Paragliding Kilimanjaro

What started as a crazy idea between friends nearly 10 years ago, is finally turning into reality. The first ever legal paragliding flights from Uhuru Peak, Kilimanjaro, the roof of Africa, are just around the corner. The expedition has also been put together to commemorate the 50 year 'Uhuru' Celebrations in Tanzania. (Uhuru means freedom). They are hiking to the summit and planning to fly off (weather permitting) on the 16 September 2011. Follow this expedition on the website: www.livetrack24.com - Event name 2011 Paraglide Kilimanjaro - where up to the minute live tracking will be provided, from the 11 - 18 September.

South Africa


Glorious beaches, gracious winelands, cosmopolitan cities, sanctuaries teeming with game. South Africa offers the visitor an endless range of excellent options.


Truly cosmopolitan, South Africans are often described as 'the rainbow nation'. South Africa is a vast country (about five times larger than the United Kingdom) which offers a great variety of holiday options and endless things to see and do.


Among the most popular excursions are visits to the country's many superb national parks and game reserves, including the world-renowned Kruger National Park. Cape Town with its familiar landmark, Table Mountain, remains a favourite destination. The picturesque wine estates and quality wines produced there attract great interest. With year round sun shine and great climate there is never a bad time to visit South Africa.

Any visitor to Johannesburg should include a visit to Soweto while to the north west of the 'city of gold' lies Pilanesberg National Park and Sun City.
Magnificent mountain scenery, including the famed Drakensberg and the awe-inspring Blyde River Canyon, competes with the semi-desert of the Karoo and ancient forests of Tsitsikamma and Knysna for visitors' attention.
