African Hiking Vacations for Nature Travelers

Information on our Hiking Safaris (Page 1/2)

The original African hiking vacations were a genuine interaction with nature. The travelers of this by-gone era had the best of both worlds, they saw a lot of game and they put their feet on the African soil, had their clothes covered with the African dust and we can visualize them having a sandwich on a scenic spot where the savanna spreads for ever. What they lacked in photo gear they made up with quality time on hiking safaris and their memoirs are a result of this.

Natural Habitat Adventures, Africa Kenya Vacations

Enter the modern-day African safari package tours where the aim is to whistle-stop in all the Kenyan parks: Masai Mara -> Nakuru -> Aberdares -> Samburu -> Mt. Kenya -> Naivasha -> Amboseli -> Tsavo, all in a flat 2 weeks. Unfortunately for travelers on these types of package safaris, with their line of vision limited to the pop-roof & the window of the safari bus, they have to do things anti-Hemingway’s style: quickly capture every possible incident on hi-tech camera/video and then see the safari in their homes as there is just no time to "take-in & absorb" their surroundings when being rushed.

For nature travelers seeking genuine hiking safaris, Ontdek, the leader of walking holidays in Kenya since 1996, rewinds the safari clock for you by designing guided African hiking vacations that best capture the spirit of a by-gone era. We keep our clients away from mass tourism on hiking safaris with easy to see plains game such as giraffes, zebras, gazelles, warthogs, Colobus monkeys, baboons etc.
