From the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro to the sweeping savannahs of the Masai Mara, this luxury safari is curated for travelers seeking both adventure and indulgence. You’ll stay in some of Kenya’s most celebrated boutique lodges, enjoy seamless air transfers, and experience intimate wildlife encounters in two of Africa’s most iconic parks — Amboseli National Park and the Masai Mara.
Overview:
Witness one of the most awe-inspiring natural spectacles on Earth — the Great Migration — where millions of wildebeest, zebra, and antelope traverse the savannas in search of greener pastures, while predators lie in wait. This luxurious journey takes you across East Africa’s most iconic landscapes — from the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro in Amboseli, through the wilds of Tarangire and the lush Ngorongoro Crater, to the boundless Serengeti and majestic Maasai Mara. Along the way, enjoy elegant lodges, immersive cultural encounters, and unforgettable wildlife experiences.
Complete your grand African safari by experiencing one of the most extraordinary wildlife encounters on Earth — trekking to see the endangered mountain gorillas of east-central Africa. These rare primates live in two main habitats: the Virunga Volcanoes, which span Uganda, Rwanda, and the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in Uganda.
Rwanda
Best for: Comfort seekers and luxury travelers
Highlights: Easy access from Kigali, less strenuous treks, premium lodges
Main trekking area: Volcanoes National Park
Uganda
Best for: Adventurers and nature enthusiasts
Highlights: More rugged terrain, characterful lodges, rich biodiversity
Main trekking areas: Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga Gorilla National Park
Whether in Uganda or Rwanda, the experience follows a similar pattern:
Early Morning Transfer:
Your lodge will transfer you to the National Park headquarters. Permits are pre-arranged by your Janja Adventures planner.
Group Assembly & Assignment:
Visitors are divided into groups of up to 10 based on fitness levels and matched with a gorilla family.
Tracking the Gorillas:
Rangers track where each gorilla group nested the previous night. Depending on their location, you may drive to a closer trailhead or start at the park base.
Hire a Porter (Recommended – ~$20):
Porters help carry bags (with water, snacks, etc.) and provide employment to local communities.
Trekking Experience:
Once your group locates the gorillas, you are allowed to spend up to one hour in their presence — a profoundly moving and unforgettable encounter.
From Nairobi, Kenya:
Daily flights operate to both Kigali, Rwanda (~1.5 hours) and Entebbe, Uganda.

Domestic flights connect to Kisoro and Kihihi, near Bwindi. Alternatively, take a scenic road trip through Uganda’s diverse landscapes.

Explore the iconic Mara Triangle, a spectacular 510 km² wilderness that forms about one-third of the Maasai Mara National Reserve. This area is uniquely defined by the Oloololo Escarpment, the Mara River, and the international border with Tanzania, creating a distinct triangular shape.
The Mara Triangle boasts one of the highest densities of wildlife in Africa. Here, on a lucky day, you could witness all of the famous Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino, buffalo) within just a couple of square kilometers. It’s also home to cheetahs, wildebeest, zebras, giraffes, rock hyraxes, and a stunning variety of other species.
Game drives in the Mara Triangle offer unparalleled opportunities to witness dramatic wildlife interactions, including the epic Great Migration, where millions of animals traverse the Mara River. The best time to experience the migration’s river crossings is between July and October, but wildlife sightings are impressive year-round.
