Africa by Private Jet
The cradle of humankind, Africa is a land of mystique that piques the imagination. It has an incredibly varied landscape, like the dense rainforest cover of the Congo Basin, the rugged peaks of the Ethiopian Highlands, the grassy tropical plains of the savanna, the verdant jungles of the Great Lakes, and the barren desert of the Sahara. Home to some of the world’s most magnificent natural features, it also has an abundance of wildlife. It is bounded by the Indian Ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Mediterranean Sea, and the Red Sea, and divided into almost equal halves by the Equator. The second largest and second most populous continent in the world with 54 countries you can explore by chartering a private jet, Africa is as rich in traditions, history and natural resources as it is ethnically diverse and expansive.
