The Great Migration
It’s an annual migration of more than two million wildebeest and twenty thousand other game animals from Serengeti National Park in Tanzania towards the Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya. The wildebeests embark on the great migration voyage, searching for better grazing pastures and sufficient drinking water.
The migration patterns depend on the different seasons experienced throughout the year. The historical event begins in the north and terminates in the south—an incredible stretch of more than 3000 Kilometers.
Big 5 Safari
Way back in the 19th century, big game hunters in Africa first coined the term, -The Big Five’ about the five animals they considered the most dangerous to hunt on foot, especially when cornered or wounded. The reasons each of the five animals made it onto the list may have varied somewhat but invariably it boiled down to the temperament when pursued, their cunning and their ability to defend themselves.
Photographic Safari
For many photographers, a wildlife safari across East Africa is a bucket list experience that promises an abundance of opportunities to capture images of exotic wildlife, pristine wilderness landscapes and colorful cultural portraits. Any photographer who has been to Africa will tell you that the light is phenomenal, not to mention the twice-daily extravaganza as the sun rises above and dips below the horizon.
Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro
Rising 5 895 meters (19 341 ft) above the surrounding landscape, Mount Kilimanjaro holds the dual records of being Africa’s highest and the world’s tallest freestanding mountain. With habitats ranging from rainforest to alpine desert, it is an ecologically diverse environment blessed with outstanding scenic beauty.
Whether novice or experienced, seen from its base or the summit, Mount Kilimanjaro promises a rewarding experience equal to the challenge of scaling its weathered, sheer slopes.
