Breathtaking Kenyan safari and the endangered Mountain Gorillas

Zebra in sunrise, Masai Mara

We start with a journey through the Great Rift Valley to Lake Naivasha and the prolific Masai Mara for an exceptional two days of game viewing. Our next stop is Lake Nakuru, home to an incredible variety of birds and wildlife including the endangered white and black rhinos, elusive leopard and in season, a million flamingos. Crossing into Uganda, there is the option of an exhilarating day's rafting on the Nile at Jinja and a visit to see chimpanzees on Ngamba Island before heading into Rwanda for the highlight of the trip - the opportunity to see the gorillas. This close-up encounter is arguably the most sensational wildlife experience of them all and is a wonderful end to a remarkable trip.
