A Special Invite
We invite you to join us on a magical and inspiring 10-day sojourn through the Motherland’s eastern region. This tour to Kenya and Ethiopia will immerse you in rich cultural heritage and breathtaking natural beauty. We’ll experience a Swahili worship service, share in the blessing of serving a Nairobi community in need, and witness God’s majestic creatures in their natural habitat at the renowned Masai Mara National Reserve.

Luxury Safari
The Masai Mara is at the top of most safari wish lists. This massive, picturesque reserve is the location for both BBC’s “Big Cat Diary” and Disney's “African Cats.” It is also the location of one of the natural wonders of the world, the annual "Great Migration" of wildebeests and other animals crossing the Mara River en masse.
A gloriously beautiful, wildlife-rich savannah landscape, the Masai Mara is often described by biologists as one of the last remaining places free of modern human meddling. It is also a region where the traditionally dressed Masai people still herd their cattle and goats in a lifestyle that has changed very little over the centuries. Together with the Serengeti National Park, the Masai Mara forms Africa's most diverse and spectacular ecosystem, which is why many consider it the top safari viewing location in the world.

Don’t Wait
Sign up now, as space is limited. We look forward to sharing with you on this amazing adventure in one of the most beautiful regions in the world!
