Join Fun Happenings for a “ONCE IN A LIFETIME” TRIP, as we experience the magic of Africa with Gorilla Trekking in Rwanda and a Kenya Safari Adventure this October 21-November 3, 2023.

It's true what they say about Africa...“Africa changes you forever, like nowhere on earth. Once you have been there, you will never be the same. But how do you begin to describe its magic to someone who has never felt it?” Brian Jackman

During this Amazing safari experience of a lifetime, we will explore Rwanda and Kenya, two of the most beautiful countries in Africa. In Rwanda, we tour Kigali, the capital city and gorilla trek in Volcanoes National Park. In Kenya, we explore Nairobi as well as visit some of the most beautiful National Parks in Eastern Africa, including the Famous Masai Mara National Reserve.

There’s no getting around the fact that gorilla trekking is expensive – in Volcanoes National Park it’s US$1500 for a single day permit, but know that your money has a real impact on the gorillas’ welfare by funding research projects, healthcare and protection for the gorillas, as well as investments in schools, roads and health centers for local communities. These gorilla permits also help in limiting the number of people trekking the gorillas in order to limit stress on these apes and on their habitat, that may result in a change in their behavior or even death.

The fee also allows you to participate in one of the most incredible wildlife watching experiences on the planet. Gorillas are one of our closest relatives, sharing 98 percent of our DNA, and their behavior is so similar to our own that watching them play, relax and interact is both an uncanny and emotional experience.

During our two days in Volcanoes National Park, we will stay at the Mountain Gorilla View Lodge. After two nights at Volcano National Park, we return to Kigali where we will enjoy a unique cultural tour with free time to shop in the open markets. This evening we transfer to the airport for our 7:00 pm flight to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi, Kenya (NBO). After our arrival in Nairobi, we will transfer to our hotel for the next three nights, the Tamarind Tree Hotel, before visiting two other park in Kenya.

No other African country boasts the diversity of Kenya, a country roughly twice the size of Nevada. Kenya is the regional hub for trade and finance in East Africa, and its economy is dominated by tourism, transportation, communications and agriculture, with the principal cash crops being tea, horticultural produce and coffee.

Nairobi, the capital, is home to 3.4 million people. This cosmopolitan city is the heartbeat of Kenya with its delicious cuisine, distinctive architecture, and local Maasai people. Nairobi also has the wildlife-packed Nairobi National Park on its doorstep and is the gateway to Lake Naivasha and the vast Masai Mara Reserve. This fascinating city is the perfect place to continue our African adventure

We will witness the Great Migration, over 1.5 million wildebeest, antelope and zebra as they race across Tanzania’s Serengeti to the Masai Mara, in search of greener pastures.
