    The Best of East Africa Safari was an incredibly wonderful tour. The tour leader and drivers were professional and a pleasure to work with. The itinerary was superb for watching and photographing wildlife in 5 national parks in Kenya and Tanzania. The safari lodges and camps were of high quality with excellent meals and a pleasure to stay in. Really a perfect once in a life time experience. We highly recommend it.

    I am a travel agent and took a group of clients to Kenya and Tanzania for a safari experience. From the start, the communications with the company were timely and informative. Once we arrived, the entire tour was seamless and problem-free. One of my best trips ever! Can't recommend highly enough!

    This was an amazing adventure. Emmanuel with the tour company went above and beyond to be there for every step of the journey. Our guides were knowledgeable and knew where to be and when to get us the best views and pictures of wildlife. We saw more than we ever expected. The accommodations were good and nicely varied. Overall this trip way exceeded my expectations. What a great time! Thank you Emmanuel!

All questions
  • A

    Alicia

    Asked on March 2nd, 2025

    Why can't you book as a solo traveler and select a single private room? Why does the accommodation drop down list 17 nights accommodation, when the tour is 12 days and the flights dropdown includes Regional Flights Kigali Nairobi (one Way) and Arusha Zanzibar (One Way), when Kigali, Arusha and Zanzibar are not even on the itinerary? Are there possibilities of extending the tour i.e. adding nights before or after?

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    Tour Details
    • Holiday Destination SafarisOperatorWritten March 2025

      Yes, you can book as a solo traveler for this trip though the price will be US$ 11700.00. Accommodation is 11 nights and not 17 as stated. We have made that correction on the site. The trip has only one flight inclusion of Kigali Nairobi (one way) which is stated in the itinerary. Yes we can add extra nights before the and after the tour departing on your time of travel.

      Alicia

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      That would be double the listed price and effectively means I would be paying for 2 people. How is that correct or justified? I appreciate a single supplement would be added and could increase the price by $1000-$1500 for instance. That is way out of my budget, with an international flight still to add and for just 12 days.

    • Holiday Destination SafarisOperatorWritten March 2025

      The price of US$11,700.00 is based on traveling just alone on the trip and not accompanying any group. We can still customize the trip to suit your needs and budget.

    Kimberly

    Asked on February 24th, 2024

    I want to confirm if this is a group tour and how many people will be on the tour. Also, is this focused on seeing the great migration at the Maya River? Is August or September the better date to see the river crossing?

    Group size
    Tour Details
    • Holiday Destination SafarisOperatorWritten February 2024

      We do have an alternative safari of 11 days and 10 nights of unforgettable safari experiences for Affordable Kenya Tanzania. We have few spaces available and it departs on August 4th. We trust that this safari tour suits your preferences and aspirations as it focusses more on migration.

    Wendy

    Asked on April 5th, 2023

    I am from United States and have had covid vaccination and ONE booster. I do NOT want the the other booster shots that followed the first one. Will I be able to go on this vacation?

      Wendy

      TravelerWritten April 2023

      Not happy.....you did NOT answer my question about covid vaccines. Do I need all the boosters, or is the one booster I had sufficient for travel?

    • Holiday Destination SafarisOperatorWritten April 2023

      All you need is a covid vaccine and a yellow fever inoculation certificate. The emphasis is on the main vaccine and not the boosters.
