What the fare includes
- Quintessential Kenya and Tanzania There are marvelous earthly places that, no matter how many pictures we’ve seen of them, how many documentaries and travelogues we’ve watched, still rocket past our expectations. The Grand Canyon and the Taj Mahal come to mind, and so do the grand game lands of East Africa. We’ve been acquainted with its animals since we hugged them in our cribs. But coming close to them, watching them as they go about their free-ranging lives, is a revelation. We thought we knew them until we met up with them in their homelands and we realize that we are truly in what we call, in uppercase, A World Apart. On our new East Africa’s Golden Savannahs we savour and roam in the ultimate exemplars of that unique world: The fabled Serengeti, the Maasai Mara, Tsavo, and–excuse a phrase your strictest English teacher would disapprove of–the most unique game land of all, the Ngorongoro Crater. We chose the camps and lodges for this safari because they were created to honour and compliment the beautiful landscapes of the game lands, and because they allow us to inhabit this World Apart in thoughtful luxury, imbued with gentle, smiling African hospitality. Highlights A spirited Nairobi day of meeting and hand-feeding at the beloved Giraffe Centre, touring the elegant home and gardens of Karen Blixen (baroness behind Out of Africa), and lunching at one of the city’s many stylish restaurants. There’s time to meet the warm-hearted kids at Micato AmericaShare Harambee Centre before resting up for tomorrow’s long-awaited safari-ing. The intoxicating Maasai Mara, home to the greatest assembly of wild (and wondrous) animals on planet Earth. The fabled Serengeti, as experienced from the chic, luxurious (and freshly opened) Elewana Serengeti Explorer. Flamingo-thronged Lake Manyara, a colourful warmup to a dramatic descent into the world’s largest intact caldera, Ngorongoro Crater. The Big Five – upright, in repose, and ever-ready for another breathtaking cameo.
