Due to an injury, our mid-May safari has become a late June/July safari. The rebooking process went smoothly, but of course everything cost more. We did get full credit transferred to the new safari including the air … but at a higher cost. We need new Kenya eTAs because they are only good for ninety days from the date they were ‘issued’. You cannot change the dates. The Tanzania visa is multiple entry and good for a year. The only good news is we got better seats going to Kilimanjaro, and the weather should be better by then. We were also lucky to get the only trip that had availability for t ..read more

We are looking at the Classic Safari and debating whether or not to go in JAN or FEB to get some warmer weather during winter here at home. Have looked through the discussion forum and found one previous post on this topic, but it was never answered after the discussion digressed to airline complaints/issues. Would love to hear from those who have been on safari in Kenya/Tanzaniya during these months and from those who have been at other times as well if you have pros/cons ..read more

Hi! I’ll be making my first trip to Africa, specifically K & T in July. When in Europe, I use ATMs to get local currency. Is that the best way to get local currency for this trip or should I order some in advance? Any advice on how much? The posts on visas, luggage and clothing are very helpful. Thanks! I’m so excited ..read more

We have been wondering which duffels we would get for K&T this year. The answer has arrived. We just got our Ogio Big Dome duffels. They are one or two liters smaller than the old Eagle Creek duffels, which we have many, so we are debating which bags we will use. The Ogio bags are really quite nice, but we use the duffels as primary luggage. We check one with the liquids, and use a rollaboard as wheels for the other duffel as carry-on ..read more

I am concerned about 15lb carryon limit on small flights. My camera backpack with equipment will certainly weigh more. How strict are they and what happens if you are over ..read more
