<div class="MsoNormal">
Due to various historical legacies, the northern part of
Africa is laced with Arabic, French and Spanish influences. This is evidenced
in the architecture, food and culture. In Morocco, you can experience beautiful
beaches, tasty foods and curries as well as beautifully built mosques. Not to
mention, the capital city, with its ancient walls around the city has been
named a UNESCO World Heritage site.</div>

<b>East Africa – Kenya, Tanzania</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Kenya lies on the east side of Africa and is one of the
world’s great travel destinations. There is a diversity of attractions from
tropical beaches and equatorial forests to snow capped mountains. The breath
taking beauty is a great place for hiking, going on a safari or just enjoying
the culture and food. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Right net door is Tanzania, home to Mt Kilimanjaro and
whether you are there on a hiking expedition or just enjoying the surrounding
nature and wildlife, the scenery is incredible. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>West Africa</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
West Africa is the most heavily populated area on the
continent. Travelling to this area is not easy and travelling once there can
also be challenging. This is what makes this trip so rewarding. Some of the
most incredible beaches in the world can be found here. They are also largely
underdeveloped meaning you get the opportunity to experience them the way
nature intended. Many of these can be fond in <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/cape-verde">Cape Verde </a>islands. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Southern Africa </b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
If it’s wildlife you are looking for then a safari in
southern Africa is a great place to start. Here you set out to find the big 5
African animals in their natural habitat in Botswana and South Africa. You can
choose self drives or find an experienced tour guide to help you. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
South Africa is also home to many diverse ethnic groups,
making an experience there very rewarding. At the tip of Africa in the city of
Cape Town you will find incredible views and unique fauna. Additionally, you
can also drive along the Namibian cost where the incredible beaches as well as
desert dunes are a sight to see.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Africa is steeped in history dating back to prehistoric man.
It is also affected by the history of colonial times and the road many
countries are coming back from. The continent has incredible natural resources
and wildlife. A holiday in Africa is an experience everyone should have. You
will gain knowledge, insights and find yourself in extraordinary places. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
The East African nations is one of Africa’s
rising stars. Touted both the gateway and capital of East and Central Africa, Kenya
has a lot of activities for the adventurous tourist. With a wide variety of
terrain and climate zones, Kenya offers you a lot in a small space. Be it the
desert areas of the north, the famed game reserves of the south, the snowy
peaks of Mt Kenya on the equator, or the sandy beaches of Mombasa, you always
have something new and exciting to see. Here are three places that will take
your breath away.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><b>Lamu</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">While most tourists frequent the popular
city of Mombasa, it is Lamu where all the authenticity is. Mombasa’s appeal is
lost in the rapid modernization and large crowds that are not characteristic of
Lamu. Lamu still has that ancient Swahili feel: luxuriously slow, tastefully
sunny, and enjoyably pristine. The beaches are wide and clean, the curious are
creatively unique, and the overall experience breath taking. Today, Lamu has
very many exclusive luxury accomodations for the lavish tourist: from tented
camps in nearby mangrove forests, five-star beach hotels, private villas, to
tree houses. The locals are very friendly, and will serve you a feast of
Swahili delicacies: a blend of Arabic spice with local Bantu creativity. After
you have enjoyed the sun, sand, vibrant night life, and sightseeing<a href="" name="_GoBack"></a> of the ancient sights, head a little inland for wildlife.
It is surprising how close by all the attractions are!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><b>Maasai Mara</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Barely 6 hours away lies one of the world’s
finest National Parks: the Maasai Mara. Home to a tasteful selection of
wildlife, flora, and fauna, this large park offers unparalleled sights and
sounds. Most notably, the world’s 8<sup>th</sup> wonder happens here every
year. Get a front row view of the magnificent Wildebeest Migration as you
follow along in an air condition safari car. For even more thrill, stay one of
the many tented camps, listening to the sounds of lions, elephants, and the
laughing hyenas all through the night. It is perfectly safe! If you prefer,
book yourself in at one of the hotels beside a watering hole, and witness the
magic every morning and evening as wildlife come to feed.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><b>Aberdare National Park</b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">It is surprising that there is a snow
mountain lying right on the equator. Mt. Kenya is a truly unique feature, home
to a host of rare animals, as well as home to the mythical god of the local
Kikuyu tribe. The stoic mountain hosts the Aberdare ranges, where the Aberdare
National Park lies.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Indeed, the beauty of this park has
attracted royalty. Queen Elizabeth was on tour here, just before the tragic
announcement of her father’s passing. More recently, Prince William and Princess
Kate holidayed in the area just before the famed proposal. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">It is easy to see why this place is so
attractive to royalty. The beautiful, jungle air, lively wildlife scene, along
with regal accommodation make this an irresistible holiday destination. Get
front row seats to water holes, explore Elephant Hill on foot, and journey
through a maze of prime safari routes. Overlook stunning mountain sunsets while
enjoying Africa’s most elegant hospitality. Staying at the Treetops Hotel
observing a herd of elephants, where Her Majesty once stayed, it is easy to
fall in love with the beauty of Central Kenya. </span></div>

<br />
One problem that often faces them is where to stay. Accommodation for groups of 2 to 6 are all over the place, but finding somewhere that houses 10 or more can be a challenge, particularly finding somewhere that suits your tastes. There's the obvious choice of hotels and staying in multiple rooms, but this foregoes the whole idea of going away as a group, being able to sit together through the evening and enjoy each other's company.<br />
<br />
The solution to this is finding group accommodation which can house more than 20 people, and fortunately these sorts of places are popping up like wildfire through the UK. Whether they are town houses in major cities or beautiful <a href="http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=5&cad=rja&ved=0CFcQFjAE&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.telegraph.co.uk%2Fproperty%2Fpropertypicturegalleries%2F5917752%2FFive-of-the-best-barn-conversions.html&ei=ORltUf6iC8-WhQe5-4HgDA&usg=AFQjCNEmE3Lpb6b8I2kHFukMPYjpYyz2Gg&sig2=km-YlnhsLCUM1wp82oC7IQ">converted barns</a> in rural areas, these properties really do take your breath away, and are the perfect place for a party with your close friends and family.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.house-parties.co.uk/">House Parties</a> is one website which lists group accommodation options, and it includes some incredible properties through the UK. With places that can host up to 24 people, you really can get the whole family down and have a great weekend. They come with all the luxury trimmings too, from swimming pools and hot tubs to Sky TV and built in bars.<br />
<br />
So if you're planning on travelling in the UK any time soon and want to take family and friends along for the ride, check out some of these places as they will knock your socks off.<br />

It is a beautiful spot which is hidden away and perfect for escaping the hustle and bustle of life in India's major cities.<br />
<br />
It is often referred to as the queen of the hill stations, and with good reason. Offering panoramic views across Maharashtra's plains and peaks, it has an ambiance all of its own and mind blowing landscapes to match.<br />
<br />
Despite it being hidden in the hills there are plenty of <a href="http://www.cleartrip.com/hotels/india/mahabaleshwar">hotels in Mahabaleshwar</a> to choose from at various budget levels, so you can relax in comfort when returning from a day hiking and soaking up the breathtaking surroundings.<br />
