Highlights include Gorilla trekking, nights in the famous Masai Mara, village visits with a Masai tribe, a chance to spend time at Soft Power Educational Project in Uganda as well as optional adventure activities such as rafting on the Nile and quad biking. For wildlife enthusiasts the game parks include Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti.
