8 NIGHTS FLYING ACROSS AFRICA - NAIROBI, KENYA, TANZANIA, RWANDA, NAIROBI -

"All I wanted to do was get back to Africa. We had not left it, yet, but when I would wake in the night I would lie, listening, homesick for it already. Now, looking out" Ernest Hemingway

IV - GREEN HILLS OF AFRICA - JET SAFARIS COLLECTION

8 NIGHTS FLYING ACROSS EAST AFRICA - NAIROBI - KENYA, TANZANIA, RWANDA, NAIROBI -

A tribute to the legendary Ernest Hemingway, who after returning from Safari in East Africa was inspired to turn his journal into a book called “Green Hills of Africa”. Ernest Hemingway was the creator of the word “Safari” who imprinted the true meaning of "safari" known to most explorers throughout history and today’s travellers as "journey".

Hemingway fell in love with the glorious vistas and wildlife of Africa and after this he returned home and started writing, immersed in the inspiration from his multiple East African wildlife adventures.

During this journey through Kenya, Tanzania, and Rwanda you will have the opportunity to understand the true meaning of the word "Safari”. Safari is not a choice, Safari is a lifestyle.

ITINERARY:• 1 nights Nairobi• 3 nights Kenya, Maasai Mara National Reserve • 3 nights Tanzania, Ngorongoro Crater Conservancy• 3 nights Rwanda, Volcanoes National Park

KENYA - MAASAI MARA NATIONAL RESERVE - 3 NIGHTS

KENYA MAASAI MARA NATIONAL RESERVE

“The children were very young, men and women all seemed to be of the same age. There were no old people. They all seemed to be our greatest friends [...] big and straight in their brown skins, with their massive hanging braids, their faces dyed in brick-red, leaning on their spears, following us with looks and smiling " . E.H.

Named in honour of the Maasai people who call this corner of Africa home, the Mara is world renowned for its exceptional populations of lion, leopard, cheetah, herds a thousand strong of buffalo, the rare black rhino and a thriving elephant population.

West of the Mara River, beneath the Oloololo escarpment and bordered by Tanzania to the South lies the jewel of this great reserve: the Mara Triangle. Not only is this the most productive part of the entire Serengeti-Mara ecosystem in terms of grass nutrition, but it is also spectacularly scenic. The huge grassy plains are dotted with widely spaced Balanites trees that give the landscape an almost manicured look, which together with the steep-sided escarpment and broad Mara River, provides a breath-taking backdrop for wildlife photographers.

ACTIVITIES INCLUDED IN THE EXPERIENCE • All guided safaris in Mara triangle • Guided walking safaris on Rift Valley escarpment HIGHLIGHTS• Site of the annual wildebeest migration • Iconic landscapes of open savanna • Maasai cultural encounters

TANZANIA - NGORONGORO CRATER - 2 NIGHTS

TANZANIA NGORONGORO CRATER CONSERVATION AREA

“If you looked away from the forest and the mountain side you could follow the watercourses and the hilly slope of the land down until the land flattened and the grass was brown and burned and, away, across a long sweep of country, was the brown Rift Valley and the shine of Lake Manyara” E.E.

Ngorongoro Conservation Area is in Northern Tanzania, home to the vast, volcanic Ngorongoro Crater and “big 5” game (elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo, rhino).

Olduvai Gorge is a misspelling of Oldupai, a Maasai word for a wild sisal plant that grows in the area. The gorge is located in the Great Rift Valley, between the Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti National Park. It is 30 miles from Laetoli, another fossil-rich area. Olduvai Gorge was formed about 30,000 years ago, the result of aggressive geological activity and streams.

Olduvai Gorge, the cradle of mankind, best known as home of the earliest remains of homo sapiens• Hadzabe Bushmen Experience - a fascinating cultural highlight now being offered to guests visiting
