Main Info
This safari takes you through the Kenya Classic tour in Kenya and
the Simba Safari tour in Tanzania.
Tanzania offers a unique wildlife experience across famous game parks with a stunning backdrop of one of Africa’s most magnificent sights, Mount Kilimanjaro. To the north lies the breath-taking Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO Conservation Area and site of the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera. Teeming with wildlife, clients have the opportunity to get incredibly close to the natural ecosystem. Tanzania’s biggest annual event begins in Serengeti National Park where the annual migration of more than a million wildebeest surging across the plains is one of the most dramatic displays of nature one can witness today. The territorial conquest in search of sustenance drives the animals to migrate across the plains of Serengeti, braving crocodile-infested waters and Africa’s ferocious predators in a bid for survival.
Enriched with some of the world’s most beautiful wilderness areas, Kenya is regarded as the foundation of any safari experience and the first choice for many looking to explore Africa. From the grand parks of Tsavo East and Tsavo West to the more intimate Samburu Game Reserve and dozens in between, Kenya’s parks and reserves are home to hundreds of mammal and bird species. Be it the thrill of the migration as it crosses into Masai Mara or the breath-taking views of Mt. Kilimanjaro’s snowy peak, no day on safari is the same and the panorama of wildlife that unfolds provides a unique adventure. Then, to complete the perfect holiday, the sparkling waters of the Indian Ocean welcome you to Kenya’s coast.
