This classic adventure is a luxury safari encompassing the ancient wilderness of northern Tanzania - from the river-fed wilds of Manyara to the sweeping grasslands of the Serengeti and the great natural wonder that is the Ngorongoro Crater.

Game parks, landscapes and culture. This safari gives a glimpse of East Africa’s enormously diverse scenery and some of its friendliest people. From the Great Rift Valley dotted with lakes, to the terraced hillsides of fertile Uganda, and a very special wildlife encounter - the opportunity to trek and view the magnificent gorillas in their fragile habitat is an unforgettable experience.

Durban to Johannesburg

Trip highlights include sugar cane plantations along the Indian Ocean, pelicans, flamingoes, hippos and crocodiles, pineapple plantations and beautiful mountainous scenery.

Uganda and Rwanda are blessed with stunningly beautiful and varied landscapes, from the tropical splendour of the central Ugandan plateau to the volcanic Virunga mountains of Rwanda. Adding to this is a dramatic array of lakes and rivers together with one of the highest concentrations of rare primates in the world (gorillas, colobus monkeys and chimpanzees). Thus Uganda and Rwanda are the perfect foil to Kenya and Tanzania's big game attractions.

The gorillas inhabit the thick forests of the Virunga mountains which straddle the border between Uganda and Rwanda. Access to these mountains from Kigali is less than 2 hours drive. Gorilla tracking permits are in short supply and therfore booking well ahead is essential.

Safari from Africa’s premier attraction, Victoria Falls to its most beautiful city – Cape Town. Explore the world’s oldest desert, the Namib-Naukluft, the tranquil wilderness of the Okavango Delta, the dramatic Fish River Canyon, and two prime game parks – Etosha and Chobe. A superb introduction to Southern Africa!
