Notre Classic Best Adventure au Kenya et en Tanzanie vous propose un éventail de merveilles du monde à découvrir tout en séjournant dans des établissements de luxe qui offrent à leurs clients une expérience unique grâce à leur emplacement stratégique, à leur service personnalisé et à la valeur qu'ils offrent à leurs clients, ainsi qu'à l'emploi significatif qu'ils procurent à la population locale.
Le Serengeti et le Masai Mara sont les théâtres de l'un des plus grands spectacles de la planète : la migration des gnous, qui se produit lorsque des millions de troupeaux de gnous et de zèbres suivent les nouveaux pâturages qui apparaissent à la suite des pluies annuelles. Le circuit met également en lumière d'autres attractions majeures telles que le cratère du Ngorongoro, un volcan éteint effondré dont les riches prairies accueillent plus de 30 000 animaux. Le parc national d'Amboseli, célèbre pour ses grands troupeaux d'éléphants et les vues les plus classiques et à couper le souffle du gigantesque mont Kilimandjaro. L'île Cresent de Naivasha est l'un des plus beaux secrets du Kenya, où vous pourrez observer le gibier à pied ! Le pittoresque lac Manyara, célèbre pour ses lions grimpant aux arbres, ses flamants roses et ses magnifiques paysages, est également une visite incontournable du programme !
Tout au long du safari, vous traverserez les riches terres culturelles de l'Afrique de l'Est, notamment les Masaï, la légendaire tribu de guerriers et de bergers nomades qui dominent les magnifiques plaines, déplaçant de temps à autre leurs foyers à la recherche des meilleurs pâturages.

This morning enjoy a morning boat ride to the crescent island - The Park where you walk with the Animals! There is just one “Crescent Island Game Park” and it is located on Lake Naivasha, Kenya in the Great Rift Valley. There are more animals per acre than any other Kenyan Park, hence many film companies have been to the Island to film the herds of Wildebeest, Waterbuck, Zebra and Gazelle.
They are not fenced in, which allows the wildlife on the mainland to come in as they lose their habitat to development and the ever increasing population. Hippo graze all over us at night then sleep under the acacia or rest in the water by day. The giraffe who were born on the Island return to give birth; sometimes you see three generations at a time. Hyena come to hunt at night but are not resident on the island, the many python that live here can be seen occasionally with a kill. Groups of Buffalo come and go but they are always monitored.
From the top of the hill there is a 360 degree view across the Lake from Longonot to Hell’s Gate to the Mau Escarpment to Eburu and onto the Aberdares. Walking along the ridge in the golden hour before sunset whilst watching the animals grazing with the water shimmering beyond is what Africa is all about. Take a boat back to the lodge.
