Many people take gap years to get some much-needed R&R, but a gap year is also the perfect time to visit destinations you might not otherwise get to see.
Africa Odyssey, which organizes safaris and honeymoons throughout Africa, has put together a guide on how to see the best of the continent within a year.
The infographic includes must-see attractions within each country, how many days to spend in each, as well as a recommended route that maps which countries to see in what order.
Countries deemed unsafe or without many attractions were excluded, but the itinerary is full of adventures, like seeing the Great Migration in Tanzania and taking a cruise on the Nile River in Egypt.
