My trip itinerary begins with a 5d safari in Kenya, possibly Masai Mara, then 4d tracking mountain gorillas in Park des Vulcanes in Rwanda, then Tanzania for a Kilimanjaro track for 6d, then possibly the Kenyan coast.

My question lies in whether or not travel to all these places will take multiple days? How i should go about booking domestic African airlines? Things of that sort.

I have never been to Africa so this is me winging it, hence, any advice will help.

Thank you

If you are flying it is very straightforward.

Nairobi - Kigali daily direct flights with either Kenya Airways or Rwandair
Kigali - Kili direct flights on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays with Rwandair

Rwandair and Kenya Airways operate a code share arrangement so their flights are inter changeable. Both have websites or call them if you don't fancy purchasing over the web. Kenya Airways produce 'e' tickets and will email you your itinerary, Rwandair may also now have upgraded to 'e', if not you will be able to pick up your paper tickets from their desk in Nairobi JKO.

You can either fly or drive to the Mara. Lots of flights back from Kili to various places in Kenya including the coast.

yes travel between these places is realistic without flying But you need to think about the amount of time you have available. cuase overland travel can be slow old process. But it can also be great fun.
