"In the 19th century, western adventurers reported on Africa's most beautiful natural wonders and exotic locales, which students will appreciate on a spectacular trip through Tanzania, Zimbabwe and Mali. From Tanzania and Mount Kilimanjaro, one of the largest free standing mountains in the world, to Zimbabwe's stunning Victoria Falls, students will learn about the intrepid exploits of European missionaries and explorers to find these natural treasures.
