Africa, home to an amazing 54 nations, absolutely deserves a place on every traveller's bucket list. Think towering dunes, rolling savannah, a riveting past, and a tapestry of cultures so vibrant you’ll feel energised at every turn. Then there’s the wildlife. Elephants, leopards, lions… you name it, Africa proudly boasts it. Zebras by the herd. Giraffes galore. And that’s only the beginning. From the legendary Big Five to the cheeky Little Five, plus more birds, bushveld, and curious critters than you ever imagined, Africa teems with life that’ll leave you awe-struck.
You won’t leave Africa with a half-hearted shrug. You’ll take home a brand-new appreciation for the continent that sets the benchmark for wow.

For South Africa, the dry winter months from May to October are ideal for wildlife safaris. For East Africa, the dry seasons from June to October and December to March are perfect to witness the Great Migration. North Africa is best visited from October to April.
Africa spans several time zones, but most countries are around 10 to 12 hours behind New Zealand Standard Time (NZST, GMT +12).
South Africa is a country that dazzles with diversity — from wild savannahs to arty, edgy cityscapes to the turquoise coastline and white sands of your dreams. Watch elephants, giraffes and rhinos roam at sunrise in Kruger National Park, feel the sea breeze on your face at Cape Point, or hike Table Mountain for panoramic views that will render you utterly speechless.
"I have worked with Maxine for a number of years, and she has consistently been helpful in providing a range of flight options. She always takes the time to find the best deals to suit our needs and makes the booking process straightforward and stress-free. I would highly recommend Maxine to friends and family and appreciate her excellent service and attention to detail."
Jason and Niki"Gave options, was quick and efficient."
Edward"She was fast in putting a quote together - same day we spoke about it. She had 3 strong options for me all within budget and to the brief I had explained. Everything was confirmed within the week for a very short turnaround holiday in a place with limited accomodation due to how last minute the trip was. I definitely recommend working with Jaz, this is the second holiday she has booked for us and won't be the last!"
