Go “on safari” to the premier safari destinations of Kenya and Tanzania, enjoying unparalleled game viewing and top-rated lodges and meeting gracious local people. Beginning in cosmopolitan Nairobi, your small group encounters many and varied highlights. Travel from grassland plains to Mt. Kilimanjaro’s foothills, from the world’s largest volcanic crater to the edge of the Rift Valley, enjoying up-close encounters with exotic animals. First is Amboseli National Park, known for its large elephant population, followed by peaceful Lake Manyara National Park, offering the essence of Tanzania’s safari experience with its incredibly varied ecosystem. Stay in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, home to spectacular Ngorongoro Crater, with a unique chance to see Africa’s “Big Five.” See Olduvai Gorge, site of Mary Leakey’s revolutionary discovery. Continue on to the storied Serengeti, the Maasai’s “endless plain” considered Africa’s finest park. The adventure concludes with a three-night stay in Maasai Mara, Kenya’s premier game reserve.
