WATCH FOR EXCITING NEWS...KENYA 2020 is coming!!
Kenya, August 7-19th, 2020 Look for 2020 Kenya trip details..coming soon!
I have shared that my original trip to Kenya was LIFE CHANGING. It is an almost spiritual experience to see the animals that I read about in books and saw on the pages of National Geographic...Not in a zoo, but actually on the plains of the Masai Mara or up in the more northern parts of Kenya. To actually see the lions, zebras, hippos, monkeys, rhinos, flamingos and, oh so many more, in their natural environment was so moving that it brought tears to my eyes. To see and smell the rich fertile soil of the Rift Valley took me to a primal place...somehow recognizing how precious and beautiful this world is.
So to now be able to share another incredible photo safari to Kenya is almost beyond words. A lot of time, thought and care has been put into this trip. I wanted it to be affordable but offer an amazing, comfortable experience of this country. We will have 13 day, 11 nights in Kenya and visit Lake Nakuru and the Mara and Samburu. It has been designed to stay the first 2 nights in Nairobi to get acclimated after the long trip, but will include some special visits including the David Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage and the Karen Blixen estate. This is peak migration time! We have nearly 2 safari game drives each day of the safari part of the trip, and our vehicles are designed for us...to have a maximum of 4 people in each vehicle, with a maximum of 8 people in total on safari in two vehicles! The price is inclusive of your airfare from New York direct to Nairobi for $8999 for double occupancy, from August 7-17th, 2020, and includes all lodging, transportation, guiding and most meals. (Tips, alcohol, non alcoholic drinks with meals and personal items are not included.)
This is AN ADVENTURE OF A LIFETIME... I hope that you will consider joining me. The detailed information and sign up link will be coming shortly!!
