A journey from crater to crater, across lion country and into the green highlands of gorilla land
This isn’t just a safari. It’s a passage across Africa’s greatest wildlife zones — from Tanzania’s volcanic plains to Kenya’s rolling savannahs and into Uganda’s emerald mountains. Along the way, you’ll watch lions in the Mara, rhinos in Nakuru, elephants along the Kazinga Channel, and mountain gorillas deep in Bwindi.
You start wide. You end close. The experience keeps narrowing — until it’s just you and a silverback sharing the same forest air.
Arrive in Arusha and settle in beneath the slopes of Mount Meru. You’ll be picked up from the airport and transferred to your lodge to rest from the journey. Depending on your time of arrival, you may embark on Arusha city tour to explore nearby attractions.
