East Africa cruises are likely to appeal to holidaymakers with an interest in nature and wild animals, thanks to its stunning scenery and high concentration of elephants, lions, rhinos and other such safari creatures.
Countries that holidaymakers are likely to see while cruising the coast of Eastern Africa include Kenya, Tanzania, Mozambique, Madagascar, Mauritius, Seychelles and Tanzania.
Home to such natural wonders as Lake Victoria - the second largest freshwater lake in the world – and the second deepest lake in the world, Lake Tanganyika, East Africa cruises are often packed full of opportunities to explore the local landmarks.
Two landmarks unlikely to be missed by those on Eastern African cruises are Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Kenya.
From trekking in these magnificent mountains to spotting water buffalo in Mombassa, there are a wide selection of onshore excursions to cater to the most diverse tastes.
Travellers who prefer spotting shopping bargains to leopards can take a trip to an Eastern African bazaar and haggle over authentic souvenirs.
Meanwhile, East African cruises offer travellers plenty of opportunity to soak up the rays, with beautiful beaches in Kenya and Tanzania waiting to be explored.
Mauritius is a small island nation off the east coast of Madagascar and was a favourite destination of the author Mark Twain who claimed that heaven was based on the island.
Lush greenery, white sandy beaches and picturesque mountain peaks combine to make Mauritius a highlight on an East Africa cruise.
