What To Expect On Your Journey CULTURE & HERITAGE There’s no better way to experience a region than by immersing yourself in local culture. Gain a genuine appreciation of a place, its people and landscapes by learning directly from those who truly understand it. Meet and stay with locals, explore historical sites and marketplaces, and eat traditional delicacies for a sincere, rich experience. WILDLIFE & WILDERNESS Getting up close and personal with wildlife that you’ve only seen in magazines can be a touching experience. Witness animals in their natural environment – often far-flung, breathtaking backdrops. By exploring mountains, lakes, gorges, plains and rainforests, you’ll feel an honest connection to nature and her wild inhabitants. ACTIVE ADVENTURES Our adventure journeys are created to offer a rewarding journey without needing a wealth of previous travel experience. Enjoy all the comforts and conveniences such as exceptional cuisine and friendly porters to carry and transfer your luggage. Many of our adventures could be found in a ‘hard adventure’ category, but physical exertion is not the aim and you can rest assured there’ll be a comfortable night’s sleep at the end of an active day. www.safiriadventures.com.au 09

KENYA For many people, Kenya is the ultimate safari destination. For centuries, many have journeyed to Kenya in search of the stunning scenery, the abundant wildlife and, at the heart of it, the promise of adventure. This African region has become synonymous with adventure because of the diverse wildlife, culture and the range of activities it offers. From the African wildlife tours, game drives, and river walks, to air safaris and magnificent balloon safaris over the massai Mara, Kenya has a variety of itineraries that will leave each visitor’s thirst for adventure deeply satiated. 14 www.safiriadventures.com.au

KENYA & TANZANIA For sheer weight of numbers and species of animals and birdlife, the wildlife reserves of Kenya and Tanzania are arguably the world’s best and most rewarding. The open grasslands offer excellent game viewing opportunities and the phenomena of the annual migration of wildebeest and zebra be- tween the Serengeti National park in Tanzania and the Massai Mara Game Reserve in Kenya, is one of the world’s most remarkable sights. www.safiriadventures.com.au 15

TANZANIA Tanzania is a country rich in traditions and culture, from the early days of mankind’s history, to the traders and merchants along the Swahili coast. With its diversity of landscapes – from the savannah of the Serengeti to the tropical rainforests, mountains, lakes and beautiful beaches- Tanzania offers the ideal destination for any kind of visitor, whether your interest is game viewing on safari in the National Parks, climbing the highest mountain in Africa, Mount Kilimanjaro, or relaxing on the exotic beaches of Zanzibar. 16 www.safiriadventures.com.au

Wto eZlcoamenzibar Zanzibar is the mystical and magical Island where the fusion of Arab, African and European cultures has created a style of cuisine, exotic sensations and a colourful tapestry of architecture, heritage, myth and magic that is found nowhere else in the world. The unhurried pace of the local lifestyle will take you centuries back in time. Zanzibar was created for ro- mance and serenity. Immerse yourself in the crys- tal-clear waters of the warm Indian Ocean, sip on a freshy cut coconut fruit from our waving palm trees, indulge in a relaxing massage, dive the Coral reefs, enjoy the sumptuous sea food and experience the warm, genuine Swahili hospitality. The experience is unmatched and unforgettable. Photo Credit: Elewana 17

RWANDA & UGANDA Although perhaps not as well-known for general wildlife viewing, Rwanda and Uganda are renowned for the absolutely unique experience of gorilla trekking and the prolific population of primates – many not found in other African wildlife regions. Both countries have a wide variety of general wildlife with the Queen Elizabeth National Park being famous for its tree- climbing lions at Ishasha 18 www.safiriadventures.com.au
