Kenya and Tanzania offer a breathtaking array of wildlife. But 14 days travelling these two countries gives you the chance to really discover the bold contrasts of east Africa.
Your safari club accommodation offers the splendors of the colonial era with every modern convenience, along with golf, wonderful views and immaculate gardens.

Vast flocks of flamingos descend on Lake Nakuru, along with warthogs, baboons and other impressive mammals. Try and spot some of the park’s introduced black and white rhinos. Leopard sightings have also increased in recent years.
The vast plains of the Serengeti cross the border into Kenya, becoming Masai Mara. This game reserve is famous for its large population of big cats and the colorful culture of the Masai people. This is one of the best-preserved parts of Kenya, where life has changed little in over a century. Your luxury accommodation overlooks the Mara River, with game drives timed to maximize your wildlife spotting chances.
The world’s most famous wildlife sanctuary, Serengeti National Park is the crown jewel of Tanzania, where you can witness the annual migration of over a million wildebeest and 250,000 zebras. On morning and afternoon game drives, seek out the Big 5 (more than 3,000 lions and 1,000 leopards call the Serengeti home), cheetahs, hyenas, baboon, African wild dogs and giraffes. Bird watchers should also keep their eyes peeled for over 500 species that inhabit the plains.
Your last stop is the world’s largest open, inactive volcanic crater. Ngorongoro is one of Africa’s finest wildlife conservation areas and home to over 25,000 large animals including lions, zebra, wildebeest and gazelles. It is also one of your best opportunities to see black rhinos, the rarest of the Big 5
