Sharing a few snaps of the sites and sights we found.

A Day in Dar

11 December 2015

Our tour today was "A GLIMPSE OF DAR ES SALAAM." Our first stop was Mnazi Moja Park followed by a tour of Mwenge Carvers' market where craftsmen were working on ebony carvings. We then visited a gallery devoted to Tinga Tinga, a colourful form of art unique to East Africa. There was then a change of focus at the Village Museum where we learnt more about the culture of the 120 different indigenous tribes. Finally before heading back to the ship we stopped off at the National Museum.

Amazing Amboseli Adventure

 9 December 2015

When we go cruising with Regent we usually take the tours that are included in the price of the cruise but on occasion we splash out on a premium tour as we did in Mombasa, Kenya today. 

On disembarking the ship we were driven to the airport and allocated a seat in a light plane for a trip to Amboseli National Park where would participate in a couple of safari drives, have lunch at a lodge within the park and enjoy some views of Mount Kilamanjaro. Unfortunately the mountain was hiding in the clouds but the other elements of our first ever African safari were first rate. We will definitely go on safari again after this experience.

Ready for takeoff?

Aye, aye, Captain

First sighting

There were hundreds of elephants

Happy cruisers heading back to the ship
