About This Safari

The rarest combination in East African travel: mountain gorilla trekking in Uganda and Rwanda, combined with the complete Big Five safari experience in Kenya. Sixteen days that cover the entire emotional spectrum of African wildlife — from the intimate, heart-stopping hour with a silverback mountain gorilla in Bwindi's ancient forest, to the electric pace of a Maasai Mara lion hunt on open savanna. Along the way, chimpanzee trekking in Kibale, the spectacular Kazinga Channel boat safari at Queen Elizabeth, and Volcanoes NP's golden monkey trekking build a journey that most travellers take a lifetime to complete. Naisura delivers it in sixteen seamlessly organised days.
