The Greatest Wildlife Show on Earth – Kenya
It is considered the world’s quintessential wildlife experience and for good reason. The Great Wildebeest Migration, that sees millions of animals make the treacherous journey across Tanzania and Kenya each year, is a wildlife spectacle that moves through some of the most exquisite ecosystems on the planet. Experience survival of the fittest first-hand as you witness the pitfalls and triumphs of the massive herds as they undertake this hair-raising journey. The team of East African experts at Ker & Downey® Africa have put together a monthly calendar that follows the migratory pattern of the herds as they make the circular route through some of the most wildlife-rich regions in the world. Their LuxVenture® trips are uniquely tailored to ensure an unforgettable experience with you at the very heart of the action of this epic event.
Suggested trip: 9 Day Great Migration Safari in Tanzania
Roam with Africa’s endangered mountain gorillas – Rwanda | Uganda
Having a face-to-face encounter with the rare and endangered Silverback Mountain Gorillas is a once-in-a-lifetime wildlife experience. Considered to be the ultimate primate experience, gorilla trekking takes place deep in the African jungle, in a small handful of remote locations in the Albertine Rift montane forests. With only around 1,000 mountain gorillas left in the world, a gorilla trekking safari is a unique and impactful experience that contributes directly to the conservation and preservation of these magnificent primates. However, this bucket list worthy experience doesn’t come without a few challenges, which is why booking through a trusted travel partner is so important. From securing permits and expert local guides to seamless travel logistics in remote locations – Ker & Downey® Africa’s team has you covered.
Suggested trip: 5 Day Mountain Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda
Become part of the landscape and not merely a spectator by exploring Africa’s most remote and pristine bushveld wilderness… on foot. A walking safari is an epic wildlife experience that takes you off the roads, and deep into the unexplored parts of the bush. Led by professional guides, a walking safari guarantees a more intimate encounter with wildlife than if you were in a vehicle. For some of the best walking safaris on the continent, venture into Zambia’s South Luangwa National Park – a region considered to be the birthplace of walking safaris. Or explore the vast floodplains and diverse ecosystems of Chief’s Island in the central Okavango Delta in Botswana where prey game like wildebeest, giraffe, zebra, buffalo and lechwe attract an abundance of lurking predators…
Suggested trip: 10 Day South Luangwa Walking Safari
