Few places on Earth stir the imagination quite like East Africa. Vast golden savannas stretching to the horizon, snow-capped mountains rising above elephant-filled plains, endless herds of wildebeest and zebra, and some of the most spectacular birdlife on the planet combine to create the quintessential African safari experience.
This unforgettable journey explores the very best of Kenya and Tanzania, from the elephant-rich woodlands of Tarangire and the wildlife-packed floor of the Ngorongoro Crater to the legendary Serengeti, where immense herds roam beneath vast African skies. We continue north into Kenya to experience the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro in Amboseli, the forests of Mount Kenya, and the arid wilds of Samburu, home to a remarkable suite of birds and mammals found nowhere else.
Alongside East Africa’s legendary mammals, we will seek out some of the continent’s most charismatic birds. Secretarybirds stalk the grasslands, Southern Ground Hornbills stride purposefully across the savanna, Kori Bustards command the plains, and brilliant Superb Starlings and lovebirds illuminate the acacia woodlands. Wetlands host flamingos, cranes and storks, while the arid bush country produces a dazzling cast of dry-country specialists, including the unforgettable Vulturine Guineafowl and Golden-breasted Starling.
Designed to maximize both birding and wildlife viewing, this tour combines world-class safari destinations, comfortable accommodations and expertly guided exploration. From elephant herds beneath Kilimanjaro and predators on the Serengeti plains to Secretarybirds, Southern Ground Hornbills and brilliant Superb Starlings, every day promises memorable encounters in one of the world's great natural theatres.
Join us for an extraordinary adventure through the heart of East Africa, where spectacular birds, iconic mammals and breathtaking landscapes combine to create a safari experience unlike any other.

This was our first Rockjumper tour and we had such a good time, we have already booked a second tour. Rockjumper is an incredibly well-organized group and we didn't have any travel or housing-related issues during the entire trip. I'm sure Rockjumper is not the least expensive tour group you can travel with, but in this case I believe you get what you pay for. Our guide Quinton "Paul" Josop was amazing. His knowledge of birds was incredible and his enthusiasm was contagious. He was a lot of fun to travel with. In fact he was such a good guide we chose our second trip specifically because he was also a guide for that trip. We can't wait to travel again!
Greg de Klerk was a wonderful leader. He knew exactly how to lead this relaxed tour. He always made sure that the needs of everyone in group were being met. He also demonstrated incredible knowledge of both the birds and the animals. I would go anywhere with him on another related tour.
The tour was great. The administration pre-tour was not. We received an itinerary that was backwards - starting in Arusha, whereas we started in Nairobi. We didn’t find out about where we were staying until very late, which made our own arrangements difficult. There were a lot of confusion about where we were staying in Nairobi, and we booked the BOMA Inn for two nights prior, thinking that was where we were staying but it wasn’t. But it was too late to change it to the BOMA. The itinerary featured a lot of driving which was wearing. The first jeep we had for Kenya was sub-standard. There were literally bits falling off the vehicle. The first thing we had to do is get new windscreen wipers put on which took about 30 min. The back seats were very tight and the cushion on one was ripped and uncomfortable. When we got to Tanzania we had a brand new vehicle which was much better. I don’t agree with treating the drivers differently to the guide. I think this is a very colonial approach and segregating them to different accommodation and meals is discriminatory, given the work they do and the long days they work. On the positive side both drivers were excellent, particularly Kevin, the first driver who was an excellent birder. Ryan was an excellent guide. He was highly organised, helped us all to see the birds and was always pleasant and friendly. We would travel with him again. The accommodation was excellent, as was the food. Rockjumper is an expensive tour company relative to some others. It was our first time with Rockjumper and we would consider travelling with you again. Thanks to Ryan and the drivers for a very memorable experience. Suse
I really appreciated Ryan as a guide, he worked for us 110% to maximize our observations.
Our guide Ryan was very familiar with the birds and their songs, he is very meticulous and does an excellent job on Ebird.
