YOUR GUIDE TO EAST AFRICA

Two countries, one unforgettable safari

Africa is a once-in-a-lifetime journey — and East Africa is its beating heart. Kenya alone has more than fifty parks and reserves plus the white sands of Diani Beach; Tanzania holds the Serengeti, the Ngorongoro Crater and Zanzibar.

Ximba is a licensed local operator with people on the ground in both countries. That means we can follow the wildlife across the border in a single seamless trip — most companies can’t — and look after every detail from the moment you land to the moment you fly home
