Our Signature Journeys
In-depth journeys with sustainable impact
At Kipenzi Safari, our Signature Journeys go beyond the traditional holiday experience. These special journeys take you to destinations where we have built deep and lasting relationships with the local communities. We are committed to supporting these communities, providing employment, and contributing to their well-being. These Signature Experiences can also be integrated as 'building blocks' into your customized trip. Here are two of our unforgettable Signature Journeys:
Longido - The Ultimate Maasai Experience...
In Longido, where more than 20 years ago one of our founders volunteered as an English teacher for Maasai guides, we offer an authentic immersion into Maasai culture. Visit the traditional Maasai boma, stay overnight in the midst of the Maasai community, and discover the sacred Maasai cave for 'Orpul'. For adventurers, Mt. Longido offers a day climb with breathtaking views. Stay overnight at the top in a small tent and wake up to the magical sunrise.
From Longido, we make day trips to the Enduimet Community Wildlife area, where wild elephants and other animals live in their natural habitat. For those seeking a deeper connection with nature, we offer an 8-hour hike in the Longido Mountain Forest Reserve, followed by an overnight stay in a bush fly camp. A day trip to the mysterious Lake Natron with its flamingos, swimmable waterfalls, and the active volcano Oldonyo Lengai completes this journey.
Usambara Mountains Experience - Great Views & Pure Nature
Our eco-lodge in the Usambara Mountains serves as your base for exploring this enchanting area. Enjoy breathtaking vistas, discover rich biodiversity during beautiful hikes, and explore pristine rainforests and waterfalls. Hiking trails lead you through picturesque villages, while you have the opportunity to experience a safari in Mkomazi Park with its rhinos.
Experience the deep-rooted culture of the Sambaa people through cooking classes, visits to local development projects, and interaction with the community.
