This is honestly one of the best proposals I've ever received back from a DMC in terms of level to detail and standard of itinerary. I love the online digital version, it is so helpful and really does my my job easier. THANK YOU GREEN ROUTE AFRICA
It was a fantastic trip to Africa and the feedback from the group, even whilst we were there, was amazing. The team was awesome and it meant I was probably the most relaxed EVER on site for an event.
Nice to hear from my client that their trip was the best ever! Working with Green Route is always a privilege and a real pleasure.

OUR Destination
TANZANIA
Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Kilimanjaro, Zanzibar… all packed into one country. Resonating with hints of the wild and exotic, these destinations alone are reason enough to justify packing your bag and heading on a life changing getaway.
Bagamoyo, Tabora, Ujiji – stops on the 19th-century caravan routes into the heart of what was then an unknown continent. Mafia and Pangani – once famed ports of call for merchant ships from the Orient. Kilwa – linchpin of a far-flung Indian Ocean trading network. Kigoma, Kalema, Kipili, Kasanga – bustling outposts along the remote Lake Tanganyika shoreline. Selous – Africa’s largest protected area. Ruaha and Katavi – insider tips for serious safari-goers.
KENYA
Synonymous with majestic African scenery, wildlife, and the traditional semi-nomadic people who roam here, Kenya, like Tanzania, holds its own as a MICE destination
Kenya offers abundant travel options from mountains and deserts, colourful tribal culture, beaches and coral reefs, and some of Africa’s best wildlife attractions. Kenya is often referred to as Africa in microcosm.
Stunning landscapes set the scene, from Kakamega’s rainforests to Indian Ocean beaches by way of Mt Kenya National Park; the rolling grasslands of the Masai Mara to searing deserts on the shores of the Jade Sea; with The Rift Valley, home to Hell’s Gate National Park, cleaving a massive gash through it all.
UGANDA
Uganda is known as the place where the lush West African jungle meets the wide-open plains of the East African savannah. In this uniquely diverse destination one can see lions prowling the bushland in the morning and track chimpanzees through the rainforest by the afternoon. The very next day one can navigate tropical channels teeming with hippos and crocodiles before setting off into the misty mountains to visit the majestic mountain gorillas.
The pride of Uganda remains Lake Victoria, the second largest lake in the world and also the source of the river Nile, the longest and the second largest river in the world.
RWANDA
Rwanda is a small country in East Africa. The Democratic Republic of Congo lies to its west, Uganda to its north and Burundi to the south. Rwanda also shares its eastern border with Tanzania.
Rwanda has three official languages: Kinyarwanda, French and English. The majority of the population speaks Kiswahili and Swahili is sometimes used in commercial centers. Rwanda’s currency is the Rwandan franc (RFr), which is sometimes also abbreviated to ‘Frw’. Rwanda is known as the land of the thousand hills and visitors will truly understand why when visiting this beautiful country.
