88. How to Plan a Trip to East Africa
from Shit You Don't Learn in School
In Part 3 of our East Africa series, Steph and Cal walk through how they'd plan a trip to East Africa after spending 26 days across Kenya, Tanzania, and Rwanda. We cover when to go, how to think about safari (luxury, budget, or somewhere in between), gorilla trekking logistics in Rwanda, which non-safari stops were worth it (and which weren't), and practical tips on visas, packing, and money. If a trip to Africa feels off-limits or overwhelming to plan, this one is for you.ResourcesAsilia (safari company)Gorilla Family ListLensrentalsSheldrick Elephant OrphanageKiambethu Tea FarmArusha Coffee Lodge by ElewanaHabesha (Ethiopian Food Nairobi)Cultiva Farm NairobiDisclaimer: This episode and all episodes of the SYDLIS podcast are not affiliated with Steph's work at Nvidia and is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice.
