Where to go

Kenya

Kenya the home of safari, where the original safaris began, is our home at Offbeat Safaris. A country renowned for its vast wilderness, rich in culture, history, people and wildlife. Witness the Great Migration as millions of wildebeest meander through the Maasai Mara, climb Mount Kenya, snorkel in the turquoise Indian Ocean, or be mesmerised by the Laikipia plateau. Whether in a vehicle, on foot, on horseback, or floating over the plains in a hot air balloon, big game viewing is second to none.

Tanzania

A country with diverse landscapes, wildlife safaris, cultural immersion and idyllic beaches, Tanzania is one of the best places for an unforgettable experience. We are able to tailor make a wonderful itinerary, encompassing some of Tanzania’s highlights – viewing millions of wildebeest crossing the plains of the Serengeti, visiting the Ngorongoro Crater makes for some stunning photographic opportunities, climbing the majestic Mount Kilimanjaro; observing the chimpanzees in the in Mahale National Park; exploring the spice island of Zanzibar and relaxing on one of its pristine beaches, to name just a few of Tanzania’s experiences that will leave life long memories.

Uganda & Rwanda

With its stunning scenery, warm and friendly people, Rwanda is known as the land of a thousand hills and is blessed with extraordinary biodiversity and incredible wildlife living throughout its volcanoes, montane rainforests and sweeping plains. From the unique opportunity to see gorillas and chimpanzees in their natural habitats across three National Parks, to visiting the museums (an interesting insight into Rwanda’s cultural history and Monarchy) and art galleries in Kigali, Rwanda truly has so much to offer!
