Our Top Travel Experiences in East Africa
Wildlife
Serengeti. Masaai Mara. Ngorongoro Crater. Need we say more? Some of Africa's best known (and therefore sometimes most crowded) wildlife experiences are in East Africa. We never tire of visiting game parks.
Beach time

Rivers
The Nile River's source is in Uganda, and there are many other rivers crossing this region to experience.

A melting pot of Arabic and African cultures, Zanzibar has a rich and varied history. Tribal history and cultures are also in abundance throughout East Africa.
