Download the brochureGo “on safari” to the premier safari destinations of Kenya and Tanzania, enjoying quintessential wildlife viewing and top-rated lodges and meeting gracious local people. Your small group limited to 18 guests encounters many and varied highlights, beginning with a tour of Nairobi, Kenya’s cosmopolitan capital. 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. Visit Kenya’s Masai Mara, the proud Maasai people’s homeland; Amboseli National Park, known for its large elephant population; and Serengeti National Park, one of the earth’s last great wildlife refuges. Adjoining Serengeti National Park is the Ngorongoro Conservation Area which encompasses Ngorongoro Crater – where Africa’s “Big Five” reside – and Olduvai Gorge, site of discoveries that revolutionized evolutionary anthropology. Your last stop is peaceful Lake Manyara, a park noted for its abundant bird life, including dazzling pink flamingoes.
