Discover Africa by Sea

Table Mountain rising over Cape Town, sunset sails on the Nile and safari adventures within reach of the coast. An Africa cruise pairs vibrant port cities with some of the world’s most remarkable wildlife and landscapes.

Discover Africa

Africa cruises cover a vast and varied coastline. In southern Africa, voyages call at Cape Town, Durban and nearby islands, with time to add a safari before or after your sailing. Nile River cruises glide past ancient temples between Luxor and Aswan, while Zambezi region journeys combine river time with Victoria Falls. Longer ocean voyages link North and West Africa, the Indian Ocean islands and the Atlantic coast, often as part of extended or repositioning itineraries.
