Just how big is Southern Africa compared to Europe?

One of the biggest challenges we have is explaining how far things are in Africa. Doing a classic Cape Town to Victoria Falls tour is an amazing experience but definitely not for the faint hearted. It is an adventure that covers vast distances but at the same time takes you to places that are so remote and not easily travelled too independently.  If you up for the challenge you will have an amazing experience that will leave you inspired to come back again.

Here is a great example of the distances covered in relation to Europe :)
