How do you combine a dream African safari and a great fundraising opportunity?

 You follow in the footsteps of Timothy Jackson on a luxury safari to Tanzania. 

“I have designed this safari for 12 to 15 guests, so I can donate the profits directly to the Okanagan Symphony,” said Jackson, a safari guide, teacher and symphony member

Jackson hopes to raise between $6,240 and $7,800 U.S. for the symphony.

The target departure date is Feb. 5 to 20, and anyone interested in the safari must contact Jackson by Nov. 30. 

The safari will spend 16 days in Tanzania with options to extend the tour to Zanzibar and Mahale National Park. 

Zanzibar’s capital is located on the island of Unguja, known as Zanzibar City, and its historic centre known commonly as Stone Town is a World Heritage Site. 

Mahale is famous for containing some of the last remaining wild chimpanzees habituated to humans; walking safaris take you into their Eden. 

Participants will fly to Mount Kilimanjaro International Airport and fly out from Dar es Salaam located on the coast. 

The safari is priced to include everything, except for your international flights, some optional walking safaris, and the evening meal in Arusha where you have a choice of going to various restaurants.

“Your dream safari to Tanzania includes carefully selected accommodations in prime locations so you can experience the best wildlife, the best views and the best service,” said Jackson.
