Our Destinations

Rwanda

Rwanda offers a unique African experience with its striking landscapes of volcanoes, rainforests, and vast lakes. This small Central African country, located in the Great Rift Valley, is known for its vibrant greenery and stunning mountain views. A major highlight for visitors is the opportunity to track critically endangered Mountain Gorillas in the Parc National des Volcans. These gorillas, with only 880 individuals left, live exclusively in their native mountain habitats, making Rwanda a must-visit for adventure seekers and wildlife enthusiasts.

Uganda

Uganda, known as the “Pearl of Africa,” is celebrated for its diverse beauty and wildlife, combining East and West Africa’s best. The country offers vast savannas, tropical rainforests, and Africa’s highest mountain range. Visitors can see a wide array of animals, from elephants and lions to gorillas and chimpanzees. With its equatorial location, Entebbe and the capital, Kampala, showcase Uganda’s natural charm and growing modernity. Uganda’s rich cultural tapestry and scenic landscapes, including the Rwenzori Mountains and Nile River, make it an exceptional safari destination.

Tanzania

Tanzania, the largest country in East Africa, covers nearly 1 million km² and boasts diverse landscapes, including islands, soda lakes in the Great Rift Valley, and vast wilderness areas with the highest concentration of wildlife in Africa. With a tropical climate, Tanzania offers natural wonders such as the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Ruaha, Mt. Kilimanjaro, and Zanzibar. Its 48 million-strong tribal population warmly welcomes visitors to experience its beauty, from pristine beaches to world-renowned game reserves, making it a unique African destination.

Congo

The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is Africa’s third-largest country, covering nearly 2.5 million sq km. It is home to the world’s second-largest rainforest, vast savannas, plateaus, and mountain ranges. The Congo River system and the Great Lakes, formed by tectonic activity, dominate its geography. The DRC is Africa’s most biologically diverse country, housing unique species like bonobos, okapis, and mountain gorillas. Its rich cultural diversity includes over 200 tribes, with the Mbuti Pygmies among the few true forest-dwelling peoples still practicing traditional lifestyles.

Kenya

Kenya, a vibrant jewel of East Africa, spans over 580,000 km² and is renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, diverse ecosystems, and rich cultural heritage. From the iconic savannahs of the Maasai Mara and the snow-capped peaks of Mount Kenya to the serene beaches along the Indian Ocean and the Rift Valley’s lakes, Kenya offers unmatched natural beauty. Known for its abundant wildlife and thrilling safaris, it hosts the Big Five and the annual wildebeest migration, a spectacle like no other. Home to over 50 million people from diverse ethnic groups, Kenya warmly invites travelers to explore its wonders and vibrant traditions.
