“Africa is mystic, it is wild, it is a sweltering inferno, it is a photographer’s paradise, an escapist’s Utopia. It is what you will, and it withstands all interpretations. It is the last vestige of a dead world or the cradle of a shiny new one. To a lot of people, as to myself, it is just home.”
West with the Night
“Let eyeseeAfrica plan an unforgettable adventure for you to the world’s greatest wilderness.”

The indri , also called the babakoto,is one of the largest living lemurs, with a head-body length of about 64–72 cm (25–28+1⁄2 in) and a weight of between 6 and 9.5 kg (13 and 21 lb). It has a black and white coat and maintains an upright posture when climbing or clinging. It is monogamous and lives in small family groups, moving through the canopy, and is herbivorous, feeding mainly on leaves but also seeds, fruits, and flowers. The groups are quite vocal, communicating with other groups by singing, roaring and other vocalisations. Besides humans, it is the only mammal found that can use rhythm. Lemurs are endemic to Madagascar and are the most endangered group of mammals. In fact, 98% of lemur species are threatened with extinction, and 31% of species are critically endangered! #lemurs #lemursofinstagram #lemursofmadagascar #travelafrica #traveltomadagascar #cometravelwithustoafrica #africainourblood

Lemurs are the world’s oldest living primates. Lemur ancestors likely landed on the island of Madagascar about 70 million years ago. Today Madagascar is home to over 110 species of lemurs across five families and 14 genera ranging in size from the 25-gram pygmy mouse lemur to the indri.The future for Lemurs is now catastrophic, and scientists estimate that many species of lemurs could become extinct by 2050 if the trend is not reversed quickly.

The Kruger Big Tuskers, such as the Magnificent Seven Elephants, are world famous.
These seven impressive elephant bulls, all with tusks weighing more than 50 kg each, were promoted in 1980 as the Magnificent Seven, based on the 1960 Hollywood film.
When each of these great elephants died their skulls and tusks were retrieved and are now on display in the Elephant Hall at Letaba Rest Camp.
Ever since the Magnificent Seven were first named in the 1970’s, Kruger’s elephants with large tusks have been a source of awe and inspiration around the world. Though all of the original big tuskers have died, a new generation is walking in their footprints.
We encountered Tsotsi ( In the video) last week and although he has still some growing to do, his beautiful tusks shows a lot of potential to get him also one day on the list of the big tuskers of Kruger! #kruger #krugernatiobalpark #bigtuskersofafrica #bigtuskers #bigtuskersofkruger #elephantsofinstagram #elephantsofafrica

I was born in Namibia and spent many of my childhood days on a farm in the Kalahari, close to the Botswana border. I have fond memories of growing up with the San people and learning from them that we humans are just a small part of nature and that we need to co-exist with the other inhabitants of our planet.
“I love Africa because this is home. I was born here and I have lived here all my life. I love Africa because of its people, their determination and will to survive, their creativeness, their love for life, their music and dance and their simple way of living.
I believe everyone should visit Africa at least once in their lifetime as this is where we all originate from. I personally plan every trip and ideally would like to meet every client to share my abiding passion for Africa and her wildlife.

Packing for an African Safari can feel intimidating—you hear about all sorts of luggage restrictions, like that small charter planes only allow luggage under 40 pounds, and it has to be soft-shelled (no frames or rigid structures).

Trips to Africa are, plainly said, journeys of a lifetime. Which is probably why it is the last continent that most travellers choose to visit.
