How to Plan an Affordable-ish Kenya Safari

How to Plan an Affordable-ish Kenya Safari

Has a Kenya safari been on your bucketlist since you first ever watched the Lion King? It was for me too. Finally, I did it, and it was one of the most amazing experiences I’ve had! But I had a few concerns that are probably similar to yours about going. Namely, how in the heck to even do it! All I’d ever seen posted about Kenya safaris were expensive lodges with...
