With Easter fast approaching, the travel bug is biting again, and 2026 is serving up some truly irresistible destinations. 

Here are six places that should be on your radar.

Ndutu, Tanzania — Calving Season Magic

If there’s one place where nature steals the show during Easter, it’s Ndutu. Located between the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the Serengeti, April is the best time to witness the Great Migration’s calving season. Think thousands of newborn wildebeest wobbling into the world, zebra herds grazing under acacias, and predators watching the drama unfold. It’s raw, spectacular and uniquely Tanzanian.

Kenya — Lake Nakuru & Masai Mara

Just across the border, Easter in Kenya means a blend of wildlife and landscapes. Lake Nakuru dazzles with its flamingos and rhino sightings, while the Masai Mara offers game drives, Maasai culture, and those sweeping savannah views that define East African safaris. You can easily combine the two for a well-rounded holiday.

Rwanda — Akagera National Park

For something different, Akagera offers Rwanda’s understated safari secret. With lakes, papyrus wetlands and savannahs, you’ll spot elephants, giraffes, buffalo and an impressive variety of birds. It’s peaceful, well-managed and ideal for travellers who love nature minus the crowds.

Abu Dhabi — Yas Island Fun

If safaris aren’t your speed, Yas Island in Abu Dhabi is where thrill-seekers thrive. From Ferrari World and Yas Waterworld to Warner Bros World and its gleaming beaches, the island is tailor-made for families. Add world-class resorts and Arabian hospitality, and Easter becomes a sun-soaked playground.

Delhi to Jaipur — India’s Royal Corridor

Easter is a great time to explore India’s Golden Triangle. Start in Delhi for the grand monuments and markets before heading to Jaipur, known as the "Pink City" for its stunning buildings and vibrant markets....where pastel palaces, spice-scented bazaars, and Rajput history await. It’s energetic, photogenic and endlessly fascinating.

Cape Town — A Coastal Classic

Finally, Cape Town needs no introduction. Table Mountain hikes, Camps Bay sunsets, vineyards in Stellenbosch and penguins in Simon’s Town, it’s a city that packs every travel fantasy into one coastal frame.
