For the first time ever more than 50 percent of the world live in cites and it is predicted that this number is fast approaching 75 percent. I find that in a world such a this it is easy to loose hold of a grip with basics of life, for example nature and real world around us and behind the city life.

We are all familiar with the vast Sahara plains and roaming wildebeest as far as BBC documentaries go, however it is rare for us to think it could be a reality in our own lives. It is common for us to land up in a grossly populated holiday destination talking to our next door neighbour we randomly bumped into and feel our holiday has been ruined by tourists. In truth these destinations provide us with little relaxation and we find ourselves returning home feeling as if we need another hoilday.

The reality is that an African Safari isn’t unattainable and can bring us inspiring first hand enlightenment into the circle of life.

A good African safari often there is a knowledgeable and exciting park ranger. Do not be alarmed by the seemingly hard balls of steel that they appear to possess because with this bravado also comes a great understanding of the wild and respect for nature.

The park ranger is vital in order to enter into the African dimension as they will take you directly to the heart of where things are going on, it is possible they can lead you straight into a hunt. This kind of experience is priceless and will create memmories you will have with you forever. In a vehicle thatbasicallyhas no limitations on your direct involvement in the scene due to its lack of sides and roof you will be right in the action and taking part in the strategies of the ‘circle of life’.

If you are thinking that you are one of those people that never get to see sharks when you go diving, always have the rain on a holiday and that you probably won’t get anopportunityto be in a Lion hunt if you go on safari. Then I would say that whether it be Lions or elephants, giraffes orbuffaloes, you willdefinitelysee and experience something beautiful as nature intended it to be. To see the pure working system of the circle of life anAfricansafari cannot be beaten, and provides way better odds of being in a lion hunt when with a ranger than seeing a shark when with a diving instructor.
