Overview
What this journey is.
This is the polished Kenya safari: short flights, a small Mara camp, one balloon morning, and a finish among Amboseli’s elephants. You do not spend the best hours of the day on a long transfer. The balloon is included. Kilimanjaro is a view from the Kenyan side of the border, not a climb in Tanzania.
