Welcome to Kenya, safari capital of the world. Bring binoculars because the first stop is lovely Lake Nakuru, famous for its fuchsia fringe of flamingos as well as leopards, white rhinos and a whole host of smaller animals. In Uganda, uncover the source of the Nile or put smiles of the faces of local kids, volunteering at the Soft Power Education Centre. | | Days 8-14 | Gorilla Trek/Nairobi | Take on the steep, densely forested slopes of Uganda's seemingly impenetrable jungles in search of a squat silverback and his sociable mates. Any fatigue felt will magically disappear as soon as you spot magnificent, liquid-eyed gorillas cavorting beneath the tree canopy. | | Days 15-23 | Masai Mara/Arusha/Serengeti/Ngorongoro Crater | The safari continues in the world-class Masai Mara and Serengeti National Parks, staging grounds for the spectacular annual wildebeest migration. Visit a Masai village for an African cultural experience or check out venomous serpents at Arusha's Snake Park. The enormous Ngorongoro is the great cat capital of Africa and encounters with lions, leopards and cheetahs are highly prized experiences. | | Days 24-28 | Dar es Salaam/Zanzibar | Picture-perfect Zanzibar has it all: an evocative Old Town, iridescent ocean, paradise beaches and a spicy history to boot. Spend time here browsing Oriental-style bazaars, dazzling the senses on a spice tour or simply soaking up the sun on soft white sands. | | Days 29-39 | Mikumi National Park/Lake Malawi/Lusaka/Livingstone/Victoria Falls | Enter the warm heart of Africa - Malawi - where wide smiles, wonderful scenery and water sports are aplenty. Across the border in Zambia, zoom in on the impressive Victoria Falls or get some action in Livingstone, the adrenaline capital of Africa. | | Days 40-46 | Botswana/Chobe/Kruger National Park/Johannesburg | Cruise along the Chobe for a chance to spot majestic African fish-eagles or maybe even elephants coming down to the river to drink. The 24,000 sq km of the Kruger is a fitting final destination for this fantastic safari adventure, hopefully offering one last glimpse of the Big Five. The journey ends in modern Johannesburg. |
