The 6000 mile Rift Valley is spectacular. With fertile farmland and uninhabitable desert, flat plains and steep escarpments, the variety of striking landscapes is surpassed only by the millions of birds that flock to the valley’s lakes. A Rift Valley holiday is paradise for adventure sport enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.

There's so much in terms of both variety and number of experiences, it's hard to capture one moment. Dolphins, elephants, stampeding water buffalo, oh and the wonderful stars at night, and the warm, smiling people. It was all unforgetable.

Another magical site would be on the first dawn game drive we did and managed to see a pride of lions basking in the morning light, a cheetah prowling the plains and then the elusive leopard lazing halfway up a tree!

When we descended into the rift valley, we came across a family of nine Giraffes. I had not been to Africa before, and this was the moment that it sunk in what I was about to experience.

There were so many memorable moments it's hard to choose one. But seeing a leopard in a tree with its kill was right up there... Trip of a lifetime - fantastic.
