optional 4 day extension to Tanzania |

Attention
adventurers, the elephants are calling! For 4
years our clients have waited for us to repeat
this trip and it will sell out quickly. Safari
is the Swahili word for journey, and what an
amazing one it is to one of the most precious
nature reserves on earth. The glories of Kenya
have inspired travelers for centuries. It is
“nature’s museum” teeming with wildlife but it’s
also the people with overwhelming hospitality
where one discovers the soul of Africa.
We do trips to other countries on this
continent, but Kenya is called “the Pearl of
Africa.”
