Overview

21 Day Tour from Entebbe to Dar es Salaam
Designed from the ground up for a maximum of 24 guests in Africa, this Small Group Discovery tour has everything you need to explore with up-close-and-exclusive experiences that go beyond traditional tours.

Small groups lead to big experiences on this Small Group Discovery tour of Africa. Embark on one of the world’s ultimate “bucket list” adventures—tracking mountain gorillas in the wild. Venture into Uganda’s legendary Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, where expert trackers lead you deep into the lush rainforest in search of the rare and endangered mountain gorilla. The trek leads you through beautiful terrain, culminating in an extraordinary reward: an intimate, once in a lifetime encounter as you quietly observe a silverback and his family in their natural habitat.

In Nairobi, feed endangered giraffes at the Giraffe Center, meet orphaned elephant calves at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, and visit the former home of Out of Africa author Karen Blixen! The “Big 5”—lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, and Cape buffalo await you on this ultimate safari through East Africa. Featuring unique lodges and tented camps, custom-made 4-wheel-drive safari vehicles, and exclusive meals in the bush, this Kenya and Tanzania tour promises larger than life experiences and countless memories. You’ll savor the unique terrain and wildlife at seven renowned national parks, reserves, and conservancies, including the famous Maasai Mara National Reserve, and the vast, volcanic Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Beyond sightings of the “Big 5,” be on the lookout for cheetah, wildebeest, crocodile, hippo, and rhino. You’ll also enjoy a visit to the Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary as well as the endearing experience of interacting with local children at a primary school in Karatu. A Small Group Discovery tour to go wild for!

Explore more on your tour of Africa with time in Nairobi and Zanzibar. In Nairobi, feed endangered giraffes at the Giraffe Center and meet orphaned elephant calves at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. Indulge in 5-star luxury on the white-sand beaches of the Indian Ocean with a stay at BlueBay Beach Resort & Spa—one of Zanzibar’s most prestigious beachfront resorts. The perfect retreat to relax and recharge after your safari adventure!

Notes:
  • ALERT: Gorilla trekking can take up to seven hours and requires a high level of physical fitness, including the ability to hike unassisted through dense forest on uneven, slippery terrain at elevations up to 8,553 feet. Shortness of breath and rest breaks are common.
    For the protection of the primates, any visitor showing signs of illness will not be permitted to enter Bwindi Impenetrable National Park.
    During gorilla trekking, only basic nature toilets are available.
    Wildlife activities carry inherent risks due to unpredictable animal behavior; participation is optional.
    All travelers to Uganda must carry proof of yellow fever vaccination and should consult their healthcare provider regarding malaria prophylaxis and overall suitability for this tour.

    Bwindi Impenetrable National Park has four areas: Rushaga, Buhoma, Nkuringo, and Ruhija. Depending on permit availability, your gorilla trek may vary from different areas of the park, it is still part of Bwindi.

    The Great Migration is a natural event with herds typically in the Maasai Mara from August to early November. Movements and river crossings of migrating herds can be challenging to predict year to year. When possible, we’ll modify game viewing when advised of reported sightings. Since this safari includes Kenya’s Maasai Mara National Reserve and Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park, you’re guaranteed to see the herds no matter when you visit.

    All game viewing is done at your own risk and requires a signed liability waiver prior to travel.

    Some internal flights have a strict maximum guest weight limit of 265 lbs. / 120 kgs. Any guests weighing more than the limit may be required to purchase an additional seat. Globus Tour Operations must be advised of any guests weighing more than the limit prior to final payment to ensure space can be confirmed.
