  • Gorillas, Safari & Beach

Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda followed by safari & beach in Kenya.

A quality itinerary which takes you to Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda in search of Mountain Gorillas, before heading on to Kenya for an authentic under canvas safari in the open plains of the Masai Mara.  Finish in style on the Diani coast with a dip in the Indian Ocean.

This trip is very cool and includes some of our favourite boutique hotels and lodges alongside optimum logistics. If you want even more, an extra gorilla trek or hot air balloon ride can be easily added to the itinerary.

Alternative beach destinations would include Zanzibar (quintessential tropical beaches), Mauritius (great for larger all inclusive style resorts), or the Seychelles (good for active stays and island hopping).

Itinerary Highlights

Gorilla Trekking

Search habituated groups of gorillas, still criticially endangered, living amongst the mountain mist, and enjoy your dwell time with these amazing primates.

The Stunning Beaches of Zanzibar

There’s nowhere quite like it for the stunning white-white fine sand and turqoise warm sea. Have fun swimming or just chilling on the beach and watching the dhows sail by.

Snorkelling/Diving

Immerse yourself in beautiful waters either beach side or off a boat. There are plenty of places to hire, dip and dive nearby.

Your own Private Safari

Your safari experience will be as personal as possible with a guide tailored to your party. You will be in a specially crafted safari landrover/landcruiser with pop up roof or open sides for optimum game viewing.

Off the Beaten Track

Avoid the crowds and optimise your safari by choosing smaller camps away from mass tourism with top guiding and abundant wildlife.

Witness the Great Migration

Possibly the greatest show on earth with the movement of up to a million wildebeest and zebra within the Serengeti/Masai Mara ecosystem, following the same pattern each year in search of fresh grasses.

Wide open Plains of Masai Mara

Kenya’s most famous national park with abundant game year round, this is where the action happens. Enjoy the beauty of the far reaching views combined with hidden kopjes and river ways between.

Track the Big Cats

Spotting any of the big cats whether it be lion, cheetah or leopard is one of the most thrilling aspects of a safari holiday. Tracking them as they hunt adds to the excitement and appreciation of their disposition.

Walking Safari

Up close and personal as you step into the wild and feel more active and amongst it. Track footprints and add the ‘small five’ to your tick list.

Gorilla Trekking

Search habituated groups of gorillas, still criticially endangered, living amongst the mountain mist, and enjoy your dwell time with these amazing primates.

Read our testimonials

Thank you so much for all the effort you put into planning and arranging our itinerary – everything went smoothly and everyone we dealt with in Africa was delightful, thanks to you. It was a magical trip and far exceeded all my expectations – I could have stayed at Ol Seki forever.

Masai Mara, Kenya & Zanzibar, October 2019

We had a fantastic time – by breaking the holiday into plenty of different stages, it felt more like a month’s holiday, rather than just 2 weeks. Lewa Safari Camp was very luxurious and comfortable.
