City Tours

A city tour is the perfect way to begin or end a safari, offering a taste of Africa's vibrant urban life and rich history before or after the wilderness. Each of our gateway cities tells its own story. Kampala, Uganda's lively capital, pulses with energy, from the Gaddafi National Mosque and the royal Kasubi Tombs to the bustle of Owino Market and roadside food stalls. Kigali, by contrast, is famously clean, calm and green, where a visit to the moving Genocide Memorial is a deeply important experience, balanced by craft cooperatives, coffee shops and hilltop views. Nairobi uniquely pairs a modern skyline with wildlife on its doorstep, alongside the Giraffe Centre and the David Sheldrick elephant orphanage, while the historic Swahili island of Stone Town in Zanzibar is a labyrinth of carved doors, spice markets and centuries of trading history. Led by a knowledgeable local guide, a city tour adds real human context to your journey, connecting you with the culture, people and stories behind the landscapes.
