What does Africa mean to you? Do you long to go on safari; to stay in luxury tented camps and spot sleepy lions, gangly giraffes and playful baby elephants? How about a beach holiday in a chilled-out hotel with blissful spa treatments and fantastic diving? Or maybe you'd like to discover Cape Town, the Garden Route and South Africa's winelands.
The Republic of Botswana is a landlocked country constituted by a vast plateau that provides a natural habitat for a huge variety of African wildlife. This scenic wonderland draws thousands of tourists from around the world throughout the year. Most visitors arrive under the auspices of expensive safari-package operators.
Kenya has held a powerful attraction for visitors ever since early explorers and intrepid settlers brought back tales of endless plains filled with antelope, man-eating lions, mountain peaks and perfect beaches.
The country is certainly the premier African safari destination, offering unparalleled wild game experiences in its iconic parks: the Masai Mara with its vast rolling grassland, Amboseli's regal elephant herds, and the dramatic vistas of the Great Rift Valley.Peak safari time is the mid-year wildebeest migration - an unforgettable sight as millions of animals make an epic journey across the land seeking fresh pastures.

Good local family run travel agent in the centre of Shrewsbury which gives excellent service. Wherever you want to travel doesn't matter how remote they will be able to help. They put together some great trips, a lot advertised in the shop window. They are experts at travel and have won many awards.

We were very impressed with the service from peakes Travel. We initially dealt with Emily,who couldn’t have been more helpful & informative. Others were equally as helpful if Emily was busy. We had a great break in New York. A big thank you to all the staff, I would certainly highly recommend your firm.
Many thanks

Brilliant service, Emily has helped us on a couple of trips with great advice, suggestions and fantastic levels of service. It’s so good to have this level of personal contact at the same price you pay for an impersonal service via the internet. We thoroughly recommend Peakes Travel and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again

We approached Peakes to sort out a family holiday in Kenya to include a safari break and a coastal break. They did not disappoint. I usually arrange all our holidays on the internet but I know no matter how manner days/weeks I'd spent online I would not have achieved the same level of 5 star service we received on our trip. There was somebody to meet us at every step whether it be at the several dirt air strips we went to or a 5 star hotel. We did not have to query anything. I would not hesitate in recommending their services to friends and family.
