Africa stirs the soul like nowhere else. From the floodplains of the Okavango to the red dunes of the Kalahari, from ancient rock art to roaming elephants, this continent brims with wild beauty, deep cultural roots, and moments of quiet wonder. Our African blogs share stories from the road — whether it’s paddling through Botswana’s delta in a mokoro, tracing history at Constitution Hill in South Africa, or learning how to cross a border on foot. Expect honest tips, wildlife encounters, and the kind of offbeat, real-world adventures that define Wee Wild Adventures.
Exploring Africa – Wildlife, Wilderness and Adventure
Africa is a continent of extraordinary contrasts, from towering mountains and vast deserts to tropical forests, sweeping savannahs and spectacular coastlines. It’s a place that has provided us with some unforgettable adventures, remarkable wildlife encounters and plenty of stories to tell.
Our African travels have taken us into wild landscapes, up challenging mountains and through fascinating communities, discovering the continent’s incredible natural and cultural diversity along the way. Whether exploring on foot, travelling through remote regions or simply watching wildlife, there’s always something new to discover.
For us, Africa is about much more than ticking off famous destinations. It’s about experiencing wild places, meeting local people, understanding the landscapes and occasionally finding ourselves rather further from civilisation than originally intended!
In the blogs below, we share our African adventures, wildlife encounters, travel experiences and practical tips. Hopefully, they’ll inspire you to explore this extraordinary continent for yourself.
