Tanzania & Kenya Travel Guide

What to do in Tanzania & Kenya

When you think of Tanzania and Kenya, you might immediately think of epic landscapes and Mount Kilimanjaro, the Big Five and the Great Migration. On a trip with Rickshaw Travel, we will take you further into the destination. Our team has heaps of first-hand experience, and we know the country inside-out to bring you closer to the people and places you visit. Pick your own coffee, learn how to cook traditional food with a local family, stay overnight with the Masai people. We can suggest where to stay and which activities to include, so you can experience Tanzania and Kenya in your own unique way.

Amazing landscapes

Savannahs, mountains, vast lakes and white sand beaches – you can find them all in Tanzania and Kenya. Get active with a climb up to the summit of Mount Meru Mountain, or trek on the flanks of Mount Kenya. Take a boat journey across Lake Naivasha or the lesser-visited Lake Baringo spotting for hippos and colourful birds. Be wowed by the dramatic landscapes of the Great Rift Valley and the Ngorongoro Crater. Travelling by 4×4 you will be able to explore all types of terrain whilst keeping your eyes peeled for the amazing wildlife and amazing scenery along the way.

Wildlife and safaris

The national parks of Tanzania and Kenya are home to an abundant amount of wildlife, including the Big Five. The ideal way to spot the animals is on a safari with a specialist guide. We offer walking safaris and 4×4 safaris so you have the best chance to spot the big and the small creatures that call this magical place home.

The Great Migration is one of Mother Nature’s most spectacular events. Every year, over a million wildebeest, zebras, and antelopes migrate across the vast plains of the Serengeti in Tanzania towards the Masai Mara in Kenya. This incredible experience is a huge draw for visitors to Tanzania and Kenya, and we’ll help you find the best spots to witness it for yourself. Advance booking is essential.

Paradise beaches

Nothing beats relaxing on a white-sand beach during your holiday. We know the perfect spot to soak up the sun, take a dip in the turquoise ocean and peek beneath the waves on a snorkelling trip. Whether that’s picture-perfect beaches of Zanzibar or the palm-lines sands of Diani in Kenya. Our seafront lodges and hotels are ideal for a few days chilling after a busy trip through Tanzania and Kenya.
