Noted for its year-round natural beauty, featuring rocky escarpments and pockets of acacia trees, Lake Nakuru National Park is home to both black and white rhinos, hippos, leopards, lions, and endangered Rothschild giraffes. The park is named for Lake Nakuru, a soda lake nestled into the ancient Great Rift Valley and a feeding ground for thousands of flamingos.

You’ll be staying at The Cliff, a luxury tented camp located on a rock face, offering incredible panoramic views over the lake. Head out on an evening game drive in an open-sided Land Cruiser, then relax by the infinity pool with a sundowner.

Start your morning with a dawn game drive around Lake Nakuru National Park, watching the sunrise’s colors light up the lake while watching wildlife come alive. The park is famous for birdwatching, with a huge collection of colorful species to spot, including the famous pink flamingos.

Next, you’ll head to Loldia Airstrip, where you’ll take a domestic flight to the Masai Mara, Kenya’s superlative wildlife-watching destination. You’ll be staying for two nights at Saruni Mara, a luxury property comprised of five elegant cottages, one family villa, and one private villa. Tucked away in Africa: Mara North Conservancy, a stay at Saruni Mara offers access to an exclusive, private wildlife concession bordering the world-renowned Masai Mara National Reserve.

Arguably the world’s greatest safari destination, the Mara boasts thriving populations of zebra, impala, gazelle, wildebeest, buffalo, and elephant on the plains; lions, leopards, hyenas, and cheetahs on the prowl; plus hippos and crocodiles lurking in the Mara and Talek Rivers.

Explore the Mara with shared day and night game drives in 4×4 vehicles, guided bush walks led by Maasai warriors, bush meals, sundowners, and picnic excursions.

  We wanted to go on a safari for our honeymoon but after speaking to many uk based companies we was left disheartened with the lack on options they provided for itinerary and accommodation. So we done a lot of research online and found Raymond at Great Image Expedition, nothing was to much trouble everything was completely bespoke and exactly how we dream it to be. There was no pressure what so ever and we was completely confident with paying for our trip with a Tanzania based company. Our guides Godlistern & Simba was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and very respectful of the animals and their country. I would 1000% recommend this company for your next safari in Tanzania!

 Verified Great Image Expedition is the best local talent
Great Image Expedition isn’t just another tour company, it’s what a Tanzania experience should be. What makes them stand out is their local connection. They use local guides and experts who actually know Tanzania, its people, its wildlife, and its culture. That local knowledge creates experiences you simply can’t get from a company operating from the outside. From incredible safari moments to authentic cultural experiences, every detail felt personal, genuine, and thoughtfully planned. Their team didn’t just show us Tanzania, they connected us to Tanzania. If you want luxury, adventure, authenticity, and experiences that go beyond the typical tourist itinerary, Great Image Expedition is the company to book.

  We were referred to Great Image Expeditions through our photographer when we were planning our elopement, and unfortunately, while parts of our experience were amazing, our overall experience with the company has been extremely disappointing.

Our safari was fantastic, and Humphrey was absolutely incredible. He made the experience memorable, and the accommodations were also great. Unfortunately, our experience with the company itself has been a completely different story.

We have been trying to get money that is owed to us from Raymond for almost two months now. What should have been a simple matter has turned into an exhausting cycle of excuses, delays, and what feels like being given the runaround. We have repeatedly been told different things and are still waiting for the money we are owed.

That experience has really overshadowed what should have been an amazing overall trip.

If I knew then what I know now about climbing Kilimanjaro, I would choose a different company. There are companies that offer better amenities and, based on our experience, a much better overall customer experience.

I’m disappointed because we had such an incredible experience with Humphrey on safari, which makes the way the financial issue has been handled even more frustrating. I hope Raymond eventually makes this right, but after almost two months of excuses and games, it has become difficult to have any confidence in the company.

 Verified Exceptional Service from Start to Finish
We went to Tanzania for our honeymoon, and Raymond from Great Image Expedition made the entire experience so easy. He planned our whole trip and took care of every detail, so we could simply enjoy it. For our safari, we were with Humpher, whose knowledge, experience, and passion made the adventure truly unforgettable. We learned so much and had an incredible time. We had an amazing experience with Great Image Expedition from start to finish and couldn’t recommend them more!
