What our customers ask about Kenya and South Africa Tours & Trips
What types of accommodation can I expect on a Kenya and South Africa tour?
The accommodations across Kenya and South Africa span from high-end lodges to authentic tented camps. In South Africa the Belmond Mount Nelson Hotel in Cape Town provides classic luxury while Mdluli Safari Lodge in Kruger National Park offers modern comforts with bush views from infinity pools. Kenya's options include the intimate tented suites at Zebra River Camp in Masai Mara and well-appointed lodges near Lake Nakuru. A TourRadar traveler noted "The accommodations were outstanding - from our colonial-style hotel at Victoria Falls to the luxury tented camp in Masai Mara with stunning views of the plains."
What are the best times to visit Kenya and South Africa for wildlife viewing?
The prime wildlife viewing in Kenya happens during dry seasons from June to October and January to February. Animals cluster around water sources in Masai Mara and Amboseli National Park during these periods. South Africa's winter months from May to September offer excellent game viewing in Kruger National Park when less vegetation makes wildlife easier to spot. As one TourRadar traveler mentioned "The game viewing in Kruger was incredible - we saw all the Big Five within our first two game drives at Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge."
What wildlife can I expect to see in Kenya and South Africa?
The Big Five (lion leopard elephant rhino buffalo) roam freely in both countries along with numerous other species. Kenya's Masai Mara hosts the Great Migration where millions of wildebeest and zebras traverse the plains. Amboseli is known for elephant herds against Mount Kilimanjaro's silhouette. Kruger National Park houses one of Africa's densest leopard populations especially along the Sabie River. A TourRadar traveler noted "The wildlife viewing exceeded expectations - from huge herds of elephants in Amboseli to watching lions hunt in the Masai Mara."
What cultural experiences are available in Kenya and South Africa?
Visitors can engage with traditional Maasai communities in Kenya learning about daily customs and watching ceremonial dances. South Africa offers tours through Cape Town's colorful Bo-Kaap neighborhood visits to the historic Robben Island and wine tasting experiences in Stellenbosch. A TourRadar traveler shared "The visit to a Maasai Manyatta village was incredibly enlightening - we learned so much about their traditions and way of life."
What are the transportation options between major destinations?
Travel combines light aircraft flights between key locations with 4x4 vehicles for safari drives. Regular flights connect major cities like Cape Town to Johannesburg and Nairobi to Masai Mara. Purpose-built safari vehicles featuring pop-up roofs ensure comfortable game viewing in parks. According to a TourRadar traveler "The combination of flights and specialized safari vehicles made covering large distances comfortable while maximizing our time viewing wildlife."
What is the quality of food and dining options available?
The dining scene ranges from sophisticated restaurants to authentic local eateries. Luxury safari lodges serve both regional specialties and international dishes. Cape Town's V&A Waterfront offers varied dining while Kenyan lodges arrange memorable bush dinners. A TourRadar traveler shared "The food at our Masai Mara lodge was exceptional - fresh ingredients and great variety even catering to special dietary requirements."
