Which are the Best Safari Destinations for Seniors in Africa?

Africa is blessed with amazing safari destinations that offer our guests amazing and authentic experiences. Below we have listed the best 5 destinations where seniors can enjoy and have relaxed wildlife holidays.

  1. Masai Mara National Reserve

    The best destination in Kenya for Wildebeest Crossings and big cat sightings, birding, and wild adventures. Enjoy short and full-day game drives, enjoying sightings of the Tano bora cheetah coalition, or the big lion prides roaming the plains of the Mara.
     
  2. Serengeti National Park

    Sharing the same ecosystem with the Masai Mara, it is best for wildebeest calving, Migration, and crossings too. Witness more than 8000 wildebeest calves born daily in the Ndutu conservation area, South of Serengeti, a magical moment to admire. Also best for big cat sightings, too.

  3. Amboseli National Park

    Imagine waking up to the cracking sound of birds and opening your door, and the beauty of Mt. Kilimanjaro awes you with awe. That’s the best of Amboseli, but an additional game drive with the elephants completes your holiday.
