Experience the best of East Africa on this unforgettable 8-day luxury safari tour.
As your dedicated luxury travel advisor, I am thrilled to introduce an odyssey that marries the two most profound wildlife encounters on the planet.
This Sanctuary Game Viewing & Gorillas Luxury Safari Holiday Vacation is a masterfully curated journey across the borders of Kenya and Uganda.
We begin in the golden, predator-rich plains of the Maasai Mara before flying into the emerald, mist-shrouded peaks of Bwindi to find the endangered Mountain Gorilla.
On this Sanctuary Game Viewing & Gorillas Luxury Safari Holiday Vacation, “Sanctuary” is more than just a name—it is a promise.
From the glass-fronted suites of Sanctuary Olonana to the unrivaled intimacy of Sanctuary Gorilla Forest Camp (the only lodge located inside the UNESCO World Heritage park), you will enjoy a level of exclusivity that few ever experience.
Whether you are tracking the Big Five by 4×4 or trekking through ancient ferns on foot, this is East Africa at its most evocative.
From the Maasai Mara Game Reserve in Kenya to Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park in Uganda, you will have the opportunity to see some of the most iconic wildlife in the world, including lions, elephants, leopards, rhinos, and gorillas.
