Strong on multi-country routing, timing, and keeping Kenya-Tanzania transitions clean so the itinerary feels joined up instead of stitched together.

Michelle Mugure

Luxury fly-in safaris, Samburu, and lodge matching

Frequently Asked Questions

Bring layered clothing in neutral colours, a warm jacket for early mornings and Ngorongoro Crater rim (it can be chilly), comfortable walking shoes, sunscreen, insect repellent, binoculars, and a camera. A dust-proof bag is useful in the dry season.

Most visitors need a tourist visa, which can be obtained as an e-visa online or on arrival. The cost is typically $50 USD. We recommend applying for the e-visa in advance to avoid queues at the airport.

Park fees are included in all our tour prices. For reference, Serengeti entrance fees are approximately $70–82 per person per day, and Ngorongoro Crater fees are $70 per person plus a $295 vehicle fee. Our all-inclusive pricing means no surprise costs.

Absolutely! A safari-and-beach combo is one of our most popular itineraries. After your safari, a short flight takes you to Zanzibar for pristine beaches, spice tours, and Stone Town exploration. We recommend adding 3–4 days for a proper beach break.

A good level of general fitness is important — regular cardio like hiking, jogging, or cycling for 3–6 months before your trip is recommended. Prior high-altitude experience is helpful but not essential. Our guides manage a gradual pace to help acclimatisation.

Altitude sickness can affect anyone regardless of fitness. Our itineraries include acclimatisation days, and our guides are trained to monitor symptoms. We follow "climb high, sleep low" principles and carry emergency oxygen. Most trekkers acclimatise well with proper pacing.

This tour includes: Mount Kenya trekking according to the itinerary Professional, English-speaking Wilderness First Responder & CPR certified Guide, Proper Ration of Mountain crew (Cook & Porters) Pre and Post accommodations (2 nights Bed and Breakfast) Airport Transfers Meals according to the itinerary, Drinking water and Full Board meals, All National Park & Camping Fees, Crew Permits and VAT, Rescue Fees and Emergency Evacuation Coverage with AMREF, Fair and Sustainable Salary Crew Wages. For a complete breakdown of inclusions and exclusions, see the tour details above or contact our team for a detailed proposal.

A 8-day safari lets you explore multiple parks and ecosystems without rushing. You'll have time for off-the-beaten-path experiences, cultural interactions, and repeated game drives that increase your chances of rare sightings. It's the most immersive way to experience Africa.

Absolutely! Every safari can be tailored to your preferences. You can add or remove days, upgrade accommodation, include special experiences like hot air balloon rides, or combine with beach holidays. Contact us with your wishes and we'll create your perfect trip.

Our mid-range safaris feature comfortable 3–4 star lodges and tented camps with en-suite bathrooms, hot water, and electricity. Meals are included (full board) with a mix of buffet and à la carte dining. It's the sweet spot between comfort and value.
