Fodor's Expert Review Africa Serendipity

This New York–based company has excellent Africa-based operators and specializes in Kenya and Tanzania exclusively. Although they offer suggested itineraries, the trip is ultimately custom designed for the client and dependent on the time of the year and budget. Clients often combine Kenya and Tanzania into one trip. Africa Serendipity is flexible, as it offers prospective clients what they wish and at a price that meets their budget.

Destinations: Kenya and Tanzania and their coastal islands. Popular packages: Serengeti and/or Masai Migration, 12–14 days, from $6,100. A beach escape can be added to the end of any safari. Philanthropy: They have no direct involvement with any charities but the ground outfitters they use only employ local residents and are involved in community schemes. What They Do Best: Kenya and Tanzania. Their focus on these two countries truly makes them experts.
