About this trip

This is a 13-day overland run through Kenya and Tanzania, ending with beach time in Zanzibar. You cover a lot of ground in a purpose-built truck, moving between national parks, remote villages and market towns with a small group.

Expect jeep and 4WD safaris in the Maasai Mara, the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, a night staying in a Maasai village, and stretches of proper bush camping with no fences between you and the wildlife. The pace is real overland travel — early starts, long drives, and camaraderie built along the way.

The trip closes with two days on Zanzibar's beaches. This part is unescorted — your flight there is included but there's no leader or planned activities, just local reps on hand if you need them.
