AFRICA • TANZANIA, KENYA & UGANDA<br />
Discover Tanzania, Kenya & Uganda<br />
Tanzania’s vibrant landscapes are a<br />
photographer’s dream, from snow-capped<br />
Kilimanjaro to exotic Zanzibar, via the<br />
plains of the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro<br />
Crater. Visitors can witness dramatic<br />
wildlife spectacles such as the annual Great<br />
Migration. Neighbouring Kenya is home to<br />
wide-open spaces, impressive mountain<br />
ranges, deep lakes and golden beaches.<br />
Here, too, are the fascinating pastoralist<br />
cultures of the Maasai and Samburu. This<br />
is the birthplace of safari, and the country’s<br />
23 national parks offer exceptional wildlife<br />
viewing. To the north lies biodiversity haven<br />
Uganda, home to chimpanzees, some 1,000<br />
species of bird and over half of the world’s<br />
mountain gorilla population.<br />

Ngorongoro Crater<br />
The national parks of Tarangire, Lake Manyara,<br />
Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti form the<br />
Northern Safari Circuit, one of Africa’s most<br />
impressive wildlife areas. Tarangire particularly<br />
comes to life in the dry season, when its central<br />
river becomes a magnet to large animals,<br />
including elephants. Lake Manyara contains a<br />
beautiful soda lake and an exceptional variety<br />
of wildlife, including elusive tree-climbing<br />
lions. The vast Ngorongoro Crater is home to<br />
one of the world’s greatest concentrations of<br />
wildlife and presents dramatic views from its<br />
vertiginous rim. The Serengeti is known for<br />
its expansive savanna, perennially excellent<br />
wildlife and the great wildebeest migration.<br />
Laikipia is a beautiful region that stretches<br />
from the foothills of Mount Kenya to the<br />
shoreline of Lake Baringo. The area covers a<br />
wide range of landscapes and has become<br />
a sanctuary for elephants, lions, leopards,<br />
buffaloes and a wealth of plains wildlife.<br />
The safari lodges in Laikipia are among the<br />
most opulent in Kenya, and the involvement<br />
of local Samburu and Maasai communities<br />
allows visitors a rare opportunity to meet local<br />
people. The large conservancy of Lewa and<br />
Ol Pejeta is excellent for those interested in<br />
wildlife conservation and learning about the<br />
vital work the communities do to protect their<br />
environment.<br />
