There are many options available when it comes to choosing the perfect African Safari adventure. Variations can include region, duration and the specifics of what you
are hoping to see once you are there. Planning is crucial in order to avoid the
disappointment of spending three weeks watching hippos wallow when actually you
wanted to see lions playing with their cubs!

Kenya is possibly the main place many safari lovers think of when considering their adventure and not
without good reason! The great migration of Wildebeest every June is said to be
one of the most breath-taking experiences visitors can have. the sights, sounds
and smells generated by in excess of a million of these majestic creatures makes
for one of the most awe inspiring sensory feasts one could experience. In
addition to wildebeest are Zebra, Lions and Hyena and for those who wish to take
their experience to the edge of the Mara river, swelled by the heavy rains, the
giant crocodiles await. Variations to the traditional safari include Hot Air
Balloon Safaris that allow the traveller to witness the treasures of the Kenyan
plains from a different angle entirely. The birds` eye view gives a spectacular
panoramic perspective to the wildlife below resulting in the opportunity to see
a whole host of creatures in their natural habitats. Bird watching Safaris are
also a popular ! alternative to lion and elephant spotting.

Consider Tanzania as a destination - home of the Serengeti wildlife reserve and the
destination for the migrating wildebeest. Large herds of Zebra and the breeding
Gnus can be seen here. Whilst in Tanzania, why not venture to the Ngorongoro
Crater - a geological wonder created by the collapse of an enormous volcano, or
visit the highest mountain in Africa, Kilimanjaro.

If a Mountain Gorilla encounter is more at the heart of your dreams then you cannot afford to miss the opportunity to visit Uganda. It is here you will find specialist safaris that will take you through the Bwindi impenetrable
forest and to the homes of some of the last surviving wild mountain gorillas.
Specialist permits are needed for these visits so bookings need to be made
months in advance. Following your journey to the land of the big apes, a trip to
Lake Mburo National Park is highly recommended. Here you will see a variety of
game including Zebra, Impala, buffalo and hippo as well as a selection from the
hundreds of species of birds the Park is home to. For info visit Inside Africa
Budget Safaris.
Once you know where you are going, a visit to your GP will ensure you are protected health wise. Vaccinations and Anti Malaria tablets should be offered as a minimum.
