Nairobi to Kigali Overland Tours

Package Overview

Game drives in the wilds of the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater as well as The Grumeti with a stop over by Lake Victoria. Trek the endangered mountain gorillas and take time to reflect at the Genocide Memorial in Kigali, Rwanda.

Optional excursions
A recommended typical budget for your optional excursions that you might pay for once in Africa would be: US$70 - US$200

Some clients spend more, some less. The above is a typical estimate selecting from the following main choices during this tour. Do re-check your budget looking at what might tempt you. A friendly reminder as well that the below list provides an approximate guide only for the most popular excursions currently available for this tour. Excursions are operated by local operators and authorities and their pricing is out of our control (April 18)

Spending Money
You will need spending money to cover drinks, lunch, souvenirs and different small incidental costs whilst on tour such as cheap excursions costing under U$20 like a visit to the Maasai in the Serengeti.
Tipping is customary in Africa, so budget for gratuities if you wish for guides or drivers who provide good service such as your guides whilst gorilla trekking. Again it is at your discretion, but your tour leader and driver will appreciate a tip to acknowledge their hard work during your tour.
For some excursions extra transport is needed to get to the start point such as to the gorillas, and lastly some campsites en route also have simple huts or chalets on site. If you feel like a break from camping and youd like an upgrade at some point it is well worth having a little bit of money budgeted accordingly.
The recommended spending money for The Wildlife Encounter (Reverse) is: US$170 - US$210
