Meet Africa - at 30 million square kilometers - the worlds second largest continent is much more than just the cradle of mankind- its the birthplace of humanity. Feel the spirit of traditions, songs and dances maintained for hundreds of generations. As you travel across the continent you begin to understand the vitality of the African people expressed in their passion for life, music, color and light. You may start to appreciate their vigor and capacity from their historic struggle for freedom. Somewhere between a camel and a skyscraper; a rock and a reservoir you will begin to see the truth about this land of diversity.
But thats not all - challenge one of earth's largest desert, longest rivers or climb a mountain on the shoulder of giants to witness the last of Africa's glaciers. See the pride of the Serengeti as they engage in a chase, follow in the wake of the African Elephant and count penguins in South Africa. Take a lesson in history as you admire the pyramids of Giza,the ruins of Carthage and the relics of other ancient civilizations- and finally find out how to get to Timbuktu.
