Search for chimpanzees on a walking safari in Kyambura Gorge and cruise by hippos on a Kazinga channel boat trip. | | Days 5-8 | Gorilla Trek | Trek into the steamy jungle to try and get up close to mighty mountain gorillas. Visiting a local orphan school is a trip highlight. | | Days 9-10 | Lake Bunyoni | The gorgeous Lake Bunyoni region is an unforgettable destination. You might like to try your hand at sailing in a dugout canoe. They can be difficult to master at first but a great way to get up close to the beauty of the lake. | | Day 11 | Lake Mburo | | | Days 12-13 | Jinja | See the stunning Bujagali Falls, a series of raging rapids that dare you to traverse them. | | Day 14 | Nairobi | Enjoy being back in civilisation in Nairobi. | | Day 15 | Kisii | Travel west across the Great Rift Valley to the tea-growing areas of Kenya. | | Day 16 | Lake Victoria | Catch a glimpse of Masai men on the way to the continent's largest lake. | | Days 17-18 | Serengeti National Park | Appreciate the sheer size and animal life of the world-renowned Serengeti. Look out for game such as cheetahs, zebras and gazelles while exploring the vast grassy plains and kopjes of the park. | | Day 19 | Ngorongoro Crater | Explore the Cradle of Mankind, where ancient humanoid skeletons were discovered. | | Day 20 | Mto Wa Mbu | With 30,000 resident animals, animal-spotting in the Ngorongoro Crater is awesome. | | Day 21 | Nairobi | Leave the animals, lakes and plains sadly behind. |
