An African safari often begins with a question: Where should we go? You may have the Serengeti, Victoria Falls or the Okavango Delta in mind, but it can be difficult to picture how these places fit together. A map gives you a useful starting point.
Our African safari map overview lets you explore the continent, look more closely at Kenya and Tanzania, and browse maps of individual safari destinations. As you plan, use the maps to think about the wildlife, landscapes and experiences you would most like to include.
Explore East Africa’s safari regions
Kenya and Tanzania offer some of Africa’s best-known wildlife experiences. Their maps help you place the Maasai Mara, Serengeti and other safari areas in context before choosing where to spend your time.
If the Great Migration is a priority, start with the Kenya and Tanzania maps on our overview page. They provide a visual introduction to the region. The movement of wildlife varies with rainfall and grazing conditions, so your travel dates and the experience you hope to see should guide the final itinerary.
Uganda and Rwanda invite a different kind of journey. Their maps can help you begin exploring where a gorilla trekking experience might fit alongside a wider East African safari.
Discover Southern Africa
Southern Africa offers many ways to travel. You might be drawn to Botswana’s waterways, Namibia’s desert scenery, South Africa’s varied landscapes or the spectacle of Victoria Falls.
Browse the maps for Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe to get a feel for each destination. If several places catch your interest, a safari specialist can help you decide which combination makes sense for your available time.
Turn inspiration into an itinerary
A map helps you discover possibilities; a well-planned itinerary makes the journey work. The right route depends on when you travel, how many days you have, your preferred pace and what matters most to you. You may want extended time with wildlife, a private guide, a family-friendly safari or a few relaxing days at the end.
