Well, it wouldn't be February without the obligatory mention of Valentine's Day, now, would it?
Valentine’s Day. A celebration of love, overpriced set menus, and the dubious decision to give stuffed animals to fully grown adults.

From the vast savannahs of the Serengeti to the snow-capped summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, this East African gem promises an adventure of a lifetime.
Climbing Africa’s tallest peak is a dream for many. Rising to 5,895 metres, the ‘Roof of Africa’ offers not only panoramic views of the vast plains below but also an unparalleled sense of triumph. With a range of routes tailored to various fitness levels and trekking preferences, the ascent is more accessible than many other famous peaks.
But there is more to Tanzania than Kilimanjaro.
Witness the annual Great Migration in the Serengeti, a spectacle of millions of wildebeest and zebras crossing the plains. Marvel at the UNESCO-listed Ngorongoro Crater, a natural amphitheatre teeming with wildlife, including the Big Five.
