Planning an East African safari, sometimes it helps to have someone do the hard work for you. I do careful selection of the best African safaris, tours and itinerary rated most popular by both my clients and Safari Experts. My travel clients have continued to like the places we have explored and they always come back.


Iconic destinations in Kenya-Uganda-Tanzania-Rwanda and Zanzibar- feature highly on these itineraries but so do off-the-beaten-path destinations in tucked-away beaches and rivers that make up East Africa water body.
Below are the categories that I base my safaris.
