About this trip
This 11-day safari links Kenya and Tanzania, moving through both countries in a small group of no more than seven people per vehicle so everyone gets a window seat for spotting wildlife.
Expect long days on the road between parks and reserves, with the landscape changing from open savannah to highland scenery as you cross the border.
It is built around game drives and Big Five sightings, with some contact with local cultures along the way.
What you'll do
- Game drives across Kenya and Tanzania tracking the Big Five
- Small 4WD groups of 2 to 7 travellers with a guaranteed window seat
- Cross-border route taking in varied landscapes between the two countries
- Stops to meet local communities along the way
- Small vehicle groups (max 7) mean better sightlines for wildlife and photos
- A two-country combination trip, so budget time for border crossings and transfer days

- Guides Emmanuel and drivers were exceptionally professional; pre-trip comms from HDS team remained timely and informative throughout.
- Five national parks across Kenya and Tanzania, high-quality lodges, excellent meals, and itinerary genuinely optimised for wildlife photography.
- Bring substantial phone storage or extra memory cards; reviewers emphasise taking as many photos as possible.
- Tour felt seamless and problem-free from arrival onwards; travel agent described it as one of her best trips ever.
