  • Kilimanjaro

    Undoubtedly the Kilimanjaro day walk will ignite the adventurous spirit within your students as they walk through the African bush. With magnificent views of Kenya you will pass through farmland and forest before trekking up the slopes of Africa's highest mountain.

  • Ngorongoro Crater

    In the confines of the immense unbroken caldera of Ngorongoro are an estimated 30,000 animals including: elephants, lions, cheetahs and herds of buffalo. This conservation area of natural significance is a fascinating example of African bio-diversity and will help groups understand the need for community and environmental research projects

  • Serengeti National Park

    The Serengeti is one of the best known wildlife areas in the world and host to the annual migration of wildebeest as well as 3,000,000 other animals. Several groups have a vested interest in the area including: the Maasai, conservationists, tourists and the Tanzanian government. A particularly significant natural area, Olduvia Gorge, is said to represent one of the most important prehistoric sites in the world

  • Lake Manyara

    Lake Manyara National Park is a small but scenic safari park, excellent for bird watching and a good area to find elephants, as well as the potential excitement of spotting the legendary Lake Manyara tree-climbing lion. 

  • Lake Natron

    The lake is fed by the Ewaso Ng'iro River and due to evaporation high levels of salt and minerals encourage salt-loving microorganisms, flora and fauna to make this their home. However, the levels of salinity are under threat from logging projects and a planned hydroelectric power plant which will increase the fresh water levels.

  • Maasai

    Indigenous to Africa and semi-nomadic, the Maasai population is one of the best known ethnic groups on the Continent. Their distinctive customs, dress and ability to farm in arid landscapes make their lifestyle incredibly interesting to visiting school groups

  • The Great Rift Valley

    This continuous natural trench runs from northern Syria to central Mozambique and is approximately 3,700 miles in length. Your group will be able to study the geography, fossils and tectonics of the area as they pass through the lands of the Masai onto the famous Ngorongoro Crater. 

  • Arusha

    Standing at 14,980 feet Mount Meru dominates the Arusha skyline and thanks to the city's location, on the southern slopes of the mountain, temperatures and humidity are kept to a pleasant temperature. Arusha is a relatively modern city with a population of just over 1 million and projects such as the Arusha Children's Trust offer a rewarding opportunity to get actively involved with the school and the local community.
