ABOUT THIS SAFARI
About This Kenya Tanzania Luxury Safari
This Kenya Tanzania luxury safari follows the full length of the Mara-Serengeti ecosystem in comfort. The Kenyan half covers Amboseli, Lake Naivasha and two nights in the Masai Mara. You then cross into Tanzania at Isebania and continue straight into the northern Serengeti, so there is no need to fly back to Nairobi.
In Tanzania you spend two nights in the Serengeti, a morning on the floor of the Ngorongoro Crater, and a day each at Lake Manyara and Tarangire, famous for its baobabs and dry season elephant herds. The trip ends with a drive to the Namanga border and back to Nairobi.
Accommodation is in the best lodge in each area, typically Serena, Sarova and Melia properties or similar, with a private 4×4 and guide throughout. It is the most complete single trip we run across the two countries.
