Enjoyed safari package. Tour guides were knowledgeable, which enabled us to view the Big 5 animals and much more, very quickly. Great food, accomodations, coordination, safety and security. Unforgetable adventures throughout the tour. Were not able to see the Serengeti because of the election. Enjoyed meeting and interacting with the World Adventure Tours staff and other safari travlers. Appreciated the beaches and activities in Zanzibar. Would like to see Mt Kilimanjaro National Park on my next trip.

Our tour was absolutely fantastic! Many thanks to our wonderful travel manager Nancy, who managed to take into account our vision of what this tour should look like. She was with us every step of the way, we could count on her 24/7 in case of any emergencies or unresolved questions. Our tour included such amazing spots as Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli Park, which we travelled to with our amazing drive guide Kaka! (He's an absolute best!) The way Nancy came up with the curriculum of the trip it was quite easy to follow the schedule from day to day, and we managed to see the BIG FIVE and SO MUCH MORE! I am forever grateful for her talent, skills, hospitality and overall generosity which made this journey unforgettable!

What our customers ask about Kenya & Tanzania Safari Tours
What are the best times of year to visit Kenya and Tanzania for wildlife viewing?
The prime seasons for wildlife viewing fall between July and October when the Great Migration brings millions of wildebeest moving between Serengeti and Masai Mara. Clear viewing conditions exist during the dry seasons (June-October and January-February) as animals congregate near water sources. Many travelers have found success during these periods. A TourRadar traveler notes "During July/August the annual Migration of Wildebeest takes place - this is the right time to spend extra days in the Mara to witness this spectacular event."
What wildlife can I expect to see on a Kenya and Tanzania safari?
The parks feature the "Big Five" (lion leopard elephant rhino buffalo) along with large groups of wildebeest zebras and gazelles. Both regions support diverse ecosystems with hippos giraffes and hundreds of bird species. The Serengeti and Masai Mara have earned their reputation for frequent big cat encounters. A TourRadar traveler shared: "We saw all the Big 5 animals during our safari. The Mara hosts Kenya's largest lion prides and elephant herds. The concentration of game within the Reserve almost guarantees that you will see 4 of the big five on your first game drive!"
What are the key differences between visiting Kenya versus Tanzania for safari?
Kenya's Masai Mara offers accessible savanna landscapes and frequent big cat sightings while Tanzania's Serengeti provides vast open spaces and the unique enclosed ecosystem of Ngorongoro Crater. According to TourRadar travelers: "Tanzania's Serengeti felt more remote with fewer vehicles while Kenya's Masai Mara had excellent infrastructure and frequent wildlife sightings." Kenya's Lake Nakuru specializes in rhino viewing while Tanzania's crater environment ensures reliable animal encounters.
What are some unique cultural experiences available during a Kenya and Tanzania safari?
The safari routes include stops at traditional Maasai communities local markets and heritage centers. One TourRadar traveler shared: "Visiting a Maasai village near Masai Mara was fascinating - we learned about their traditions saw traditional dances and got to buy beautiful handmade jewelry." Travelers can meet Samburu people in Kenya explore Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania and stay at culturally-inspired properties like Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge.
How do the different types of safari accommodations compare in Kenya and Tanzania?
Accommodations range from high-end lodges to authentic tented camps. Properties like Serena Sweetwaters Camp offer modern amenities including swimming pools and climate control. Canvas accommodations such as Mara Zebra Plains connect guests with nature through their open design. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "The lodges were wonderful with the best meals and views. We could see elephants and zebras right from our tent at Serengeti Heritage Lodge." Mid-tier options like Lake Nakuru Lodge balance comfort with safari authenticity.
How much does a Kenya and Tanzania safari typically cost?
Daily rates run between USD 350-1000 per person based on accommodation choices and planned activities. Most 10-14 day combination safaris across both countries range from USD 4000-8000 including meals lodging at properties like Serengeti Safari Lodge game drives and entry fees. A TourRadar traveler noted: "Though not cheap the experience and service at luxury lodges like Serena hotels were worth every penny." Private tours and extended stays tend to command higher prices.
