Where to go on safari holidays?

First up - Kenya. Here you can come face to face with lions, tigers, cheetahs and panthers. You can ride on an elephant instead of the metro. You can watch the sun set over savannah and listen to the sounds of wildebeasts at a waterhole. So perfect is the scene that the words ‘safari’ and Kenya are practically joined together. You’ll find world-famous parks like the Masai Mara National Reserve and can spot jagged peak of Mount Kilimanjaro in the background.

Choose Kenya for a river cruise where you can catch a glimpse of crocodiles, or hop in a 4x4 and venture into the Masai Mara for elephant spotting. But if you’d prefer to meet hyenas and spot some exotic and rare birdlife in one of several nature reserves, then Gambia is the place for you or take a trip to Tanzania to spot the Big Five, while enjoying the surroundings of a luxury resort.
