A trip to Kenya and Tanzania is what safari dreams are made of. Mass wildebeest migrations so momentous that the ground thunders underfoot, lakes painted pink with flamingos, the snow-capped peak of Africa’s highest mountain – these are just some of the wondrous sights on display. The Masai Mara is home to 95 species of animals, amphibians and reptiles and over 400 species of birds. The annual Great Migration from July to September attracts over a million wildebeest, zebra and impala, a phenomenon that has to be seen to be appreciated.
Enjoy marvellous views of Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest freestanding mountain in the world, as massive herds of elephants migrate across the dry plains of Amboseli National Park. Shift your gaze downwards to the incredible vistas over Ngorongoro Crater, known as ‘Africa’s Eden’. Even more spectacular than the views from above is a game drive along the crater floor among an unparalleled concentration of wildlife, including the highest density of predators in all of Africa.
