Design Your ItinerarySafari destinations — good to know
- Is it safe to go on safari in Kenya and Tanzania?
- Yes — the parks are among the most reassuring places you'll travel, well away from the few regions governments advise against, and we plan each route around that. You're with an experienced guide in a 4×4, staying at established camps. The usual city-sense applies in Nairobi, and we plan routes that stay clear of the areas your government advises against — check your own foreign-office advice before you travel, and we'll talk you through anything on it.
- Are these safaris suitable for families with children?
- Yes, and one of the best trips a family can take together. We set the pace for younger travellers, choose lodges that welcome children, and keep drives the right length. Some activities have minimum ages — gorilla trekking in Rwanda is 15 and over — so tell us your children's ages and we'll build around everyone.
- What is a typical day on safari like?
- An early game drive in the golden light, a relaxed midday break through the heat, and an afternoon drive into the evening. On the fly-in safaris the drives run to a set schedule from camp, shared with a few other guests; on the road-based journeys, and on any trip where you add a private vehicle, the pace of the day is yours.
