They are visiting South Africa, Swaziland and Kenya to promote The Duke of Edinburgh's Award International Association, which encourages young people to develop leadership skills.
Today, after presenting scheme Gold Awards to schoolchildren, the couple move to the Kwandwe private game reserve. Staying in a pounds 400-a-night private lodge, they will be taken on a half-hour game drive where they will see wild elephants and lions before attending a charity dinner.
After the presentation at St Andrew's College today, the couple are due to meet South Africa's President Nelson Mandela.
Before flying back to Britain next Saturday, they will visit Soweto and fly to Nairobi to visit two Duke of Edinburgh Award special project centres helping schoolchildren in the Kenyan capital.
