CULTURAL SAFARI KL/C16 |
| An ideal safari for those who
would like to combine game-viewing with a view of Kenya's rich
and fascinating culture. On this trip you will visit several
tribes in their natural environments, and receive a rare peek
into the day-to-day lives of Kenyan tribes people. You will
visit the rugged north, the beautiful Rift Valley and the famous
Masai Mara. In order to show you as much of this incredible
country as possible, the trip involves a fair amount of driving
within a relatively short period of time. However, we utilize
only the best tented camps or lodges, and we ensure the comfort
of our minibuses. |
