Description of Serengeti Trail, Kenya & Tanzania safari

This week-long Serengeti, Tanzania and Kenya safari tour places travellers in the heart of East Africa, where savannah plains stretch as far as the eye can see and wildlife is free to roam.

The Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti and Lake Victoria form inevitable highlights on this overland round trip from Nairobi. Dik-diks, giraffes, wildebeest, lions and elephants can all be found if you know where to look. As you’ll be camping and enjoying several guided safari drives, you’ll have every chance of encountering a number of East African animals.

Experience the very best of the Serengeti, Tanzania and Kenya on a safari tour that combines wildlife, culture and adventure, placing you amongst the cities, markets, coffee plantations and wildlife hotspots of East Africa.

Holiday information

Small group budget tour, ideal for solos or couples:
This is one of our budget trips, designed specifically for travellers who still want the security of group travel without lots of added inclusions. These trips don't have many included activities & meals are rarely included in the price, giving you the opportunity to search out local restaurants and sample regional specialities to your heart's content. The amount of free time in these itineraries means that these trips often appeal to younger travellers looking to explore independently and tailor the trip to your own interests. You often won't spend too many days in any one place and you'll pack lots of different locations into your holiday.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?


The lions and leopards in the Serengeti and watching eagles fishing over Lake Victoria.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?


Expect long drives on bumpy and dusty roads. It’s worth it to get to the Serengeti, but painful at the time. The tour may have over 20 people which makes taking photos on game drives difficult when you’re on the tour operator's truck. Remember you are joining an existing trip so those already on the tour may have formed a clique so may not be welcoming of new travellers.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?


To some extent. We were given cotton shopping bags and provided with drinking water so we could reduce single use plastic bottles.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?


OK. Great wildlife, if you go at the right time of year.

Responsible Travel

As the pioneers of responsible tourism, we've screened this (and every) holiday so that you can travel knowing we've worked to maximise the benefits of your holiday to local people and places, and minimise any negative impacts.

Planet

As a company we aim to contribute to the environmental preservation of the destinations we visit and to reduce any negative impacts our operations may have. This translates to actions such as using local transport where safe to do so in order to reduce emissions, observing all national and marine park visitor rules and operating a ‘take in, take back out’ waste management system, to name but a few examples. Through our inhouse foundation we also invest money into environmental initiatives that benefit the planet, including restoring kelp forests to help reverse the effects of global warming and protecting endangered species such as sea turtles and elephants.

People

We believe strongly in low impact tourism and so during this trip we use existing locally owned facilities and camp ground such as the one used in Kisi on the first night. By using locally owned and run facilities we are helping the local communities that we visit.

You will have an opportunity to shop for local sculptures and textiles at a bustling Musoma market during this trip, there is an optional boat ride on Lake Victoria and a trip to the small island where sardine farming is the main industry. The time we spend here will again benefit the local community.
