2018 Trip with Eric Powers: Maasai, Safari, AND Orphaned Baby Elephants in this Tour.

Here is the Itinerary for this trip. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1q1nChpg-GoqWR94T7_rEcOsVy4XsX00D/view?usp=sharing

We leave the day after Thanksgiving November 2018 and the trip is 13 days / 12 nights, but remember it takes a day to get there and a day to get back!

2019 Trip: A repeat of the famous Kenya-Tanzania-Zanzibar Whirlwind Africa Safari Tour!!

When the packet is completed we will link to "Complete Trip Packet" button above. The likely price is around $6,899... remember, it is a full 14 days and you get to travel ALL OVER, see so much, experience so much, and get so close to wildlife. If you shop around, you'll see that our price, while it SEEMS expensive, is still way way less than other ecotours of similar length and scope. So you know you getting real value for your money. Plus, you get 2 wildlife biologists with you at all times!

The trip is a GO!

Video: Chief Joseph and the Maasai Village

12/29/2016

We found this neat video on YouTube that will give you a glimpse into the experience we will be immersing you at Chief Joseph's Maasai Village. The school is now built and we will be meeting some of the children that we are sponsoring to attend school there. Also, you are encouraged to develop and teach a simple lesson to the students if you wish...a true cultural exchange to maximize your experience and increase the positive impact of our visit. Enjoy!

Your Connection To Nature

* All transportation within Africa, hotels and accommodations, meals, park fees and tips are included! The Ecotour starts and ends in Nairobi so you've just got to get there and then we've got you covered!

The Ecotour starts and ends in Nairobi, KENYA. Officially, we start at noon on August 1 and end at noon on August 12. We will pickup and dropoff you at Nairobi Airport on those dates. Our trips include all food, lodging, activities, and transportation except flights to/from Nairobi, Kenya.

Compare the cost to other 2-week Africa trips of similar style and you won't find one anywhere near our price! We are simply the best because we include everything, including tips and all activities. Plus our involvement with the local communities is extensive and meaningful. You will learn about their daily lives as if you are one of the family! So grab that water, collect those sticks, herd those cattle...because here we go!
