If you have that one goal, one passion for sighting wildlife, then Africa is a beautiful arena of culturally rich wildlife, people, and their culture, worth experiencing in your lifetime. Kenya and Tanzania fit well as the center of African adventure due to their abundant Fauna and thrilling scenery.

 

More often than not, many travelers raise unique objectives for their safari. They include, but are not all, wildlife, Adventure, Honeymoons, Holidays, Photography, and the list is extensive. Incidentally - all these goals can be conveniently met within Kenya and Tanzania. 

 

However, we decided to focus on listing the top places to visit throughout these countries, which are included in our ten-day classic tour for this coveted vacation destination.

 

The museum takes its name from its Danish owner, Karen Blixen, and stands as a marvelous reflection of what Kenya was like many years ago.

 

Where the Karen Blixen Museum is now based, a farm owned by a Danish author, Karen, and her husband once stood. A couple of reasons generated Karen Blixen's fame;

- The release of Karen's autobiography and the eventual film titled Out of Africa  

- Was a donation by the Danish government to the Kenyan government as an independence gift.

 

It is a delight for historians fond of the past. They can tour both the rooms and the grounds, which bear witness to the property's history. All the original equipment from Karen's coffee farm is on display.

 

A few Kilometres from here, you find the Giraffe Centre. This is an established environmental conservation home to the endangered Rothschild's Giraffe.

 

Faced with extinction, the sanctuary has played a significant role in conserving Rothschild's Giraffe subspecies through breeding grounds and public education. One spectacular activity during your visit is to feed these long-necked animals from your hands while learning about the organization's ongoing conservation efforts.

 

The waters here are often colored sparkling flamingo pink from thousands of the attractive birds lining its shores. However, it's worth knowing that this hue is not from the shadow of flamingos gathering in its space but by the water coloration from seasonal changes and continual algae growth.

 

This scenic Phenomenon pairs well with a game drive through the Soysambu Conservancy, home to 15,000 wild animals and green plains stretching thousands of acres.

 

Maasai Mara National Reserve is Kenya's flagship park in the country's southwestern part. It is globally renowned for its exceptional wildlife Phenomenon, the great wildebeest migration. None others like it around the whole globe.

 

Maasai Mara National Reserve is a haven for a vast flora and Fauna. It's the most successfully visited destination in the world, showcasing all the Big 5. The incredible 8th wonder of the world, The Wildebeest Migration, thrills your sight to an unforgettable memory of stampede and survival as wildebeest compete to cross the crocodile-infested Mara River.

 

Up close and personal is often the preferred viewing point for these vast savannahs. However, our tour offers an optional hot air balloon safari to gain a new perspective. This incomparable experience provides an aerial view of the wildlife as they embark on their daily morning escapades through the vast grasslands.

 

Amboseli National Park is in south Kenya, northwest of Mountain Kilimanjaro, on the Kenya/Tanzania borders.

The word Amboseli comes from the Maasai language, meaning "Salty dust'. A safari to Kenya is incomplete without the Amboseli. This is the most popular animal park after the Mara.

 

The park has varied wildlife, from giraffes, cheetahs, and zebras to hundreds of bird species, and its large herd of elephants is one of the best places in the world where you can carry out elephant research plus other documentaries.

 

Part of its charms is that the park is not significant yet; with such a high herbivore population, predators such as the African Lions and Hyenas roam the land looking for easy kills.

 

It sits in the shadow of the scenic view of Mount Kilimanjaro, making it one of the most famous safari destinations in the world. Regarding scenic beauty, Lake Amboseli graces the western part of the park. But the crowning jewel is the magnificent ice-peaked Mount Kilimanjaro, whose imposing presence commands your attention.

 

Tarangire National Park, which lies across the border, has its more extensive part rest in Tanzania. It's often seen as a playground for wild animals and home to august elephant herds.

 

Exploring this countryside during the dry season guarantees a diverse wildlife landscape of elephants, giraffes, zebras, lions, cheetahs, and buffalo, as the reserve's Tarangire River provides a permanent water source for its dependent Fauna.

 

As you journey along on your safari, feast your eyes on the massive Baobab trees native to mainland Africa—these skyscrapers of the savanna tower over the terrain as the backdrop to a remarkable safari.

 

Continuing in your pursuit of awe-inspiring views and wildlife, you'll want to visit Tanzania's Lake Manyara National Park. What serves as the quarters for tree-climbing lions, the country's largest elephant population, and countless pink flamingos, the highly acclaimed national park is a one-stop destination for nature lovers.

Adding to its charm is its chipper birdlife, where enthusiasts can easily spot up to 100 species in a single day. This borderless atrium is the perfect place to pull out your binoculars and do some diligent birdwatching.

 

An ultimate Kenya and Tanzania itinerary would not be complete without mention of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, the residence of the volcanic Ngorongoro Crater, and highly anticipated animal herds.

 

Give your trip a proper send-off by descending to the crater's floor to gain an even deeper look into the innumerable species in this space. Typical wildlife sightings include the huntsman lions, majestic elephants, striped zebra, and the occasional lucky spotting of the endangered rhino.

 

To truly dig beneath the surface of both Kenya and Tanzania, one must enlist in the activities mentioned earlier and soak in the enriching views accessible only by embarking on a trip hitting all these must-stop highlights.

 

Africa is a continent best explored by opening oneself up to new cultural norms and fearlessly plunging into the diverse landscape and wildlife encounters.
