For travelers’ seeking to experience the best that an East African safari has to offer, we have the perfect solution. Our combined Kenya-Tanzania safari allows you to take in the richness of Kenya’s wildlife, without missing out on all that Tanzania’s wildlife has to offer. Blending both destinations into a single Kenya-Tanzania safari combination ensures that you get the best of both worlds.

That’s because on the one hand you get to visit such pristine destinations as Nakuru, Kenya’s Lake Nakuru National Park, as well as travelling to Kenya’s world renowned Masai Mara. This allows you to get so close to the wildebeest migration that you’ll feel as if you were part of the unfolding drama.

Not to be outdone, Tanzania offers several of its own awe inspiring spectacles. These would include destinations such as the Ngorongoro Crater. This area is believed to lay claim to Africa’s most dense lion population. Likewise, another must-see Tanzanian safari destination the Lake Manyara National Park.

This park is known for its tree-climbing lions that have developed a habit of sleeping and even spying on their predators from the trees.

All of these factors combine to make our combined Kenya and Tanzania tour package, the ideal package for anyone having difficulty deciding between a Kenyan or a Tanzanian safari. And as conscientious tour operators, this is something that we always keep in mind.

That’s why we’ve made sure that our travel itinerary is as practical as it is adventurous – making the best use of modern tourism logistics, so that our customers’ never have to worry about the details.

So to summarize, our Kenya-Tanzania safari includes all of the destinations that you get with our Great Migration Tour Package, but you also get two Tanzanian safari destinations:

The Ngorongoro Crater – This conservation area was created many millennia ago when the volcano collapsed upon itself, after a major eruption. The result is the beautiful expanse of land that we now know as the Ngorongoro Crater which is said to have the world’s densest lion population.

Lake Manyara National Park – Nestled between Arusha, Tanzania and the Ngorongoro Crater is Lake Manyara National Park. One of the things that makes this park unique is its relaxed scenic beauty. It also boasts the world’s only known prides of tree-climbing lions.
