Apart from the fact that we’ll be seeing a huge variety of Africa’s iconic wildlife and birdlife in large numbers, the greatest thing about this trip is the opportunity to visit parts of Africa that few people get to visit. We'll be exploring some of the greatest wilderness areas in Africa including Mahale Mountains National Park, home to the highest population of chimpanzees anywhere.

- Stay in comfortable tented camps designed to blend harmoniously into the natural surroundings.
- Revel in a variety of activities from game drives and walking safaris to river and lake cruises, as well as hikes along forest trails.
- Photograph a variety of wildlife—lions, elephants, wild dogs, zebras, chimps, buffalo, and stately giraffes silhouetted by the setting sun.
- Enjoy excellent birding throughout with over 1,000 recorded species including African fish eagles, white-fronted bee-eaters, lilac-breasted rollers, Tanzanian red-billed hornbills, and yellow-collared lovebirds.
