Nairobi | Kenya

If you’re feeling energized, Nairobi National Park offers the chance to see zebra, giraffe, lion, and even rhino
Amboseli National Park | Kenya
Marvel at large herds of elephants and impressive tuskers with stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro. Did you know that Kilimanjaro is the tallest free-standing mountain in the world?
Located in southern Kenya, Amboseli National Park is one of the country’s most popular safari destinations. Along with elephants, you may also see Masai giraffe, zebra, antelope, lions, and possibly cheetahs on the open plains.
Our recommended stay is Angama Amboseli. This stylish new lodge is a true marvel, offering privacy, comfort, and unforgettable views of Kilimanjaro.
Masai Mara National Park | Kenya
The Masai Mara is Kenya’s most iconic national park and a classic Big Five safari destination. With open grassy plains and year-round wildlife, it offers some of the best game viewing in Africa.
Scan the horizon for lion prides, cheetah coalitions, and large herds of elephant and buffalo. Wake before sunrise and float over the landscape on a hot air balloon safari. Enjoy a champagne breakfast in the bush.
The Great Wildebeest Migration typically arrives between August and October. This brings dramatic river crossings and thrilling predator action.
Serengeti National Park | Tanzania
The Great Wildebeest Migration is a year‑round cycle. Over 1.5 million wildebeest, 400 000 zebra, 300 000 Grant’s and Thomson’s gazelles, and 12 000 eland migrate in search of fresh grazing.
The best way to stay close to this spectacle is by choosing a luxury tented camp. These mobile safari camps relocate several times annually to follow the herds. They offer prime access to this iconic wildlife event, whatever time of year you travel.
Big cat sightings are excellent throughout the year. Lions rest on rocky outcrops, leopards hide in woodlands, and cheetahs race across the grasslands.
Zanzibar | Tanzania
Zanzibar is an island rich in history and culture. For centuries, it has attracted seafarers, traders, and merchants to its iconic shoreline. Set in the Indian Ocean, just off the coast of Tanzania, Zanzibar is an archipelago of islands, each offering something unique. It’s the perfect place to reflect and soak up your time in Africa.
Explore the bustling fish markets and winding alleys of Stone Town, or unwind on tranquil beaches and exclusive private islands. Zanzibar is where time slows down and island life takes over.
Relax on white-sand beaches. Snorkel or dive vibrant coral reefs. Cruise into the sunset on a traditional dhow.
