Whenever it comes to Africa, tourists have
never been deceived because the beauty of this place wins every one’s heart. Be
it any part of Africa, the place tries it’s best to connect the living entity,
which is us to the nature and it also has been
successful in doing it to a very
great extent. Today I am going to talk about the East African side tourism. What
is the Eastern Africa known for? For those who do not have a fair idea, let me
tell you that it is most famous for the animals which it serves as home to and
the safari adventures.
Since ages the legacy of safari has been
carried out by the natives of the place. The East African region altogether is
so huge that one will not be able to cover it up within a span of four – five days.
It needs real time. For the convenience of the travelers, the safari has been
divided into mainly some broad categories. The major ones are Tanzania Safari,
the Kenya Safari, the Day Trip, the Gorilla Tracking Safari and the Tailor –
made Safari. Among these sub categories also are various divisions available. It
fairly depends upon the budget of the travelers as to how long they want to stay. Options like
a stay for two days one night, three days two nights, four days three nights or
five days are very easily availed by the
travelers.
Beginning with the Kenya Safari, which is the
most frequently opted for by the tourists, Kenya is the treasure land of
Safari. Kenya not only provides provisions for road safaris but also for the
air safaris. Moreover Kenya has many beaches located as well, so they have
provisions for beach holidays and trips as well. Place like Masai, Mara,
Mombasa, Nakuru Lake and Amboseli Lake are very prominent when it comes to Kenya
Safari. There is a national park called the Meru national Park which has the
rarest of the rare species of animals in it.
Tortilis Camp is another prominent feature
which they provide. Then besides these things, they let the tourists enjoy the
trekking, they even make them play various adventurous games. The Tanzania Safari,
most of the packages come in collaboration with the Kenya Safari. The best
possible reason could be these places falling so close to each other. So the Tanzania
Safari includes all those places which the Kenya Safari did and in addition it has places like Isebenia,
Serengeti, Arusha, Namanga, Amboseli, Taita and many more. This safari includes
hilly tracking which at times to turn out to be difficult for
people who are not very used it.
The next segment that I am going to talk about
is cute an d adventurous both. It is the gorilla
Tracking Safari. It mainly
includes places like Kivu lake and Kigali Lake. This safari also takes the
visitors to the Volcanoes National Park. The Volcanoes Mountain is known as a
heaven for the mountain gorillas which are found here. There is some amount of
money which is charged by the Volcano National Park Authority to view the Mountain Gorillas. There is a
division made on the basis of citizenship and designation, both. At the same
time spending some amount of money to see the amazing mountain gorilla in
return is not actually some amount of money to see the amazing mountain
gorillas in return is not actually
a very big deal.
If thought carefully, one day trips will not be
enough to explore the beauty of Africa and its wildlife. Despite this fact,, the
tourism companies over here have introduced an option of one day tourism,
keeping in mind all the necessary places which would just leave the tourists
enchanted. The one day trips mainly include those in Nakuru Lake, Shimba hills
and Tsayo East. Tsayo East is one of the oldest National Parks in Kenya. The National
Park has been named after the Tsayo River which just flows next to it, in the same
region. Africa as we know is well connected to the different continents of the
world through airways. So reaching Africa is not big deal. Once a tourist
reaches Africa the tourism package which they select the officers from those
companies make provisions for the picking up of tourists. A trip to East Africa
is important because it firstly allows the tourists to know the beauty of
wildlife which exists in our world and which we barely get to see due to the
growing population and pollution with it.
