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.

I had a very good experience booking the hike through Explore-Share. Communication with the team was prompt and clear and the booking process was seamless. The trip itself was also just perfect. Uroš was a fantastic guide, highly skilled and talented. The hike felt safe at all times, even on more exposed routes, thanks to him. He was always up to date on the weather forecast and planned the days around it, checked the conditions on the route ahead of me, if needed, discussed and adapted the routes to my level and always made sure I was safe and comfortable. I highly recommend him, as well as Explore-Share.

Explore Share is a really usefull website that has a great overview of reviewed guides for a (in our case) hiking/climbing trip. During the booking I got assigned an assistent for Explore Share that helped solve questions that I might have. Great customer service, and I will come back again.

Guide was very experienced and very patient with us. We learned a lot and he tried to fit in all the knowledge he could in one day, super awesome. A little tough going back and forth to get the trip set up hard to tell if the site is sketchy until you see reviews but all worked out. Ended up with an awesome day with an awesome guide. Overall pretty satisfied and thankful!

It's the 2nd time we have been booking with Explore-Share. The booking was super easy and both Explore-Share and the guide were fast in their responses. We did rafting as a family with 3 kids for the first time in Slovenia. The guide (José) was super nice. He was doing everything he could to make everyone at ease with rafting (he gave clear explanations), have a great team spirit (we were joined by 2 other girls) and have a good time. We had lots of fun and the nature there is so beautiful. Thank you Explore-share and Soca splash for the great afternoon! I would recommend this activity to anyone without a doubt. My kids immediately told me they want to do rafting again soon !"
