Safari and Kilimanjaro


Back to All Events

STATUS: CONFIRMED

It's been talked about many times over the years, but now it's finally happening — the first proper DCx Tanzania Adventure!

We'll be journeying on an eight-day safari through the most storied areas of Africa — the Serengeti Plains — then we'll have another eight days to trek up to the Roof of Africa, Mount Kilimanjaro. (You can join one or the other, or both.)

  • Safari: November 4-11, 2023

  • Kilimanjaro: November 12-21, 2023

  • Optional Zanzibar Post-trip: November 21~ (up to you!)

We already have eight people signed up and are looking for up to four three more DCers to join us on this awesome adventure.

SAFARI HIGHLIGHTS

  • Eight days of safari through three National Parks: Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, and Serengeti (including arrival and departure days)

  • Luxury lodges and tented camps (the internet will be accessible during much of the trip)

  • See all of the animals that you saw in The Lion King (minus Timon, as meerkats are only in southern Africa), including The Big Five

  • The animals often get up close and personal — no binoculars are needed here

  • Delicious meals throughout we can cater to food allergies and preferences)

  • Expert guides that have 20+ years of experience in wildlife tracking

KILIMANJARO HIGHLIGHTS

  • Six days of moderate hiking (6-7 hours or so a day) towards the top of the mountain (19,341 ft/5895 m), and one and a half days down. (No technical mountaineering experience needed.)

  • The very best tents, pillows, and sleeping pads to keep you comfortable on the way up (you can bring your own sleeping bag or rent one from us for $50 total)

  • An expert team to guide you, cook meals, and carry all of your gear (you just carry your day pack)
