With many people having their holiday trips abroad cancelled or delayed this year, it may be that next year there is a massive boom. People may have managed to save the money they were going to spend on a holiday this year and instead decided to put together and go all out next year.

A safari holiday is the perfect choice for a luxury holiday that has adventure thrown in too. They are often quite expensive and therefore many people can only afford to go when it is a special occasion or when they have been saving for a while. Although there are cheaper alternatives, it really is the type of holiday that you do not want to skimp on.  

South Africa is by far the best place for a safari holiday, with the perfect climate for seeing the animals and viewing the amazing scenery. On a safari holiday you will often see animals such as the tigers, lions, elephants and gorillas but there are many other animals you may encounter that you had not thought of. The elephant shrews is definitely one to look out for.  With its long trunk like nose and extra-long legs that are disproportionate to the rest of its body, it hops around like a rabbit and can get up to great speed. These speeds can help it escape the many predators it has. On a safari there are also a huge number of bird species that you may of never encountered before. Some of the birds are truly fascinating to watch and really can add something special to your trip.
