According to People, a royal source said the couple is excited about arriving in Africa. The source said,

The tour is a demonstration of the partnership between the UK and Africa, and the Royals would visit four countries in ten days. The tour which begins on September 23rd is scheduled to end on October 2nd.

It will start with Markle and Prince Harry visiting sites, and the charities they support in South Africa, after which, the dad-of-one would proceed alone to Botswana, Angola, and Malawi.

In South Africa, the couple would visit a workshop that educates children on their rights, and safety, as well as the District Museum that tells the story of a displaced community during apartheid, and the Homecoming Center, where they'll take part in community cooking.

Other activities of the tour include highlighting wildlife conservation efforts in Botswana and raising awareness about the dangers of landmines in Angola.

The latter is an inherited passion project from Princess Diana, and Prince Harry is determined to keep up with his mother's legacy until he eradicates all landmine fields in Angola.

On September 1st, the Duke in a statement to his joint Instagram account with Markle shared a photo collage highlighting the beauty of Africa. He stated he could not wait to meet everyone, and he gets to do that today, with his wife, and son.
