Classic Kenya

Kenya has been a long-time top safari destination – and for good reason. The country is full of iconic wildlife and culture, from the vast herds of the Great Migration to the colorfully beaded tribesmen herding livestock and living off the land. The diversity of scenery, wildlife and culture make Kenya a favorite safari destination at any time of year. From the action of the Maasai Mara, to the elephant herds of Amboseli, to the enchanting and clear blue water of the Coast, and the vast wilderness of the North - Kenya will show you the best. 

Between July and October, an itinerary should include a trip to the Maasai Mara to witness the largest mammal migration in the world, as over a million wildebeest move from the adjacent Serengeti National Park in Tanzania to the Maasai Mara National Reserve in Kenya. We can put you in the right places with a front row seat to this natural wonder.

Kenya has endless opportunities to design your perfect adventure. Let us help you narrow down the options.

Epic - Ethiopia

Ethiopia provides the ultimate cultural adventure. Imagine : stirring smells of coffee and authentic cuisine - vibrant colors and patterns of fabrics - bold dancing - profound religious heritage - the beauty of a simple smile and deep eyes. 

Ethiopia has a diverse landscape full of natural wonders and historical significance. Known as the 'cradle of mankind', Ethiopia will show you relics, ruins, and rock-hewn churches that are still in operation. Ethiopia can show you the beauty of impressively large Semien mountains home to ibex and wolves, or the complex geologic history of the volcanic Danakil Depression - one of the most beautiful and most inhospitable places on the earth.

Ethiopia is a hidden gem and will not disappoint.  

Botswana - Safari at its Best

Botswana is blessed by being one of the most spectacular wildlife destinations in the world. Enjoy incredible biodiversity, top luxury, and exclusivity working hand in hand with conservation. The country is full of unique landscape - from the Okavango Delta to the Makgadikgadi Pans, to the Chobe and the Kalahari - there is always more to explore.  

Botswana is also characterized by change - each season offers different ways to experience all the wonders that the country has to offer. During the flood season, take a mokoro boat through the Delta looking for rare birds or the elusive sitatunga. Or if it's wild dog you want so see - Botswana can make it happen. 

Uganda & Rwanda - Bright & Brilliant

The source of the mighty Nile, abounding with birdlife, and a haven for primates, Uganda is a destination that has so much to offer. Brilliance, color, song, and scale, it is the ‘Pearl of Africa”. From Murchison Falls in the north, to the majestic Rwenzori Mountains in the east, to the high hills of Bwindi in the south, and all that’s in between, this is a magnificent place to encounter unrivaled biodiversity and fulfill an appetite for adventure.

Neighboring Rwanda is often seen as a single destination for the gorilla trekking, but when you dig a little deeper you see that this country tells an amazing human story since the genocide. Rwanda has truly brought itself up from the ashes, with the hip, urban vitality of Kigali and some incredible conservation initiatives revitalizing Akagera Park.

Namibia - other worldy

Namibia is vast with gorgeous scenery and starry nighttime skies as far as the eye can see. Big bouldery outcrops and ancient rock art of Damaraland fall into endless, mountainous sand dunes of Sossusvlei, which then fade into the voracious Atlantic sea along the Skeleton Coast. It’s a country the size of France, with a population not much more than that of Paris, so travelers can experience huge wilderness. Desert-adapted wildlife roam the stark moonscapes and traditional tribes, like the Himba, still live off the land in the Kunene region, where the horizon line has a special sort of finesse. Etosha National Park is a fantastic wildlife destination, famous for expansive salt pans that attract large herds of elephants. All of these destinations can be seen by flying from place to place, but doing a self-drive adventure is a safe and easy way to take it all in at your own pace.

Tanzania - The Greatest migration

Tanzania is timeless and time-honored, offering some of the last and vast wilderness areas. The country is known for a few superlatives — the tallest mountain in Africa, the largest land mammal migration, and the biggest National Park in Africa. From Kilimanjaro’s snow-capped peak, to the expansive plains of the Serengeti, to the mighty Selous / Nyerere National Park, there is so much in between that Tanzania has to offer. The Serengeti is a must-see, home to the millions of wildebeest migrating annually to follow the green grass and give birth. Ruaha National Park offers a truly wild walking safari experience, the Ngorongoro Crate delivers breathtaking views, and the magnificent Lake Tanganyika meets the Mahale Mountains where travelers can go trekking to see chimpanzees. Culture and unique history run deep on the coastal island of Zanzibar, where gorgeous white beaches fringe the town where intricate architecture from the 1600’s recalls a bygone era. The more we explore Tanzania, the more we understand how much there is to see.
