We use our purpose-built overland vehicles for the duration of this trip. It is important to note that while our vehicles are not air-conditioned, all windows do open to allow for fresh air. But please be aware that road travel in Africa comes with its fair share of dust, so while curtains are fitted to minimize the sun shine, it can get hot and windy.
This itinerary features some long travel days which can be exacerbated by bumpy African roads. It is recommended that you pay close attention to our given approximations of distance and driving hours.
Our overland safaris do not necessitate exceptional fitness levels, but a general level of physical movement is required. For example, you need to judge yourself physically fit enough to handle.
Some passengers on this trip may have been travelling together prior to the start of your trip. To see what you're missing out on check out our Kenya & Tanzania Safari Under Canvas trip.
As the early bird catches the worm, the early camper sights the animals. There will be many early starts either to make use of the better safari time or to beat the morning traffic on long travel days.

Glamping in the Serengeti (and hearing roars throughout the night) watching the wildebeest crossing and hot air ballooning over the migration. My heart is full.

This trip was very enjoyable. It was so exciting to see Leopards, prides of lions, black rhinos & so many other animals. I also feel that our trip leader Benson & driver James also contributed a lot to the overall experience with their enthusiasm & their enjoyment in their interactions with the group
