Cruising Toward the Wild: A Luxurious Path to Your African Safari

When you visualize an African safari, you probably imagine wide-open plains, lions silhouetted at sunset, and the rhythmic pulse of the wild. 

But what if the journey to that dream could be just as unforgettable as the destination itself?

Many travelers who want to realize this dream face long-haul flights, layovers, and airport stress. Now imagine stepping aboard a luxurious cruise ship and letting the rhythm of the ocean guide you to Africa. 

With Norwegian Cruise Line’s thoughtfully curated itineraries, you can discover the wonders of the continent in a way that’s as enriching as it is effortless.

It’s the kind of journey that blends relaxation, discovery, and wonder—without ever needing to repack your suitcase.
