Description
Boasting incredible scenery as well as some of the best wildlife watching anywhere on earth, a Kenya and Tanzania safari should be at the top of anyone's bucket list!
Over the course of this 11-day trip, we will visit six national parks and reserves, getting the chance to see incredible wildlife and some of East Africa's beautiful scenery.
Making a giant loop south of Nairobi, the Kenyan capital, we will begin with a quick visit to Lake Nakuru, where we will visit a rhino sanctuary that is home to 100 endangered white and black rhinos. We will also head to the shores of the unique lake to see the incredible population of hot pink flamingos.
From Lake Nakuru, we will head to Masai Mara, where we will get the chance to see the famed Big Five – lions, African elephants, Cape buffalos, leopards, and rhinoceros – and (from June to October) may have the chance to witness the famed wildebeest migration, when two million of the bovidae cross the serengeti.
After Masai Mara, we will cross the border into Tanzania and visit the vast Serengeti National Park. Here, we will go on even more game drives to see more of wildlife and enjoy the stunning beauty of the grasslands.
The tour continues on to one of the highlights of the trip: Ngorongoro reserve, the eighth wonder the natural world!
We will descend into the massive crater, which sprawls over 264 square kilometers (102 sq miles) and boasts natural cliff walls that are 600 meters high (2,000 feet). Here, we will explore forests, plains and lakes, getting the chance to see just about every species of animal native to East Africa!
From Ngorongoro, we will continue east across the savannas of Tanzania and then Kenya, visiting Lake Manyara before finishing the trip in Ambroseli National Park and then returning to Nairobi.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
