]]>This is a pristine and remote African game reserve in Northern Kenya, and it’s home to the Samburu Special Five: Grevy’s Zebra, Somali Ostriches, Giraffes, Beisa Oryx, and Gerenuk. The big cats and African wild dogs, to mention a few, wrap Samburu’s dramatic scenery.
Ruaha is the largest national park in Tanzania. However, the vast wilderness has very few safari lodges making it a more exclusive and secluded place to get away from it all. While here, you can enjoy the vast elephant population of about 10,000 and hot air balloon safaris. Furthermore, it’s a dramatic scenery with varied habitats; from gentle hills and baobab groves to the great Ruaha River and open savannahs.
Lewa leads in community-based wildlife conservation in Kenya, and it’s home to endangered rhino and Grevy zebras. You can enjoy guided horseback, camelback, and walking safaris through diverse habitats such as forests, grasslands, and woodlands. It’s home to over 440 birds of species recorded and over 70 species of different mammals.
Selous, located South of Tanzania, is an hour’s drive south of Dar es Salaam. It’s one of the largest protected areas in Africa, housing populations of large mammals, and its dramatic landscapes and varied habitats give it an exceptional diversity drawcard.

]]>If you’re looking for a place to visit that will have you as far as possible from all civilization (while still keeping your feet on dry land), there’s no better place to go than the island of Tristan da Cunha in the south Atlantic Ocean.
This British overseas territory is located over 1,500 miles from the coast of South Africa and over 2,000 miles off of the coast of Argentina, meaning that there is truly nothing close. What’s more is that it takes quite a journey to even get here, with the only way to access the island being a six-day boat trip from South Africa.
With a population of under 300, you’ll definitely be able to escape and just get away from it all while in Tristan da Cunha. Don’t think that there’s nothing to do on this remote island, however.
One of the best ways to get to know this land is to simply stay with and talk to its people. With no hotels or hostels, your best bet for lodging is to stay with a local family. They’ll likely prepare you a local feast or drive you around to some of the island’s highlights, such as its volcanic black sand beaches.
You can also choose to hike up the island’s volcano, which towers over 6,000 feet into the sky.
If you can visit this remote place, do so! It’s truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
