Hi
I am really excited that after feverish hours of research I have found the perfect itinerary which combines:
- getting a close shot of Mt Kilimanjaro from the perfect location: Amboseli National Park
- getting the best of safaris (Amboseli in Kenya, Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater) - 6 days
- seeing flamingos at Lake Manyara
- relaxing on white sand beaches and going scuba diving in Zanzibar 2-3 days
Flight London-Nairobi, Zanzibar-London: GBP550.
Duration: 11 days
Period: 26 May-5 June
Accomodation: lodges and hotel.
Obviously, looking for best price options was another hassle.
We are looking at under GBP 2,000 if you are flying from London (all expenses included, including flight, except: vaccins, visa - see details below). Yes, it does seem a lot, but safaris in Africa are very costly if you want to get the best experience. Yes, you can find cheaper deals, but by the time you realise everything they don't include (airport transfers, night at the hotel before the trip, certain meals etc.) you end up paying even more.
We will be going through a Kenyan well reputed agency which will run the itinerary (safaris), cover for transportation, food and accomodation.
The agency price is $1,990 (£1,250)and it includes:
-Guarantee price/guarantee safari on confirmation
-Ground transport whilst on safari in a comfortable 4x4 tour van in Kenya and 4x4 safari Land cruiser/Rover
-Full board accommodation whilst on safari
-Accommodation in double/twin room.
-All park entrance fees to include government taxes
-Service of an English speaking professional driver/guide
-All game drives as detailed in the itinerary
-Ngorongoro Crater tour
-Complementary 1 litre bottled drinking water while on safari
- 3 night’s accommodations at a beach resort on half board basis i.e. - breakfast and dinner
- airport transfer in Zanzibar
-JRO – Zanzibar flight
Tour Cost excludes:
-Tips
-Laundry
-Beverages/Drinks
-International flights
-Visas
- Zanzibar airport departure taxes US$ 25 per person payable directly
-Water sports and Zanzibar excursions – Can be arranged on request.
The price is based on 4ppl group (or multiples of 4) - the more, the merrier.
Let me know if you are interested and I will send you more details (itinerary/day).
I am very excited. It's going to be incredible. Just google for images of these places.
We also have plenty of time to meet and plan it out.
See you soon.
Ariela
PS: NO, I do not represent the agency, neither do I get anything from them for doing this, just need some travel buddies to meet the numbers - and the more, the better :)
