Across East Africa

Safari plains, volcano forests and the Indian Ocean. Combine two or three countries and we plan the route and the flights between them.

In the spotlight

Uganda, where we are based [06]

Gorillas, chimpanzees, the Nile at full force and savannah parks, most within a day’s drive of Entebbe. It is the country we know best, and the easiest place to start or finish an East Africa trip.

Questions people ask

Not here? Ask us directly and we will reply on WhatsApp.

Can I visit more than one country?

Yes. Most of our visitors do. Tell us which countries you want to see and we plan the route, the border crossings and the flights between them.

Do I need a visa?

Each country has its own e-visa, applied for online before you travel. If your route covers Uganda, Kenya and Rwanda, the East Africa Tourist Visa covers all three on one visa. We will tell you which fits your route.

How far ahead should I book gorilla permits?

As early as you can. Permits are limited each day and sell out first in the drier months.

When is the best time to visit?

June to September and December to February are the driest months and the easiest for trekking and game drives. The parks are open all year.

Can you meet me at the airport?

Yes. We meet you on arrival, whether you land in Entebbe, Nairobi, Kilimanjaro or Kigali, and arrange every transfer after that.

Where is your office?

Kyato Complex, Level 5, Suite B5-18. Visit us or send a message first.
