The adventure
Whether you travel in style or by the seat of your pants, the sprawling grasslands of Kenya and Tanzania are a sight to behold. This trip stresses the former while capturing the spirit of the latter, transferring you swiftly between national parks and cushy lodges while still giving you the chance to get out and truly feel the majestic lands you’re travelling across. In a small safari 4x4 with two expert local guides, you’ll descend into the Great Rift Valley, spot elephants in the distance in Amboseli National Park, track the Big Five across the Serengeti and Masai Mara plains and more. Your photos have never looked this good.
Arrive at any time. Arrival transfer included.
Drive along the Great Rift Valley with stunning views from lookout points. Enjoy your first wildlife safari drive in Aberdare National Park this afternoon.
Morning wildlife safari drive then travel to Lake Naivasha and take an afternoon boat ride to view hippos and birds who make the lake their home. Opt to enjoy a nature walk in the surrounding forest.
After breakfast, depart for the world famous Masai Mara Game Reserve. With its vast open plains and distinctive flat-topped acacia trees, no trip to Kenya would be complete without a visit here. In the afternoon, settle into our safari lodge, our base for our time here. Then, set off on a wildlife safari drive into the Mara in search of the 'Big Five' - lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant and rhino.
Depart on another exciting wildlife safari drive in the Masai Mara Game Reserve and learn more about the wildlife and ecology of this famed area from our expert guide. During downtime, relax at the lodge, conveniently located inside the reserve. Opt to take an early morning balloon safari or visit a Masai village.
Cross the border into Tanzania. Enjoy a free evening.
Enjoy a boat ride on Lake Victoria for bird watching and stunning views before travelling to the world famous Serengeti, one of Africa's premier national parks. Experience the vastness of this territory and marvel at the multitude of animal and bird life while bumping through the savanna accented with acacia trees.
Enjoy daily wildlife safari drives and wildlife viewing with time to relax at our lodge conveniently located inside the park.
After an early breakfast, set off toward Ngorongoro Conservation Area for more wildlife viewing and our next lodge.
Wake early and decend into the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Enjoy a full morning wildlife safari drive to spot as many different species of wildlife as possible, then eat a picnic lunch and continue to a Masai village to learn about local people and the G Adventures-supported Clean Cookstove project. Meet the local female engineers who have installed clean cookstoves throughout these communities before continuing to Arusha for the evening.
Cross the border back into Kenya and opt for a final dinner with the group.
Depart at any time.
