Mount Lycabettus, in Greek: Lykavittos, Λυκαβηττός, sits right in the centre of Athens, rising 277 metres above sea level. Getting yourself up to this altitude gives you an exquisite 360° view over Athens, the Aegean sea and the ships in Piraeus. When the sky is clear, you can see all the way to the mountains in Peloponnese. As well as views, there is also a chic cafe-restaurant, a 19th century Chapel and an amphitheatre.

Hwange National Park presents an exceptional opportunity to extend your African safari experience beyond Zambia. Situated northwest of Zimbabwe, with its eastern part being the closest Livingstone, this vast conservation area, formerly known as Wankie Game Reserve, spans approximately 14,600 square kilometres, making it Zimbabwe's largest protected wilderness. Nearby, the village of Matetsi also delivers superb safari experiences, complementing the park’s own offerings. The park is home to over 100 mammal species and 400 bird varieties, including rare sightings of gemsbok, brown hyenas, African wild dogs, cheetahs, and leopards, alongside spectacular avian species such as the southern ground hornbill and martial eagle Hwange Safaris offers comprehensive tour packages, wildlife viewing expeditions, and accommodation within the park. Note this magnificent reserve lies within Zimbabwe's borders, requiring proper travel documentation for entry to both Zambia and Zimbabwe to facilitate this extraordinary cross-border adventure.
