Africa Overland Tour Description |
 This tour starts in the Capital city of Nairobi. This bustling city enjoys a year round pleasant climate due to its location. Be enthralled by the soda lake of Lake Nakuru after which we head to the Masai Mara.. The National Parks and reserves of northern Tanzania need little introduction to wildlife enthusiasts.
The vast Serengeti National Park is arguably the finest reserve on the continent, home to millions of plains animals and a profusion of predators. The annual migration of millions of wildebeest and zebra which takes place in mid May/June is one of the largest single movements of animals anywhere on earth. The Ngorongoro Crater is the largest intact volcanic caldera in the world. Stretching for 50km along the base of the rusty-gold 600-metre high Rift Valley escarpment, Lake Manyara is a scenic gem. Kilimanjaro is not only the highest peak on the African continent, but it is also the tallest free-standing mountain in the world, rising in breathtaking isolation from the surrounding coastal scrubland to 5,895 metres (19,336 feet). The adventure ends in Dar es Salaam. |
