximity is not a normal occurrence, fellow users of the app took to the comments section to share their shock. 

“I would have been on the table in a sec, as if that would have helped,” wrote one. Another quipped, “I would have died 5 times.”

Overall, commenters laughed at how the video has done nothing to debunk the belief that Africans have wildlife as pets.

“Y’all are really making it hard for us to prove we don’t chill with wild animals, how can we defend ourselves after this now.”

Rest assured—most animals like these are confined to zoos and in the bush on safari!

When you are visiting a new country, you probably have an idea about the places you want to go to. However, things often get a bit more complicated when you are looking to visit a continent like Africa for the first time. With so many destinations to choose from,  zeroing in on one can be quite overwhelming. To help you out a bit, we decided to pick out the top three countries you should cross off the list first.

Egypt

Egypt is an easy choice as it offers so many different things to choose from. If you are a history nerd, then Cairo, Giza, and Alexandria are places to be. Check out the pyramids and ancient tombs, and see how human civilization evolved. But you can also get a relaxing vacation in Egypt. Simply head to Sharm El Sheikh and enjoy one of its many resorts.

Tanzania

If you want to see the natural wonders of Africa, consider Tanzania. The country’s Serengeti National Park offers one of the most impressive safari experiences in Africa, with the opportunity to see all the Big Five game animals. It is also home to Mount Kilimanjaro, the continent’s highest mountain that offers a spectacular climbing experience. 

South Africa

South Africa offers an amazing tourist experience. If you want to explore museums and enjoy cultural offerings, book a trip to Cape Town. Kruger National Park will give you an opportunity to marvel at natural beauties and diverse wildlife, while Johannesburg has a bit of everything.

The northernmost country in Africa situated on the Mediterranean coast, Tunisia is a beautiful, sun-drenched country located surprisingly close to Europe. Full of history, beaches, and tantalizing sights, sounds, smells, and flavors, Tunisia is incredibly enticing for tourists. Here are just a few of the reasons why.

The Food

A unique combination of Arabic, Mediterranean, and French influences, Tunisian cuisine is something you simply have to try, with lots of slow-cooked meats, couscous, and spices to make your palate sing. You’ll also have to try Brik, a thin, deep-fried pastry filled with eggs, chopped onion, tuna, harissa, and parsley.

The Beaches

One of the things Tunisia is most known for is its beaches, with resorts all over the country in locations like Bizerte, Sousse, Kelibia, Monastir, Djerba, and Hammamet all offering a high standard of accommodation and even some exciting activities like parachuting, scuba diving, and jet-skiing.

The Desert

Tunisia is also a great place from which to explore the Sahara desert, with breathtaking sites you can arrive at on a jeep, camel, or donkey. Plus, fun fact: this is where Star Wars was filmed!

What Would You Do If a Cheetah Sauntered Across Your Path? https://travelermaster.com/what-would-you-do-if-a-cheetah-sauntered-across-your-path/ Thu, 26 Jan 2023 16:31:00 +0000 https://travelermaster.com/?p=26622 Many people who have never ventured to the African continent are convinced that lions and elephants roam the streets.

Many people who have never ventured to the African continent are convinced that lions and elephants roam the streets. Some even believe it when Africans joke that they travel to work or school on a pet giraffe. The truth is that many cities in Africa are incredibly cosmopolitan, featuring skyscrapers, highways, large shopping malls, and fancy restaurants. And no, there is no wildlife strolling around. 

Except, as it were, in this video. The clip shows a young cheetah casually walking around a resort lounge in Limpopo, South Africa as if it were the most natural thing in the world! The people sitting at the table on the balcony look far from alarmed, and there even seems to be another wild cat in the background.

According to the TikTok user who posted the video, which he captioned “King of Speed”, the cheetah is now older and lives in the wild where she hunts for food. 

To prove that a predatory animal being in close proximity is not a normal occurrence, fellow users of the app took to the comments section to share their shock. 

“I would have been on the table in a sec, as if that would have helped,” wrote one. Another quipped, “I would have died 5 times.”

Overall, commenters laughed at how the video has done nothing to debunk the belief that Africans have wildlife as pets.

“Y’all are really making it hard for us to prove we don’t chill with wild animals, how can we defend ourselves after this now.”

Rest assured—most animals like these are confined to zoos and in the bush on safari!

When you are visiting a new country, you probably have an idea about the places you want to go to. However, things often get a bit more complicated when you are looking to visit a continent like Africa for the first time. With so many destinations to choose from,  zeroing in on one can be quite overwhelming. To help you out a bit, we decided to pick out the top three countries you should cross off the list first.

Egypt

Egypt is an easy choice as it offers so many different things to choose from. If you are a history nerd, then Cairo, Giza, and Alexandria are places to be. Check out the pyramids and ancient tombs, and see how human civilization evolved. But you can also get a relaxing vacation in Egypt. Simply head to Sharm El Sheikh and enjoy one of its many resorts.

Tanzania

If you want to see the natural wonders of Africa, consider Tanzania. The country’s Serengeti National Park offers one of the most impressive safari experiences in Africa, with the opportunity to see all the Big Five game animals. It is also home to Mount Kilimanjaro, the continent’s highest mountain that offers a spectacular climbing experience. 

South Africa

South Africa offers an amazing tourist experience. If you want to explore museums and enjoy cultural offerings, book a trip to Cape Town. Kruger National Park will give you an opportunity to marvel at natural beauties and diverse wildlife, while Johannesburg has a bit of everything.

The northernmost country in Africa situated on the Mediterranean coast, Tunisia is a beautiful, sun-drenched country located surprisingly close to Europe. Full of history, beaches, and tantalizing sights, sounds, smells, and flavors, Tunisia is incredibly enticing for tourists. Here are just a few of the reasons why.

The Food

A unique combination of Arabic, Mediterranean, and French influences, Tunisian cuisine is something you simply have to try, with lots of slow-cooked meats, couscous, and spices to make your palate sing. You’ll also have to try Brik, a thin, deep-fried pastry filled with eggs, chopped onion, tuna, harissa, and parsley.

The Beaches

One of the things Tunisia is most known for is its beaches, with resorts all over the country in locations like Bizerte, Sousse, Kelibia, Monastir, Djerba, and Hammamet all offering a high standard of accommodation and even some exciting activities like parachuting, scuba diving, and jet-skiing.

The Desert

Tunisia is also a great place from which to explore the Sahara desert, with breathtaking sites you can arrive at on a jeep, camel, or donkey. Plus, fun fact: this is where Star Wars was filmed!
