Kenya Safari Tour Reviews

My 6 day safari with Bon Voyage Safaris to Maasai Mara and Serengeti was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. The professionalism, expertise, and passion displayed by the staff, coupled with the breathtaking landscapes and abundant wildlife, made it an experience beyond compare. I highly recommend Bon Voyage Safaris to anyone seeking an unforgettable safari experience in East Africa.

It was definitely an experience of a lifetime and you would not regret it.

Absolutely fantastic! I was with a lovely group of people, the guide and driver were brilliant and the accommodation was out of this world. Only down side is lots of travelling but the experience made up for it. Loved the Fig Tree and masi mara.

Kenya Safari Tours - Compare 1,923 Packages

Kenya is the historical home of the East African safari, a land of sweeping savannah grasslands inhabited by charismatic megafauna, including big cats, the Big Five (elephant, buffalo, lion, leopard and rhino) and just about everything in between. Elsewhere, landscapes here stir the soul with deserts in the north, dense forests in the west, Rift Valley lakes in the center and tropical coast out east. The result for those on safari is an experienced safari industry ready to show you a seemingly endless parade of wildlife against one of the most beautiful backdrops in Africa.

8 Questions About Kenya Safaris

Answered by

Anthony ham.

When is the best time to visit Kenya?

“June to October is an excellent time for Kenya tours. During these months, the weather is generally dry (although it can get really hot in October and at the tail end of September) and most trails are open. This also coincides with the wildebeest and zebra migration in the Masai Mara National Reserve. This is the Dry season, and as it progresses, water sources for animals tend to dry up and become fewer, drawing animals in numbers to those that remain. One downside is that high-season prices apply during the Dry season months. Crowds are also larger – in some parks, the queue of safari vehicles can take away something from your experience, and some areas of the Masai Mara can be completely overwhelmed with vehicles during the migration. In the Dry season, June is one of my favorite months to visit. Visiting from November to February also has its devotees. At this time, migrating birds arrive, the rains rarely disrupt travel, and the country is transformed into a lovely shade of green. Most travelers avoid March to May because heavy rains are always possible and can transform safari trails into muddy bogs. That said, prices are lower and I visited once in April and was lucky to find very few other visitors (except for local visitors around Easter) and clear skies.”

Why visit Kenya? What are the major attractions?

“Outstanding wildlife is the main reason to visit Kenya. While many visitors come for the migration, Kenya is excellent year-round, with a large number of world-class national parks – apart from the Masai Mara, there’s Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, Tsavo East and Tsavo West National Parks and Samburu National Reserve – where superb wildlife viewing is almost guaranteed. It all adds up to Kenyan safari possibilities of great variety. Kenya is Big Five territory, with healthy populations of elephant, buffalo, lion, leopard and rhino, but the birdlife is also outstanding, as is the cultural element – this is the land of the Maasai, Samburu, Turkana and others. The sheer number of habitats, too, make for wonderful scenery – endless horizons in the Masai Mara, tropical forests in Kakamega Forest National Reserve, the starkly beautiful parks of the north, and peerless Kilimanjaro views from Amboseli.”

What does a Kenyan safari cost?

“It all depends on what sort of safari you want and can afford. Kenya has more variety than most other African safari destinations, with excellent options from the lower end of the pricing scale (from US$200 per person per day) to luxury Kenya safaris (up to US$1,000). While accommodation is partly what will determine the price for many travelers, it can also depend on how you wish to travel between the various parks. Air transfers, usually via Nairobi, can be expensive, but dramatically reduce the amount of time you’ll spend on the road, thereby maximizing the amount of time you’ll get to spend in the parks themselves. Remember also that most Kenya safari packages will include transport, accommodation, all meals and activities (including game drives).”

How is the wildlife viewing?

“It can vary from park to park. Most of the more popular parks that you can visit on a Kenya tour – Amboseli, Masai Mara, Samburu and Lake Nakuru – have fabulous wildlife-viewing opportunities. Dense wildlife populations in all of these parks make them good all-round safari destinations that enable you to see as many animals (and different species) as you can in a short period of time. Other parks are more specialist – such as the birds and primates of Kakamega, and the sitatunga in Saiwa Swamp National Park – allowing you to tick off a hard-to-find species, usually without the crowds. And a more exclusive Kenyan safari experience is possible in the conservancies of Laikipia Plateau – you pay more, but, with the exception of Ol Pejeta Conservancy, crowds are non-existent and wildlife viewing is excellent. At most of these conservancies, you can get off-road as well, meaning that you’ll get a lot closer to the animals than you will in a national park.”

How safe is Kenya for tourists?

“For the most part, a Kenya safari is safe, but there are some important things to know. Nairobi and, to a lesser extent, some other Kenyan cities have a reputation for violent crime. I’ve spent a significant amount of time in Nairobi and elsewhere and have never once had a problem, but it does happen often enough to mean that you should always be careful and follow local advice when it comes to these cities. Another potential danger comes from traveling on the country’s roads – the accident rate is extremely high. You can minimize the danger by spending as little time as you can in Nairobi and other cities (in any case, Kenya’s charm rarely resides in its major urban centers), by never traveling at night and by flying between the parks. The danger from wild animals is minimal; most Kenya safari trips and operators have excellent safety records, and you should be fine if you follow the safety briefings and instructions from guides.”

How do I select a reliable tour operator for a Kenyan safari?

“The best way to choose a Kenya safari is to read all about the safari experiences of other travelers at SafariBookings.com – chances are that their reviews will answer many of your questions (before you’ve asked them), as well as speak to the professionalism of the various operators with whom they’ve traveled. Otherwise, it’s extremely important that you contact any tour companies with whom you are considering traveling before you make a booking, and ask any questions you may have. This could be anything from the mode of transport, frequency of meals or daily safari schedules to the languages spoken by your guide or how many other travelers will be in your vehicle. Be as specific as you can. Not all operators offer customized Kenya tours, it’s true, but there’s no substitute for being informed. The operator’s willingness to answer questions can be a good guide to their dealings with people on safari.”

What type of accommodation can I expect?

“As a general rule, the higher your Kenya safari prices, the better you can expect your accommodation to be. At the lower end, campsites are usually basic, sometimes crowded and not always in the best locations within the national parks or reserves, but they are well priced and often have ample facilities such as showers and toilets. Lodges are the mainstays of the Kenya safari scene and the quality varies considerably. Many lodges within the reserves and national parks have excellent locations but are aging and in need of renovation, while others are luxurious and recently overhauled. In tented camps, including mobile camps, you’ll sleep in large, walk-in tents – they’re like lodge rooms in terms of size but with canvas for walls and floor. Canvas tents mean that you can hear the sounds of the African night. Hopefully you won’t hear the sounds of your neighboring guests if the tents are nicely spaced. Most lodge rooms and tents of this kind have comfortable (not camp) beds, sometimes a desk and usually a private bathroom; some even have an outdoor shower with no roof but walls that protect your modesty. Particularly in tented camps, you’ll most likely need to recharge your devices not in your room but at a power station in the main public area.”

What can I expect from a safari in Kenya?

“Most days out on safari begin with a quiet African voice waking you well before sunrise. After dressing quickly, and having a coffee or tea, you head out for a few hours in a safari vehicle (with other guests, a driver, guide and sometimes a tracker) looking for wildlife – this time, and the last hours before sunset, are ideal for viewing wildlife. You’ll return to the lodge or camp mid- to late morning for a proper sit-down breakfast. A few hours of relaxation, followed by lunch, then a few hours more doing very little occupies the hottest part of the day, when even animals retreat into the shade. Afternoon tea, often known as High Tea in a nod to colonial-era safari traditions, happens around 3 PM or 3:30 PM, then it’s back out looking for wildlife until after dark. Just before sunset, you’ll stop for another safari institution, the ‘Sundowner’, when you’ll watch the sunset while nursing the drink of your choice. You arrive back in camp in time to freshen up, then it’s dinner and off to bed, before it all starts again very early the next morning.”

Kenya Travel Guide

Kenya highlights.

• Amboseli National Park . One of Kenya's most famous tourist destinations because of its proximity to Africa's tallest peak, Mount Kilimanjaro. The reserve is a great spot to see elephant herds in Africa . The park is home to lions, cheetahs, giraffes, impalas, elands, waterbucks, gazelles, and more than 600 bird species.
• Maasai Mara National Reserve . Masai Mara, popularly known as the "Mountain of the Lions," is one of the most spectacular wildlife reserves in Africa, and is located in Kenya, east of Nairobi. The Serengeti's northern extension, the Mara, is a wildlife corridor that connects Tanzania and Kenya.
• Nairobi.  Kenya's largest city, Nairobi, is the country's capital. Visitors come to this region of Kenya because of its rich colonial history, extensive infrastructure, thriving tea and coffee industry, and several nature preserves and reserves. 
• Mount Kenya . Following Kilimanjaro, it is Kenya's highest and second-highest mountain in Africa, and its three highest peaks, Batian Nelion, Lenana, and Ngorongoro, are named for Masai chiefs.
• Tsavo West National Park . Tsavo West and East are Kenya's largest parks. These parks feature rivers, waterfalls, savannah, volcanic hills, a vast lava-rock plateau, and a diverse array of fauna. Tsavo East, located halfway between Nairobi and Mombasa, is known for its photogenic elephant herds rolling and soaking in red dust. With more rain and a greater variety of terrain, Tsavo West has some of the park's most stunning vistas up north.

What wildlife can I see on your safaris?

These magnificent animals are the cornerstone of every classic African safari, and our expert guides will take you to the best locations for spotting them in their natural habitats. From thrilling lion prides to massive elephant herds, you’ll be captivated by the beauty and power of these creatures.

A Diverse Tapestry of Wildlife

Beyond the Big Five, Kenya is home to a diverse tapestry of wildlife that populates its varied ecosystems. You can expect to encounter giraffes gracefully browsing the treetops, cheetahs sprinting across the plains in pursuit of prey, and hippos wallowing in serene waterholes. The country’s national parks and reserves are teeming with an array of antelope species, zebras, wildebeests, hyenas, and an impressive variety of birdlife. Our guides are not only experts at tracking and spotting these animals but also passionate about sharing their knowledge and insights with you, enhancing your safari experience.

Great Wildebeest Migration

One of the most awe-inspiring natural spectacles on Earth, the Great Wildebeest Migration , takes place in Kenya’s Masai Mara National Reserve. This annual migration sees millions of wildebeests, zebras, and other herbivores traveling in search of fresh grazing lands, attracting predators like lions and crocodiles. Witnessing this dramatic event is a bucket-list experience, and our safari itineraries are thoughtfully designed to coincide with the migration’s movements, ensuring you have a front-row seat to this remarkable wildlife phenomenon. Whether you’re a seasoned wildlife enthusiast or a first-time safari-goer, Kenya’s astounding biodiversity promises unforgettable encounters and photographic opportunities.

When is the best time to go on Kenya safari tours?

Choosing the best time for your Kenyan safari largely depends on your preferences and what you hope to experience. Kenya offers excellent safari opportunities year-round, but understanding the seasons can help you tailor your trip to match your interests.

Dry Season – June to October

For many travellers, the dry season, which spans from June to October, is the preferred time for a Kenyan safari. During this period, wildlife congregates around water sources, making it easier to spot animals. The weather is typically dry and cool, with sunny days and cool nights, making for comfortable game drives and outdoor activities. This season also aligns with the Great Wildebeest Migration in the Masai Mara , a spectacle you won’t want to miss.

Green Season – November to May

The green season, also known as the rainy season, runs from November to May. While it may not be the driest time to visit, the lush landscapes, vibrant flora, and the birth of newborn animals make this a unique and beautiful time for safaris. Bird enthusiasts will find this season particularly appealing as migratory bird species visit Kenya. Additionally, accommodation rates are often more budget-friendly during the green season, making it an attractive option for travellers looking for value without compromising on wildlife experiences. Ultimately, the best time for your Kenyan safari depends on your preferences, whether you seek prime game-viewing opportunities or wish to witness Kenya’s natural beauty at its greenest.

How do you support wildlife conservation efforts?

At Africa Kenya Safaris, we are deeply committed to wildlife conservation and sustainable tourism practices. Our mission is to not only provide unforgettable safari experiences but also to actively contribute to the preservation of Kenya’s incredible biodiversity and ecosystems.

Partnerships with Conservation Organizations

One of the ways we support wildlife conservation efforts is through partnerships with renowned conservation organizations. We work closely with local and international NGOs that are dedicated to protecting Kenya’s wildlife and natural habitats. These partnerships enable us to channel funds and resources into critical projects aimed at safeguarding endangered species, conserving vital ecosystems, and combatting poaching and habitat degradation.

Educational Initiatives

We firmly believe that education is key to fostering a culture of conservation. That’s why we actively engage in educational initiatives for both tourists and local communities. During our safaris, our expert guides provide valuable insights into the behaviour and conservation status of the wildlife you encounter. We also collaborate with local schools and communities to raise awareness about the importance of wildlife conservation and environmental stewardship. By supporting education, we hope to inspire future generations to become passionate advocates for Kenya’s wildlife and natural heritage.

What safety measures are in place during safaris?

At Africa Kenya Safaris, your safety is our top priority. We understand that embarking on a safari adventure involves exploring remote and wild landscapes, and we take comprehensive measures to ensure your well-being throughout your journey.

When is the best time to travel to Africa?

Ideally, the dry season is the best time for wildlife viewing in the African bush. During this time, the vegetation dries up, giving safari goers a clearer view of the wildlife. In addition, animals congregate around the water sources, which are in shorter supply during the dry months. In contrast, the wet season is the best time for bird watching in several African countries plus the landscape blossoms from dry plains to lush grasslands so it’s a very beautiful time to visit. The verdant landscape during the wet months attracts thousands of migrating bird species, making it a bird watcher’s paradise. Keep in mind that often during the wet months, the African park roads may become inaccessible so bird watching safaris may need more planning.

The best time to visit an African country depends on your plans. Some people want to explore the wilderness, while others want to go on cultural and historical adventures. Then there are adrenaline junkies who want to scale Africa’s tallest mountains or white water raft on thrilling rivers

Our handy table puts together the ideal time to visit some of Africa’s premium safari destinations. It also shows the best time for bird-watching.

The best time to visit Kenya is during the Dry season from late June to October (these are the best wildlife viewing months). The wildebeest migration usually reaches the Masai Mara in August and remains until October when they move back to the Serengeti in Tanzania. Wildlife viewing is good year-round, but this can differ for some parks. See below to learn when to visit which park.

Visiting Kenya in January

The height of summer is an excellent time to spot wildlife, both on the ground and in the air. Temperatures are hot but there will be the odd shower to cool things down, while the landscape is lush with long grass from the ‘short rains’ that fall in November and December. Down on the coast, the days are hot and sunny and the sea is at its clearest.

Visiting Kenya in February

Another great month for spotting wildlife, both on the ground and in the air. Temperatures remain high and the odd shower may fall, while there should still be long grass covering the landscape from the ‘short rains’ that fall in November and December.

Visiting Kenya in March

The weather gets wetter as Kenya approaches the ‘long rains’, but game viewing is still good.

Visiting Kenya in April

The ‘long rains’ of April and May can turn the tracks through the parks into quagmires and make the beaches along the Indian Ocean coastline hot and very wet, so this isn’t the best time to travel.

Visiting Kenya in May

The ‘long rains’ of April and May can turn the tracks through the parks into quagmires and the beaches along the Indian Ocean coastline hot and very wet, so this isn’t the best time to travel.

Visiting Kenya in June

The rains have finished for the most part, although some light showers are still possible, and the nights can be cool at altitude. The long dry season is on the horizon, and while grasses are high, making game harder to spot at times, it is a beautiful time to visit. People start anticipating the arrival of the Great Migration into the Masai Mara.

Visiting Kenya in July

The weather is temperate and dry but not too dusty, with occasional showers still possible, making this a good time to visit overall. The first herds arrive into the Masai Mara from Tanzania and peak travel and game viewing season is just around the corner.

Visiting Kenya in August

The temperatures are pleasant and it’s mostly dry, making it one of the peak times to visit. Fantastic game viewing can be enjoyed now, with the Great Migration at its height in the Masai Mara providing lots of action at the river crossings as countless wildebeest and zebra gather and cross the Mara and Talek Rivers.

Visiting Kenya in September

The weather is generally dry. The game viewing action continues in the Mara, and it is still excellent throughout Kenya for wildlife.

Visiting Kenya in October

As the mercury slowly starts to rise, a few showers are possible. However, it’s a lovely time to travel if you want to avoid the crowds but still have excellent game viewing opportunities. The migratory herds are leaving the Mara now, but excellent resident populations remain. All other Kenya destinations are great at this time of year.

Visiting Kenya in November

The short rains are starting and the temperature is hotter, but the Mara, along with most other destinations, remains open. However, on the Laikipia Plateau many camps are closed. There is still good game viewing under the heavier skies and activities continue. Crowds dissipate and you can often make the most of some good deals.

Visiting Kenya in December

The end of the year can be hot and potentially wet — it’s the middle of the short rains, with some camps closed (particularly in the north) and some open. Where camps are open, wildlife viewing remains very good, with high bird numbers present.

From witnessing millions of wildebeest, zebra and other antelope traverse the plains of the Serengeti to ascending to the snow-capped peak of Mount Kilimanjaro or sipping chilled drink on the white-sand beaches of Zanzibar, Tanzania offers travellers some of the most diverse safari experiences in Africa.

A vibrant and beautiful country with exceptional parks and reserves, Tanzania is blessed with the winning combination of unparalleled game viewing and dazzling tropical beaches. Because Tanzania is so vast (almost 1.5 times the size of Texas), it helps to divide the country’s major holiday destinations into four areas:

• Northern Safari Circuit  – the most popular Tanzania safari route comprising the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara, Tarangire and Kilimanjaro.
• Tanzania Coast and Islands  – the country’s beaches, especially those on islands like Zanzibar, are breath-taking and very accessible.
• Southern Tanzania  – includes the wonderfully wild and underrated Nyerere (previously Selous) and Ruaha, some of the best-kept Tanzania safari secrets.
• Western Tanzania  – head to the far-flung corners of Katavi and Mahale for the ultimate off-the-beaten-path Tanzania safaris.

Experience the natural splendour of Tanzania in all its beautiful, bursting, colourful glory when you visit in January.

Tanzania’s green season offers luscious, scenic landscapes and once-in-a-lifetime photography opportunities.

The best time of year to spot abby animals taking their first step on the savannah, February in Tanzania is incredible.

Bird watching, lush foliage, and cleansing afternoon thunderstorms greet visitors travelling in February.

An often-overlooked time of year, visiting Tanzania in March offers spectators beautiful birding opportunities and low crowds.

While occasionally hot and humid, the animals of Tanzania can often be seen out and about with their babies.

Scenic green landscapes, baby animals, flocks of colorful birds, and low crowds greet travelers visiting Tanzania in April.

While there may be showers during the day, the abundance of animals makes up for it.

Tanzania in May is your last chance to see the lush, natural splendor of Tanzania’s National Parks before the dry season.

Witness beautiful, green forests and wild, grassy plains full of young animals when visiting this time of year.

One of the best times of year visit, the dry landscapes in June will give visitors many opportunities to see animals.

With cool, dry weather, opportunities for water are scarce, meaning animals cluster around watering holes.

Visiting Tanzania in July is the perfect time to experience a safari the way it was meant to be done.

With the land becoming drier, animals can be spotted congregating near the closest watering holes.

Right in the middle of the long, dry season, Tanzania’s national parks become washed out – meaning animals are easier to spot.

A popular time to visit, August in Tanzania is one of the best chances to see animals in all their splendor.

With better visibility due to the cool, dry weather and shining Sun, September in Tanzania is one of the best times to visit.

The end of the long dry season, animals are desperate for food, making this the best time to see action.

Your last chance to experience an authentic safari atmosphere, October is the end of the long dry season in Tanzania.

Dense clusters of animals, easy driving through parks, and lots of animal action await you in October!

Come to Tanzania in November to witness nature spring back into life during the short rainy season.

With the return of the rain to the savannah, the fields, forests, and mountains of Tanzania explode with lush greenery.

Perfect and clear for photography, December is when thousands of birds return to Tanzania from their annual migration.

Finish your year off in warmth, comfort, and natural beauty by visiting Tanzania in December.

Although gorilla trekking in Uganda is considered a year-round activity, the humid rainy seasons and muddy terrain can make it extra challenging and lessen the chances of spotting the gorillas. To make it easier for your client, we recommend traveling during the dry seasons from January to February and June to September.

he best time to go gorilla trekking in Rwanda is during the dry season between the months of December to March, and June to September. Not only will the terrain be easier to navigate, it will also be much easier to spot gorillas hidden within the bamboo forests. It is important to note, however, that though it may be the dry season, the weather in Rwanda is notoriously unpredictable so advise your clients to pack a raincoat and waterproof hiking gear.

Every day on an African safari  is an adventure. Each moment is a new experience that’s unique for that single moment in time. No two animals are the same, and animal behavior is always changing. As for the scenery, you’ll experience everything from sweeping savannahs to lush marshlands, dense forests, and arid plains.

As for what it’s like to actually go on safari, let’s break it down.

• Most African safaris are multi-day experiences . At massive public parks, such as Masai Mara Natioal Reserve , Amboseli National Park , Tsavo Parks , Serengeti National Park e.t.c, you can do what’s called a day safari (start a little after sunrise and end before sunset), but if an African safari is your dream vacation, this isn’t what you want. Seven to ten days on safari is most common, and that includes two to three locations.
• You’ll stay at a lodge or camp in the bush.  This means you’ll be in a remote location in the African wilderness accessible by car or air. How luxurious your room is, depends on your budget and operator.
• Every day you’ll go on game drives to see the animals.  Most African safaris take you on twice-a-day game drives (3-4 hours in the morning and 3-4 hours in the afternoon). These game drives can happen in open-air or enclosed vehicles (this depends on where you go on safari and your operator). And it’s during these game drives that you leave your camp/lodge to drive around the bush and find animals.
• It’s an adventure, not a zoo.  The animals are not waiting for you. You have to go out and, with the help of your professional/local guide, find the animals.
• An African safari is all-inclusive: African safaris are not cheap, but the price includes all meals, game drives, guides, room, and board. Often, all drinks (including alcohol for superior luxury hotels) are encompassed in the price as well.

Absolutely!  A lot of safari lodges welcome younger children (although there are quite a few that do have age restrictions such as only above 6, 8 or even 13 years of age), and you should keep in mind that kids can become restless on long game drives or scared if they see an elephant or lion close by from an open vehicle.

For younger children the best option is probably a family-friendly safari lodge / tented camp in a malaria-free area of East Africa, where the lodge will provide specific kiddies game drives and activities. 

Older children can enjoy all the same experiences as the adults, but again we find that larger lodges where there are other kids about tend to be the best choice for most people with families.

Whatever the age of your kids, you will probably find that you want to mix things up a bit and include a beach or other activities as well as the safari – have a look at our suggestions for family safari holidays to get some ideas.

For the most part, a full day on safari will start with an early-morning wake-up followed by a game drive that starts at sunrise.

After a game drive of around 3 hours or so, you will return to the lodge or camp for breakfast and have some free-time to rest, sleep, go on a guided game walk (where offered). 

The afternoon game drive will head out towards the end of the day, and you will usually return to the lodge after dark if you are staying somewhere that allows this.

There are some places where the day might start a little later, and you may have an early breakfast at the lodge or camp before heading out for a full day game drive into a park. 

This trends to be more common in East Africa (particularly if you are with a driver guide) and also in national parks where game drives are not allowed out before dawn or after sundown.

Application steps

In order to apply for an eVisa, visitors should:

• Pay Using  Visa Card ,  Mastercard  and other  debit or credit cards .
• Await approval  then  download and print  the eVisa from your  eVisa account.
• Present your printed eVisa  to the immigration officer at the port of entry.

Points to note

• Visa processing fee is non refundable.
• Incomplete applications will be rejected.
• The possesion of an eVisa is not the final Authority to enter The Republic of Kenya.
• Engaging in any form of business or employment without a requisite permit or pass is an offence.
• A visa is required prior to entry into The Republic of Kenya.
• The e-Visa printout must be presented at the port of entry.
• It should take atleast 2 working days to get your eVisa.
• Each adult visitor to the Republic of Kenya is required to submit evisa applications in their personal eVisa account. Parents can apply for their children in the parents account.

When to Visit Uganda?

Uganda has near perfect weather all year round and therefore you can visit whenever you want. That said, there are months with higher rains than others however please note that Uganda being a tropical country, the sun soon comes out after the rain. Most people prefer to travel here in Jan – March and June – mid October and December. The rains are more common in April & May and then mid October – November.

Top things to do on safari in Uganda

There are various activities you can engage in while on a safari in Uganda. Some will bring out your adrenaline drive whereas others will require you to sit back and relax while enjoying the experience.

Gorilla trekking  – You can do this is Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable national park, Mgahinga gorilla national park, Rwanda’s Volcanoes national park and Congo’s Virunga national park. This requires you to purchase a gorilla tracking permit before you embark on this hike through the jungles with the help of your ranger guide. You are only allowed 1 hour in the presence of the gorillas once you locate them. Alternatively you can choose a gorilla habituation experience which accords you 4 hours in the presence of the gorillas.

Chimpanzee trekking  – Just like gorilla trekking, chimpanzee trekking is done in various forests in Uganda with the most famous being Budongo forest, Semliki reserve, Kalinzu forest, Kyambura gorge, Kibale forest. In Rwanda, chimpanzee trekking happens in Nyungwe forest where just like gorillas, you are allowed 1 hour with the chimps after locating them while on a chimp trek.

Game drives  – For those interested in the savannah national parks to watch wild animals as they go about their day, then game drives in the custom made safari vehicles is what you want. Your tour guide drives through different game tracks in search of the most sought after animals like Lions, Leopards, Elephants, Giraffes, Buffaloes etc.

Boat trips  – This is on the many lakes and rivers around the country. Sometimes it is for birding, game viewing or sunset cruises.

Kenya is synonymous with the word “#safari.” Perhaps no other place on the planet conjures such a spirit of adventure and romance. The diversity of things to do dazzles all who visit, and viewing the country’s abundant wildlife tops the list.

Beyond the world-famous safari parks lies a trove of coastal treasures. You can snorkel and dive fish-rich coral reefs, relax on pearly beaches, experience the melting pot of cultures and cuisines in #Mombasa, #Malindi, #Watamu, #Kilifi, #Diani & #Lamu and explore tropical islands steeped in Swahili history.

To experience the romance of  Kenya ‘s colorful colonial history captured in the film # OutOfAfrica , head to Nairobi. This bustling capital is the gateway to one of the world’s most evocative and exciting travel destinations.

• NAIROBI (AFRICA’S SAFARI CAPITAL & GREEN CITY IN THE SUN):

Kenya ‘s capital and largest city, Nairobi is legendary for its colorful colonial history. It was once the capital of British East Africa, luring settlers who came here to stake their fortune in the coffee and tea industries. Today, you can explore the city’s famous historic sites, as well as some excellent wildlife-related attractions.

The # NairobiNationalMuseum  is a great one-stop spot to see exhibits on  Kenya ‘s history, nature, culture, and contemporary art. Green thumbs will also enjoy the botanic gardens on the grounds. Another popular tourist attraction is the # KarenBlixenMuseum,  the restored residence of the famous Danish author of the book  Out of Africa , also known by her pen name, Isak Dinesen. To see wildlife without venturing far from the city center, visit # NairobiNationalPark , now a black rhino sanctuary and also home to a diversity of other African wildlife.

• MAASAI MARA NATIONAL RESERVE (8 TH  WONDER OF THE WORLD):

Maasai Mara National Reserve (also “#MasaiMara”) is one of the world’s most magnificent game reserves. Bordering  Tanzania , the Mara is the northern extension of the Serengeti and forms a wildlife corridor between the two countries. It’s named after the statuesque, red-cloaked Maasai people who live in the park and graze their animals here as they have done for centuries. In their language, Mara means “mottled,” perhaps a reference to the play of light and shadow from the acacia trees and cloud-studded skies on the vast grasslands.

The park is famous for the #Wildebeest Migration , when thousands of wildebeest, zebra, and Thomson’s gazelle travel to and from the Serengeti, from July through October. In the  Mara River , throngs of hippos and crocodiles lurk. The park is also known for providing excellent predator sightings (check #BigCatDiary on #BBC), thanks to its relatively large populations of #BigFive: lion, cheetah, and leopard and many other flora & fauna.

Thanks to the park’s altitude, the weather here is mild and gentle year-round.

• AMBOSELI NATIONAL PARK (ELEPHANT COUNTRY):

Crowned by  Mount Kilimanjaro , Africa’s highest peak, #AmboseliNationalPark is one of  Kenya ‘s most popular tourist parks. The name “Amboseli” comes from a Maasai word meaning “salty dust,” an apt description for the park’s parched conditions. The reserve is one of the best places in Africa to view large herds of free-ranging elephants up close. Other wildlife commonly spotted in the park includes #bigcats, such as lion and cheetah, as well as giraffe, impala, eland, waterbuck, gazelle, and more than 600 species of birds. Nature lovers can explore five different habitats here, ranging from the dried-up bed of  Lake Amboseli , wetlands with sulfur springs, savannah, and woodlands. Look for the local Maasai people who live in the area around the park.

The palm-fringed  Galana River  twists through the park providing excellent game viewing and a lush counterpoint to the arid plains. Other highlights here include the #YattaPlateau, the world’s longest lava flow; #MudandaRock; and the #LugardFalls, which spill into rapids and crocodile-filled pools.

Highlights here are # MzimaSprings , a series of natural springs with large populations of hippos and crocodiles; # ChaimuCrater , a great spot for seeing birds of prey; and # NguliaRhinoSanctuary . Wildlife is not as easy to see in Tsavo West because of the denser vegetation, but the beautiful scenery more than compensates.

On the banks of the palm-lined  Ewaso Nyiro River , #SamburuNationalReserve, Buffalo Springs, and Shaba Reserves lie in an arid region in the remote north of  Kenya . #ShabaNationalReserve is one of two areas where #GeorgeAdamson and #JoyAdamson raised #Elsa the lioness, made famous in the film # BornFree .

Whilst it might not appear obvious at first, you can actually tell quite a lot about a safari park or game reserve by its name, and it can be important to understand the differences between National Parks, Private Concessions, Private Game Reserves, and Nature Reserves.  Broadly speaking:

National Parks  are run by the government – they are usually large and in some of the best locations with excellent wildlife.  They tend have very strict rules for visitors, and the government run accommodation is often fairly basic, however many national parks also have some privately run lodges and camps.

Private Concessions  are usually government or community-owned land that has been leased to a private company for them to manage the land and operate safaris for visitors.  This is faily common in Botswana, Kenya and Tanzania.

Private Game Reserves  are really a South African phenomenon, although there asre some in other countries as well.  These are privately run reserves, often bordering larger national parks, and the very best can offer some of the most memorable game viewing experiences as the guides have greater freedom to track the wildlife off-road.  Most private reserves are smaller than National Parks althought some can be quite large.

Nature Reserves  can be government or privately owned, and they usually have a greater emphasis on landscapes, scenery, and maybe some animals such as antelope, zebra and giraffe (plains game).  Nature Reserves would not normally have the Big 5, and the emphasis is much more on enjoying the nature around you rather than going out to track particular types of animal.

So, Why Africa? Why Magical Kenya? A friend of mine once asked me,  ‘‘Can you describe the emotion an African safari creates?’’  You are lifted. Out of whatever pit, unbound from whatever tie, released from whatever fear. You are lifted and you see it all from above. If I have ever seen magic, it has been in Africa.

Nothing but breathing the air of Africa and Magical Kenya to be particular, and actually walking through it, can communicate the indescribable sensations. It’s really beautiful. It feels like God visits everywhere else but lives in Africa.

Africa is mystic; it is wild; it is a sweltering inferno; it is a photographer’s paradise, a hunter’s Valhalla, an escapist’s Utopia.  It is what you will, and it withstands all interpretations. It is the last vestige of a dead world or the cradle of a shiny new one. To a lot of people, as to myself, it is just home.

Africa changes you forever, like nowhere on earth.  Once you have been there, you will never be the same. But how do you begin to describe its magic to someone who has never felt it? How can you explain the fascination of this vast, dusty continent, whose oldest roads are elephant paths? Could it be because  Africa is the place of all our beginnings, the cradle of mankind , where our species first stood upright on the savannahs of long ago? Few can sojourn long within the  unspoilt wilderness  of a game sanctuary, surrounded on all sides by its confiding animals, without absorbing its atmosphere; the Spirit of the Wild is quick to assert supremacy, and no man of any sensibility can resist her.

To  witness that calm rhythm of life revives our worn souls  and recaptures a feeling of belonging to the natural world. No one can return from the Maasai Mara unchanged, for tawny Big 5 & Wildebeest Migration will forever prowl our memory and great herds throng our imagination.

There is something about an  African safari life that makes you forget all your sorrows  and feel as if you had drunk half a bottle of champagne -bubbling over with heartfelt gratitude for being alive.

In Africa you have space… there is a profound sense of space here, space and sky. Everything in Africa bites, but the safari bug is worst of all.

You cannot leave Africa , Africa said. It is always with you, there inside your head. Our rivers run in currents in the swirl of your thumbprints; our drumbeats counting out your pulse; our coastline the silhouette of your soul.

There is a language going on out there – the language of the wild . Roars, snorts, trumpets, squeals, whoops and chirps have meaning derived over eons of expression…we have yet to become fluent in the language – and music – of the wild. The only man I envy is the man who has not yet been to Africa – for he has so much to look forward to. When you leave Africa, as the plane lifts, you feel that more than leaving a continent you’re leaving a state of mind. Whatever awaits you at the other end of your journey will be of a different order of existence.

Africa – You can see a sunset and believe you have witnessed the Hand of God . You watch the slope lope of a lioness and forget to breathe. You marvel at the tripod of a giraffe bent to water. In Africa, there are iridescent blues on the wings of birds that you do not see anywhere else in nature. In Africa, in the midday heart, you can see blisters in the atmosphere.

When you are  in Africa, you feel primordial,  rocked in the cradle of the world.

The word safari means “journey” in Swahili. Originally from the Arabic ( safara ) meaning travel . The verb for “to travel” in Swahili is “ safiri “, the noun for the journey is “safari”. These words are used for any type of journey, e.g. by bus from Nairobi to Mombasa. A safari therefore is an overland journey. It usually refers to a trip by tourists to Africa, traditionally for a big-game hunt and in more modern times to watch and photograph big game and other wildlife as a safari holiday. There is a certain theme or style associated with the word, which includes khaki clothing, belted bush jackets, pith helmets or slouch hats, to animal skins. They travel in custom-built safari vehicles. Although the word safari came to popular usage in reference to hunting and touring expeditions in East Africa, it is now used generally to mean any long or adventurous journey or expedition, e.g. wildlife watching safaris , photography safaris , family safaris , mountain climbing tours , beach vacations , train tours , eco-safaris etc.

Safari has now become a more eco-friendly form of adventure for people of all ages and walks of life. Travelling to Africa, Safari has become the most popular form of holiday to Africa, combining adventure with total comfort to ever-increasing travellers. On a standard safari, one can visit Africa’s beautiful game reserves , seeing hundreds of rare birds and mammals from your chauffeured safari vehicle . Relax in comfortable world-class hotels and lodges surrounded by scenic valleys and plains. Time takes on a new meaning as you learn to sit quietly listening to the sounds of Africa. The balance of nature will no longer be empty words you will see it daily in the drama of animals fighting for their survival and coexistence..

Single supplements are charges added to solo travellers or any person in a group that’s on safari, occupying a single room.

Most hotels provide double rooms for people sharing a room which is a common costing price by Hotels/Camps/Lodges. That’s why we have quoted all our safaris as per person sharing and a minimum of two pax per safari.

The Big 5 are lion, elephant, leopard, rhino and buffalo – these were deemed to be the animals that were most difficult to hunt on foot, and who, when cornered, presented the most danger to the hunter.  The safaris we book for our clients are all photographic safaris, but seeing the Big 5 remains a major highlight for visitors to Africa.  

Vaccinations that need to be considered are Hepatitis A & B and Typhoid, we suggest you contact a travelers clinic for specific recommendations for the country you are traveling to. A Yellow Fever vaccination is required if you are traveling to Zanzibar. 

Africa is home to over 2,300 bird species, of which 64% are endemic to the continent. We have put together a list of Africa’s top birding destinations, where you can expect to see remarkable bird species such as African fish eagle, African pygmy-kingfisher, Böhm’s bee-eater, great cormorant, golden oriole, grey crowned crane, hooded vulture, lilac-breasted roller, silvery-cheeked hornbill, white-bellied go-away bird, and white-faced duck.

Coincidentally, these destinations also offer excellent wildlife viewing spots. You can watch the great wildebeest migration in Maasai Mara and Serengeti, go  g orilla tracking in the heart of Uganda, or explore marine life in the coastal getaways.

A safari will always depend with your budget and the desired days of stay.

Adeli Kenya Safaris Recommends 3 days and above for a safari within East Africa.

For Family Safaris , Adeli Kenya Safaris recommend more than 7 days and above for great experiences and child exposure.

Honeymoon Safaris are one of the many categories Adeli Kenya Safaris offers and its ecommended to take more than 7 days.

Photography Safaris depends with your exact type of photography you want such as big cats, birds, landscapes and others. Adeli Kenya Safaris Recommends more than 14 Days.

There is a safari priced for just about everybody, but there are major differences in accommodations, services, transportation and food. It’s important that you consider how much “roughing’ it” you’re willing to do before you plan your safari.

If you are interested in a custom tour for you and your family, this will also affect the price tag. Generally speaking, you would spend $300 US Dollars to $900 US Dollars per person, per day range. You might stay in luxury Camps and Lodges, have full service camping and some domestic flight time.

If you can pay between $900 and $2500 per person per day, you can stay in small, remote, five-star lodges and luxury plus camps and travel more by plane (it’s less tiring and offers spectacular views!).

Other factors that up the price are exotic modes of travel, such as by hot air balloon and special cultural experiences such as visiting a bush home, will be more expensive.

Don’t forget airfare to Africa, which is NOT included in your safari package. 

East Africa’s wild places rank among Africa’s best places to see lions, leopards and cheetahs. These are the carnivores that bring the savannah alive, the apex predators that bring fear and frisson to vast herds of prey wildlife and safari-goers alike, animating the East African plains by their mere presence. And if you know where to look, you may just see all three in a single day.

MASAI MARA NATIONAL RESERVE – # KENYA  -BIG CAT DIARY:

The Masai Mara is a safari cliché and there’s a very good reason that the BBC filmed its classic  Big Cat Diary  here. Lion prides stalk the plains, building their family groups twenty and thirty strong around the river confluences and marshes that dominate the central Mara. Leopards keep to the riverine edges, waiting for the time when zebra and wildebeest inevitably, reluctantly come down to drink. And cheetahs, the bottom of the big cat food chain, scan the horizon from their termite mound vantage points.

TSAVO EAST & WEST NATIONAL PARKS- #KENYA. LAND OF THE MAN-EATERS OF TSAVO’

Kenya’s biggest park is also arguably its wildest, an epic, red-soil territory of rugged mountains, endless plains and palm-fringed rivers. It was in Tsavo that the legend of man-eating lions was born in the late nineteenth century, and it remains a stronghold of lions – the two Tsavo parks are home to an estimated 700 lions, one-third of all lions in  Kenya . Tsavo West is renowned for its leopards, while in Tsavo East cheetahs are commonly seen on the plains east of the Aruba Dam.

AMBOSELI NATIONAL PARK –  KENYA .

The Amboseli ecosystem is famous for its elephants set against a backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro, but lions and cheetahs are also commonly sighted here throughout the dry season.

LAKE NAKURU NATIONAL PARK –  KENYA .

As Kenya’s human population crowds ever closer, parks like Lake Nakuru have become islands in a vast sea of humanity. Inhabiting this island, one of the country’s most compact parks, is a rare population of tree-climbing lions. Lake Nakuru is also one of the best places in  Kenya  to see leopards. The lesson of Lake Nakuru is, therefore, simple: look up into the branches as or you might miss the cats altogether.

RUAHA NATIONAL PARK-  TANZANIA .

Chances are that you’ll have lion sightings completely to yourself at Ruaha. Hidden away in southern  Tanzania , Ruaha National Park sees fewer than 6 000 visitors a year – or about 16 a day – which makes it one of Africa’s hidden treasures.

SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK-  TANZANIA .

Millions of wildebeests joined by tens of thousands of zebra and gazelle provide the perfect meal for lions in the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem. The Grumeti Game Reserve in the west and the central Seronera region are some of the best spots in the Serengeti National Park to see lions.

NGORONGORO CRATER –  TANZANIA :

If you’re looking for some of the easiest and most rewarding game viewing in East Africa, then head down onto the floor of the world’s largest inactive volcanic caldera. Home to about 30 000 animals – including powerful lions – the Ngorongoro Crater delivers an incredible Big 5 safari experience in an extraordinary setting.

LAKE MANYARA PARK – FAMOUS FOR TREE-CLIMBING LIONS

Lake Manyara is worth visiting for its excellent lion sightings. Lake Manyara Park is famous for its  tree-climbing lions , a feline behviour usually displayed by leopards.

KIDEPO VALLEY NATIONAL PARK:  UGANDA .

It is the only park in  Uganda  with an increasing lion population. Kidepo Valley Park was named the number 3 park in Africa. In December of 2015, CNN called Kidepo Valley Park the best destination and the best Destination it is, a park where you will find an Africa as it was 50 years ago.

QUEEN ELIZABETH NATIONAL PARK:  UGANDA .

Most visitors to Queen Elizabeth will see lions in the northern area such as the Kasenyi Plains.  This is a very fruitful area for those on a photographic Lion Hunt.

MURCHISON FALLS NATIONAL PARK:  UGANDA

Most visitors spot some lions while on a game drive here and unlike in other places – it does not take long from your lodge to the game tracks.

AKAGERA NATIONAL PARK – # RWANDA :

Though more known for mountain gorilla safaris, Rwanda is also not left out the lion bonanza with Akagera national park as her savannah reserve puts her on the same footing with Tanzania,  Kenya , and Uganda. Akagera today boasts the presence of the big five within its boundaries after the introduction of seven lions in 2015 from  South Africa  that included two males and five females. Later in 2017, more two males were also brought in and they have settled in comfortably. Since the reintroduction, about a dozen cubs hav

Binoculars are very important. You will not always have the animals under your nose! A good pair of 8 x 30 or 8 x 42 would be ideal. The small pocket pairs can become frustrating to use unless they are a very good make.

The 4×4 Safari Lancruiser is built and customized for the demands of an African safari adventure – more doors for easy access, 2 fuel tanks, and two spare tires.

The Jeep’s 4 x 4 all-wheel drive and higher clearance from the ground  will get you through the tough African terrain, up hills, crossing streams and over the rough bush.

The Jeep’s pop up rooftop ensures an unobstructed 360-degree views. You’ll be journeying to and traversing the African landscape in the ultimate safari vehicle.

The jeep has more room and leg space to move around than the safari minivan.

The Jeep’s special suspension offers a more comfortable ride  on rough ground as compared to a safari van.

Off-road 4×4 Safari Lancruiser go where other vehicles fear to tread – head deeper into the bush and easily go off-road to pursue the elusive wildlife.

The higher seating and large windows  in our Jeeps create better visibility to view and photograph wildlife.

The African bush and it’s many natural wonders is certainly the highlight of your safari vacation time in Kenya, but your choice of accommodation will further enhance the experience. Thankfully, all the top parks and wildlife conservancies feature an elegant variety of accommodation options to suit anyone, from honeymooners to families. Whether you are looking for something rustic to fully immerse yourself in the bush experience or prefer to retire in an all-out luxurious lodge, Adeli Kenya Safaris has the knowledge to find your perfect Kenya trip accommodation and deliver the most authentic safari experience for you.

SAFARI ACCOMMODATION OPTIONS:

There is a huge choice of accommodation in Kenya. Each property is different and, with so much choice, it is easy to get it wrong. Here is a rough guide to the options on offer:

Mobile Bush Camps: As the name suggests, these are small mobile camps that are set up for a finite number of nights. Usually an overnight bush experience offered by permanent lodges, they can also be part of a longer walking safari. These fully serviced camps are set up for you and have simple dome tents, a small camp bed and a mattress, with bedding provided. Simple, but delicious meals are prepared for you and hot water is brought on demand to wash. There is a long-drop toilet (hole in the ground) in a separate small tent, although some of the larger tents have their own bucket showers at the back.

Permanent Tented Camps:

These are classic, East African camps, with only a handful of spacious, stylish, tented rooms. They feature comfortable beds and fine linen, small dressers, soft furnishings and private en-suite facilities. Usually, there is a patio or decking area outside the tent. These camps are typified by great service levels, shared safari vehicles and communal dining in the evening, with drinks (including alcohol) often included in the cost. They are great fun and very flexible.

Luxury Camps:

Fine dining, silver service and spa treatments feature heavily, whilst some properties offer private vehicles for game drives. Properties can be a mixture of canvas and permanent structure, but always with elegant and eclectic designs. There are exceptional levels of service, with an emphasis on personal touches and attention to detail.

Private Ranches: These are usually family homesteads or working ranches that have been converted into luxury accommodation. They offer some of the warmest welcomes in Africa, given the families themselves usually manage the properties and live on site. Again, only a handful of rooms, with a warmth and hospitality you would only find in someone’s home.

There is usually a wide range of activities on offer, given the surrounding land is owned by the lodge. Therefore, they are very flexible for large groups or families, although individuals and couples are also welcome.

Private Houses and Villas:

Perfect for families and large groups who want the privacy and flexibility of enjoying their holiday exactly as they like it. Fully staffed, with private guides and vehicles, these properties can manage wildlife activities and meal times around the group, to ensure everyone is happy. They can be found in both the wildlife areas and along the coast.

Coastal beach resorts, hotels & AirBnBs : The best places to stay are the small, boutique-style retreats. Often featuring cool Swahili designs, they provide shade from the sun, overlooking palm fringed beaches. Many have pools, which helps when the tide is out. Again, some are better suited for families with a range of activities on offer, whilst others are perfect for a quiet retreat or honeymoon.

All the camps and lodges that we use in Africa supply filtered and bottled water. We do encourage people not to over use the bottled water, for enviromental reasons; it is always a good idea to take a personal water flask with you, which can be filled up by the camps clean water supply.

Power in the lodges varies from area to area; for the most part 12 volt battery power is provided, which is charged by generators whilst you are out of camp during the day. You will be able to charge your camera batteries whilst staying in a lodge. On the camping and canoeing safaris the lights are limited to hurricane lamps and flashlights, for charging batteries etc. you can use an adapter to plug into the vehicle power outlet.

Kenya safaris 2024 & 2025.

The spiritual home of safari, Kenya’s parks and reserves offer a wonderfully diverse range of landscapes and experiences.

Masai Mara National Reserve

The grassland plains and rolling bush-covered hills of the Masai Mara provide some of the best game viewings in Africa. The wildebeest migration during August to October is famous, but throughout the year there is still an abundance of wildlife in the park, including the ‘big five’, zebra, cheetah, topi, giraffe, impala, baboons and over 500 species of bird. Try a hot air balloon ride for the ultimate Mara adventure.

Stay on the banks of the Mara River, within the Masai Mara at Governors Camp .

Amboseli & Tsavo National Parks

In the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro, the low savannah grasslands of both these parks provide ideal animal viewing opportunities. Much of the smaller Amboseli National Park is an ancient dry lake bed surrounded by fertile swampland, where vegetation is lush and animal and birdlife abundant. Tsavo is flatter with thornbush, acacia and baobab trees providing some shade.

For a truly authentic experience in the heart of Amboseli National Park, stay at Amboseli Serena Lodge . Alternatively, you could stay at the unique Salt Lick Safari Lodge in Tsavo West National Park, which overlooks a waterhole.

Samburu, Shaba & Aberdare

Situated 230 miles north of Nairobi at the edge of the arid northeast region, Samburu and Shaba are well known for their herds of elephant and large numbers of leopard, along with the more unusual Grevy’s zebra and reticulated giraffe. Watch out for the crocodiles by the Ewaso Ngiro River, a magnet for all wildlife at the end of the day. Aberdare has wooded highlands with plenty of monkeys and amazing wildlife.

Stay within the Samburu Game Reserve at the simple yet elegant Elephant Bedroom .

Lakes Nakuru & Naivasha

Lying at the heart of the Great Rift Valley, these two magnificent lakes have attracted bird and animal life for thousands of years. In its own National Park, Lake Nakuru is renowned for its rhino and leopard populations and there is also chance of seeing some flamingos. Naivasha is Kenya’s highest lake, sitting at an altitude of over 1,800 metres and its fresh water attracts over 400 species of native bird as well as hippos.

Client Testimonials 

My husband and I with 2 other family friends planned our safari with Daydream Safaris and for 5 Days Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru and it was wonderful. I loved the smooth welcome from their staff in Nairobi from the airport. Love you Daydream Safaris.

We had an amazing 7-day Kenya trip with Daydream Safaris. The tour started with a Nairobi tour then moving on to Aberdare, Naivasha, Nakuru, Masai Mara and ending with a day tour in Nairobi. We would really recommend Daydream Safaris for their flexibility and assistance during the entire trip. Special appreciation for Kennedy who was involved in helping us making the tour plan until dropping us back to Airport.

Tanzania safaris frequently asked questions

When is the best time to visit tanzania.

The best times to visit Tanzania are December through March or June through October during the dry seasons, when the game viewing is at its best. The rains usually last from April to May then occur again in November when there are fewer tourists and vegetation flourishes. During February, wildebeest are calving, giving you a front row seat to the baby's first moments in the savannah.

How much does a safari in Tanzania cost?

A mid-range safari with lodging runs $350 to $400 per person, per day while a high end luxury safari with all the trimmings ranges from $600 to about $1000 per person, per day. Read more about safari costs for Tanzania.

Kenya or Tanzania: which is better for safari?

Both countries are reputed for outstanding game viewing. Tanzania’s jaw-dropping Mount Kilimanjaro, sweeping coffee plantations and the exotic island of Zanzibar make it unique from its northern neighbor, while Kenya's lush green landscapes make it a bit less tropical, climate-wise. The two countries are frequently combined into a single journey, given their proximity to each other and the fact that they are both locations for the must-see Great Migration. Read more about whether Kenya or Tanzania is better for a safari .

When and what is the Great Migration?

The Great Migration is a wildlife spectacle, sometimes called The Greatest Show on Earth by safari enthusiasts, during which hundreds of wildebeest and other mammals head towards greener grazing pastures during East Africa's dry season. It is heavily dependent on the weather, specifically the rain which brings new vegetation upon which the wildebeest feed. Generally-speaking, herds are in the Serengeti from November to May. In May, as the grass dries up, herds begin the 500-mile migration north and by June they are in the greener plains of Kenya’s Maasai Mara. They usually stay here until October. From January on, they alternate between woodlands and plains, depending on the weather. In anticipation of the short rains—and the greener grasslands that come with it—the herds begin their trek down to the Serengeti. In November and December, they arrive to a flourishing green landscape where they stay until the cycle begins again.

Uganda Safari & Gorilla Trekking FAQs

The best time to go gorilla trekking in Uganda is during the dry season (December– February and June - August) when conditions are especially good for trekking to view mountain gorillas. Game drives in the national parks are also fruitful during this time.

Wear neutral colored, lightweight clothing on your Uganda safari. Dress in layers and bring a warm sweater for morning and nighttime game drives. For gorilla trekking, bring a waterproof rain jacket, hiking boots, long socks, hiking pants, bug repellant, and a daypack. A sunhat and gardening gloves are also a good idea; the jungle is dense and thick.

Natural World Kenya Safaris offers Gorilla Trekking Safaris in Uganda with basic accommodations starting at $96 per person, per day, plus the Uganda gorilla trekking permit which costs $700 per person per day (the permits are required, and those fees are non-negotiable.) Costs increase from there. Natural World Safaris can provide basic, mid-range, and luxury trekking safaris and is eager to work with almost any budget.

Suggested tips range from $10 to $20 per person per day for a private guide and the same amount for your driver if that is a different person than your guide.

If you are on a guided safari or gorilla trek in Uganda, your chances of encountering problems are minimal. However, it is always a good idea to take precautions on your safari, particularly when traveling through urban areas or in regions close to the border with the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

The trek to spot gorillas can be strenuous. It could take anywhere from two to eight hours to find and observe the gorillas, depending on the time of year. Be prepared to hike for multiple hours through uneven terrain at high altitude. It is advisable to train before any gorilla trekking trip by walking uphill, or better yet, by taking day hikes.

When it comes to wildlife viewing, there are never any guarantees. There are no fences in the parks in Uganda and the gorillas are free to roam. However, our expert guides and gorilla trackers have years of experience taking guests to see these magnificent creatures. They know their favorite spots to congregate and work closely with park officials each day to provide the best possible chance of seeing gorillas in the wild.

Most mountain gorillas in Uganda live at between 4,900 to 7,500 feet. Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, home to the country’s mountain gorillas, has a high point of 8,550ft.

Rwanda Safari & Gorilla Trekking FAQs

The best time to go on a gorilla trek in Rwanda is during the dry season (June - September) when conditions are best for trekking to view the country’s highlight: the fascinating mountain gorillas.

Wear neutral colored, lightweight clothing on your Rwanda gorilla trek. Dress in layers and don’t forget a sweater for chilly morning and nighttime game drives. For gorilla trekking, bring a waterproof rain jacket, broken-in hiking boots, long socks, hiking pants, bug repellant, and a daypack. A sun visor and protective gloves – such as gardening gloves - are also useful.

Natural World Kenya Safaris offers Gorilla Trekking Safaris in Rwanda with basic accommodations starting at $720 per person, per day, plus the Rwanda gorilla trekking permit which costs $1,500 per person per day (the permits are required, and those fees are non-negotiable.) Costs increase from there. Natural World Safaris can provide basic, mid-range, and luxury trekking safaris and is eager to work with almost any budget.

Suggested tips for your guide are $25 per person, per day for a private guide and the same amount for your driver if that is a different person than your guide.

Rwanda is one of the safest countries in Africa, particularly if you are on a guided safari or gorilla trek. Your chances of encountering problems are minimal. However, it is always a good idea to take precautions on your safari, particularly when traveling through urban areas. Cross-border travel into the Democratic Republic of the Congo or Burundi is not safe, however, so steer clear of this.

When it comes to wildlife viewing, there are never any guarantees. There are no fences in the parks in Rwanda and the gorillas are free to roam. However, our expert guides and gorilla trackers have years of experience taking guests to see these magnificent creatures. They know their favorite spots to congregate and work closely with park officials each day to provide the best possible chance of seeing gorillas in the wild.

Most mountain gorillas in Rwanda live at between 8,000 to 13,000 feet. Volcanoes National Park has a high point of 15,000ft.

Spot endangered black and white rhino in Lake Nakuru National Park

While the park’s stunning Lake Nakuru isn’t a sight to scoff at, it’s Africa’s endangered rhino population that avid safari-goers long to see. If you’re lucky, you might spot one or two white rhinos stopping to drink at the water’s edge after a morning spent walking the arid landscape. But if you’re really lucky, you might spot an elusive black rhino – an animal that’s been critically endangered since 1996.

Explore the Masai Mara Game Reserve in search of lions and cheetahs

The Masai Mara Game Reserve promises a whole heap of unforgettable wildlife sightings, from a herd of elephants wandering across the landscape to gazelles staying wary of a predator’s watchful gaze. But the chance to catch sight of a black-maned lion as it basks in the African sun or see the spots of a cheetah as it prowls through the brush makes all of those early wake-up calls and late nights worth it. 

Learn about the annual wildebeest migration across the Great Rift Valley

Your local leader’s not just there to keep you safe from the wild animals you see on your game drives but also to teach you about their mating rituals, eating patterns and migration habits. As you cross the Great Rift Valley, learn about the spectacular display of wildebeest migration that happens every year where one million wildebeest move towards greener pastures into the Masai Mara region. 

Cruise along Lake Naivasha for a chance to see thirsty hippos and birdlife

Take your wildlife adventure off land and onto water with a boat trip on Lake Naivasha, the highest lake in Kenya’s Great Rift Valley. Cruise the lake’s surface in search of thirsty, thirsty hippos in need of rehydration at the water’s edge and get your camera out to take photos of the magnificent birdlife in this part of the world – think African fish eagles, saddle-billed storks and lesser flamingoes.

When's the best time to go on a safari in Kenya?

Generally speaking, January, February and June to October are the best times to go on safari in Africa. This is the dry season, so animals tend to come out into more open spaces in search of water, making them easier to spot. However, you’ll be able to spot animals year-round and enjoy fewer crowds if you travel outside peak season.

Am I guaranteed to see animals?

We can’t guarantee you’ll spot the Big 5, but you’d have to be seriously unlucky to see no animals at all. On our safaris, you’ll explore some of the best game parks and national reserves in the world. These protected areas are filled with a huge variety of species and your expert driver and local leader will be on hand to point you in the right direction (literally).

What are the "Big Five"?

The “Big 5” used to refer to the five big game animals that were the most difficult to hunt. Now that most shooting is done on a camera, the Big 5 are the most exciting animals to spot while on safari: the lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant, and Cape buffalo.

What should I pack for a safari in Kenya?

Loose, light layers in neutral colours are the best attire for a safari (dark colours will get hot in the sun and can attract the Tsetse fly). You’ll also want a sun hat, some good walking shoes, a camera, sunscreen and bug spray. For more details, check out our  ultimate Africa packing guide . 

What type of food will be served on a safari in Kenya?

It depends on the trip style you've chosen. On our Basix trips, you’ll have a cook travelling with you who'll whip up a variety of local and Western-style dishes. Along your route, your cook will stop to purchase fresh, locally sourced food for your meals. You can expect a variety of things for breakfast like fruit, eggs, toast and cereal; lunch is often sandwiches and salads; and dinner is usually a hearty meal like pasta, curry or a BBQ.

On our Original and Comfort trips there'll be more meals at camps and lodges along the way. One thing's for sure: you definitely won't be going hungry on safari!

What are the toilets and showers like on safari?

Most of the permanent tented camps will have private bathrooms with flushing toilets and showers with warm water.

Many of the campsites we stay at have communal facilities with flushing toilets and showers with warm water. However, in some of the more remote areas, there may only be basic facilities (toilets and cold running water).

Will I be able to use my mobile phone on safari?

Some of our hotels and campsites will have Wi-Fi, however, internet and phone access may be limited in more remote areas. But you won’t think twice about emails and social media when you’re watching a pride of lions prowl through long grass or enjoying a drink around the campfire with your group.

Are Intrepid's Kenya safaris accessible for travellers with disabilities?

We are committed to making travel accessible to everyone, so we will work with you to assess whether you will be able to complete an existing itinerary, or whether we will be able to make reasonable adjustments to meet your needs before you book. Please see our  accessible travel page  for more information.

Athletics Kenya Track and Field Paris 2024 Olympics Trials: Preview, full schedule, and how to watch live action

The cream of Kenyan athletics will be at the Nyayo National Stadium, Nairobi on 14 and 15 June to battle for places at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games*.

Athletics Kenya has invited about 280 athletes across track and field events to try and book a berth for Paris, provided they have met the 2024 World Athletics Rankings as well as the anti-doping requirements.

The Kenyan Trials for the Olympics will parade some of the world’s best athletes, including Faith Kipyegon, Ferdinand Omanyala, Mary Moraa, Emmanuel Wanyonyi and Beatrice Chebet.

Athletes to watch at the Athletics Kenya Paris 2024 Olympic Trials

In the men's events, Ferdinand Omanyala will be the man to beat in the 100m as he seeks to qualify for his second consecutive Olympics after making the Tokyo 2020 Games final.

He comes off a third-place finish at Racers Grand Prix behind the winner, Jamaican Oblique Seville, and second-placed finisher Noah Lyles.

Emmanuel Wanyonyi is not short on confidence as he targets his first Olympics at the two lap distance.

He topped the Kip Keino Classic and the Diamond League race in Marrakech, but his season highlight has been the mile world record he set in Germany in April. The reigning world 800m silver medallist is the man to watch in the entry list that also includes world and Olympic champion Emmanuel Korir and Commonwealth Games champion Wycliffe Kinyamal.

The last two seasons have been a struggle for Timothy Cheruiyot , but the 2019 world gold medallist is getting back to his best form at the right time. He finished in second position in the Diamond League events in Doha and Oslo. In the latter, he just lost on the line to home favourite Jakob Ingebrigsten who dived to victory.

The Olympic silver medallist admitted he was worried about the lingering torn knee injury and is relieved to be peaking just ahead of his second Games. But he’s only the third fastest man over 1500m this year, with Reynold Cheruiyot and Brian Komen holding the season’s fastest times from the Kip Keino Classic.

The 3000m steeplechase is worth keeping an eye on, with the return of Rio Olympic gold medallist and two-time world champ Conseslus Kipruto to the Kenyan Trials, with world U20 champion Amos Serem also on the entry list.

There's also Julius Yego, the Olympic javelin silver medallist, who is aiming at a fourth Olympics but is still in search of achieving the automatic qualification distance for Paris 2024 of 85.50m.

"For me, this Olympics I want to be a competitive Olympian, not just to appear," he told Olympics.com as he continued his preparations in Eldoret.

"I have appeared in the last three Olympics and I know what it feels to be an Olympic medallist after the silver, and if I can be 100% fit at the Olympics I want to get something and be on the podium."

Zablon Ekwam (400m) and Wiseman Were (400m hurdles) have both attained Paris qualifying marks and need to be the first across the line in their races to earn their Olympic berths. Athletics Kenya has invited sprinters from Botswana, Uganda, and South Sudan to help local sprinters attain the qualifying times in the relays.

Faith Kipyegon to open her season at the 2024 Kenyan Olympic Trials

It’s already June, and we have not seen one of the biggest names in the sport, Faith Kipyegon, competing this season. The double Olympic champion is listed in her speciality race, the women's 1500m, where she also holds the world record, one of three she set in the space of a month in 2023.

Kipyegon has not raced since the Prefontaine Classic in September where she claimed the 1500m Diamond Trophy capping off a stellar season. She set new world records in the 1500m, 5000m, and the Mile last year before her double triumph in the two longer distances at the 2023 World Championships.

“I have been performing for many, many years and getting gold medals and going to the Olympics…that’s why I want to work really hard and defend my title,” she told Olympics.com of her big target this year.

Kipyegon who had a slight muscle issue that forced her to pull out of the Diamond League in Eugene, is yet to decide whether to attempt a double in Paris by taking aim at a 5000m medal, where another recently crowned world record holder Beatrice Chebet will seek to secure another slot to the Games.

Chebet became the first woman to race the 10,000m under 29 minutes with her world record of 28:54.14 when she booked her spot at the Kenyan Olympic Trials held at the Prefontaine Classic in Eugene on 25 May.

World 800m champion Mary Moraa is another one listed in two events, her pet race and the 400m.

She holds the fastest times in both events and has been outstanding in the one-lap event this season.

Former world record holder Beatrice Chepkoech leads a deep entry list for the women's 3000m steeplechase that also includes the fast-rising world U20 champion Faith Cherotich.
