FIRST-CLASS | SMALL GROUP: Embark on an 11-day soul-stirring journey through Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. Witness nature's grandeur and discover countless wildlife wonders, including elephants, wildebeest, zebras, giraffes, gazelles, lions, cheetahs, impala, hippos, and more, as you weave through some of East Africa's best national parks.


Begin your 11-day East Africa group vacation in Nairobi, Kenya’s vibrant capital city. Venture south to the UNESCO-listed Amboseli National Park for your first of many game drives. Keep your eyes peeled for incredible free-range elephants framed by the grand Mount Kilimanjaro in the background. Marvel at the snowy peaks atop Africa’s highest mountain and the world’s highest mountain above sea level as you search for wild lions, leopards, buffalo, cheetahs, and more. Meet locals at a nearby Masai village and learn about their culture and way of life as you share stories and a meal.

Traverse the beautiful Great Rift Valley to Lake Naivasha, stopping at the elegant Enashipai Resort for lunch. Embark on a scenic afternoon boat safari across the lake, sailing by hippos, cormorants, and pelicans as you search for herds of zebra and antelope grazing along the shore. Return to the Great Rift Valley en route to the world-famous Masai Mara National Reserve in the southeastern corner of Kenya. Discover the world’s greatest concentration of large mammals living along the iconic Great Wildebeest Migration path, including more lions, cheetahs, and more fierce predators. Take advantage of the optional hot-air balloon ride with a champagne-style breakfast before flying to the expansive Serengeti National Park in Tanzania.

Enjoy a full-day discovery of the spectacular local wildlife spread across the unrivalled beauty of the Serengeti. You’ll quickly discover why Serengeti National Park is one of Africa’s best game-viewing areas as you witness potentially hundreds of thousands of zebras, buffalo, elephants, giraffes, impala, gazelle, wildebeest, and other iconic plains game. Venture south to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area for one of the world’s best safari experiences. Discover the over 850 species -300 animals and 550 birds- and several different ecosystems within the world’s largest unbroken caldera.
