Know Before You Go

East Africa Wildlife Guide

In Kenya and Tanzania, astounding numbers of wildebeest, zebra and gazelle journey across the sweeping grasslands of the savannah during the breathtaking Great Migration. Sunrise illuminates the spreading branches of an acacia tree, and the roar of a lion echoes for miles under a glittering night sky. Elephants, giraffe and buffalo drink at watering holes, as an exhilarating chase unfolds between cheetah and impala. A safari in East Africa is the ultimate opportunity to experience the Big Five and a plethora of magnificent wildlife, from prolific birdlife to mighty predators.
