Africa & the Indian Ocean Islands


Discover distant destinations galore via the comfort of Boudicca on this epic three-week adventure. You’ll be taken on an unforgettable journey all the way from the captivating city of Cape Town to history-packed Senegal and Cape Verde. En route, enjoy rare calls into the beautifully isolated islands of St Helena and Ascension, while two days in Namibia are the chance to see fascinating wildlife and the world’s oldest desert, the Namib.


Ascension Island Cape Town


Boudicca will be awaiting your arrival in Cape Town, where you’ll have an evening and a full day to explore. From the stunning scenery at Cape Point and the penguins at Boulders Beach, to iconic Table Mountain – there’s plenty to see here. The chance to visit Robben Island to learn of Nelson Mandela’s inspirational life is also recommended.


In contrast to this bustling capital city, the town of Lüderitz appears almost lost in time, nestled between the dusty Namib wilderness and the South Atlantic coast. On the outskirts lies the ghost town of Kolmanskop, an abandoned village that makes for a fascinating visit. Shortly after you’ll arrive in Walvis Bay, a haven for wildlife – the natural lagoon is often dotted with flush pink flamingos. It’s also the gateway to the world’s oldest desert, the Namib: a vast, unforgiving landscape, home to colossal sand dunes and fascinating endemic species.


A call into Jamestown on the volcanic island of St Helena follows. History enthusiasts will enjoy hearing of the island’s links with Napoleon – the French emperor was exiled here until his death. Then it is on


towards Georgetown on remote Ascension Island. A visit here is the chance to uncover a host of natural wonders, from the verdant Green Mountain to turtles nesting on the quiet beaches.


The delights of Senegal and its exuberant capital, Dakar, await you next. Venture to UNESCO-listed Gorée and unearth the island’s haunting slave-trade past; or visit a curiosity of nature – Lake Retba – aptly-named ‘the Pink Lake’ due to its unusual colour, created by micro-organisms in the water.


On to Cape Verde, home to diverse landscapes, colonial monuments and thriving esplanades. First up is the bustling capital, Praia, where you can unearth artefacts at the Archaeology Museum; browse market stalls; or visit the town of Cidade Velha – once a major slave-trading post. Then in Mindelo, visit the Community Art Museum which exhibits the island’s creative side and head to Camara Square to admire the historic church and colourful vegetable market.


After all the exploring, unwind with two days at sea before your holiday concludes in Tenerife.
