We have decided to use Gametrackers as tour operator and hope that it will be a wise decision.

The most interesting tour in our opinion is GTC 12. You will visit Nakuru, Masai Mara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro during a 10 days long tour.

The travel cost below was estimated for October in 2012.
It is not possible to keep all costs up to date. The source and date are therefore specified in parentheses for each cost.
( Internet YYYY-MM-DD / Guidebook name & publish date / Travel YYYY-MM-DD )
Be aware of the fact that real prices can be almost twice as much as those specified in guide books.
A return ticket from Gothenburg to Nairobi cost from 5.240 SEK but with more than one stop, long flight times and arrival in the middle of the night. KLM has better flights but more expensive.
KLM: Gothenburg 06:20 => Nairobi 20:15
KLM: Nairobi 08:15 => Gothenburg 22:30
The total price is 6.335 SEK ( Price from Reseguiden 2012-01-04 )
The bad thing is that you arrive after sunset so arrange a pick-up with the hostel/hotel!
