FAQ
Frequently asked questions - Africa tours
What should I do in Africa?

Africa is home to an array of unique experiences, from exploring the pyramids of Egypt to safaris in East and South Africa. Visit the bustling souks of Morocco, witness the majestic Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, or track gorillas in Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Immerse yourself in Africa’s vibrant cultures, history, and wildlife, whether you're climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, visiting the world-famous Kruger National Park, or relaxing on Zanzibar’s beautiful beaches.

When is the best time to visit Africa?

Egypt

Winter (December to February) offers cooler temperatures for sightseeing.


Kenya and Uganda

The dry season (June to October) is perfect for safaris, while the wet season (March to May) brings lush landscapes and fewer tourists.


South Africa

For safaris, the dry season (May to October) is ideal, but coastal regions can be visited year-round.


Morocco

Spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) provide comfortable temperatures for exploring.


Victoria Falls

The falls are most dramatic during the rainy season (February to April), though they are still impressive year-round.

What is the weather like in Africa?

Egypt

Hot and dry, especially in summer (June to August), with cooler winters.


Kenya and Uganda

Tropical climates, with warmer weather and occasional rains from March to May.


South Africa 

Varies by region—summer (December to February) is warm, while winter (June to August) is cooler in the southern parts.


Morocco

Hot summers (June to August) in the desert, with cooler spring and autumn weather perfect for sightseeing.


Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe 

Warm year-round, with the rainy season (November to March) offering a more dramatic waterfall.

Are safaris included in Africa tours?

Many of our African tours include safaris in destinations like South Africa's Kruger National Park. Specific safari options are detailed on each deal page.

What animals can I expect to see on safari?

Safaris in Africa offers a chance to see an incredible variety of wildlife in their natural habitats. Common sightings include the "Big Five" – lions, leopards, elephants, rhinoceros, and buffalos. You may also encounter cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, hippos, crocodiles, and hyenas. Antelope species like impalas and springboks are abundant, and bird enthusiasts will delight in colourful species like flamingos, ostriches, and eagles. In forested areas, you might spot primates such as gorillas and chimpanzees.

Can I visit the pyramids in Egypt on Africa tours?

Yes, Egypt tours often include visits to iconic sites such as the Great Pyramid of Giza, the Sphinx, and the temples of Luxor. Additional excursions may also be available, such as a Nile River cruise.

What clothes should I pack for Africa tours?

Pack light, breathable clothing for warm climates and include layers for cooler mornings and evenings, especially in desert regions or on safari. Don’t forget a hat, sunglasses, comfortable walking shoes and swimwear for coastal areas.

Do TripADeal holiday tours to Africa include flights?

Yes, TripADeal's African packages include return flights from select Australian and New Zealand cities. Check each deal page or contact the TripADeal team for more details.

Is there a lot of time spent in transit?

Africa is vast, and some tours involve long travel times between destinations. However, efficient transport options like buses, flights and local tours help ensure a comfortable journey. Rest stops for meals and sightseeing are often included. Check each deal page for specifics.

What can I expect from hotels in Africa?

Hotels vary by destination. Expect well-maintained accommodations in major cities, ranging from simple lodgings to more luxurious options in safari camps. In more remote areas, hotels may be more basic but are chosen for their comfort and local authenticity.

Do I need a visa to visit Africa?

Visa requirements depend on the country. For Australian travellers, countries like South Africa and Morocco may offer visa-free stays for short visits, while others, such as Egypt, require a visa. It’s best to check Smartraveller for up-to-date visa information.

What currency is used in Africa?

Currencies vary by country: Egyptian Pound in Egypt, Kenyan Shilling in Kenya, South African Rand in South Africa, Moroccan Dirham in Morocco, and Zimbabwean Dollar in Zimbabwe. ATMs and currency exchange facilities are widely available in major cities.

What forms of payment are accepted?

Cash is widely accepted in Africa and credit cards are commonly used in larger cities and hotels. We recommend carrying both cash and a card, with approximately AUD$100 in local currency for daily expenses.

Is tipping customary in Africa?

Tipping is appreciated in many African countries. It’s customary to tip your guides, drivers, and hotel staff. Tip amounts may vary by country and service, so refer to the details on each deal page for guidance.

Should I get a travel SIM for Africa?

A travel SIM card or international roaming is recommended for connectivity in most African countries. Wi-Fi is available in hotels, but coverage may be limited in more remote areas.

What power plug is needed in Africa?

Power plugs vary across Africa, but common types include British-style plugs (Type G) in South Africa and Morocco and European-style plugs (Type C or E) in Egypt. A universal travel adaptor is highly recommended.
