There can be no doubt that the Serengeti is THE quintessential wildlife destination in East Africa!!! This is the Africa of numerous wildlife documentaries – you can expect vast savannah grasslands dotted with flat-topped thorn trees, the famed Wildebeest migration and abundant big game and birding. The Serengeti easily lives up to its fabled reputation and we could not recommend it more highly.
WHY WE LOVE THE SERENGETI
The great Wildebeest migration – dubbed “the greatest show on Earth“.
Superb predator viewing.
Full complement of savannah story-book mammals.
Endless grassy plains reminiscent of a bygone era.
Some of Africa’s most sensational lodges.
A bird list of over 500 species, many of these outrageously colourful and easily observable.
Please feel free to contact us should you wish to travel to Serengeti / Tanzania.

A TASTER OF OUR FAVOURITE SERENGETI TENTED CAMPS
Singita Sabora Tented Camp
Romantically reminiscent of a forgotten time, no luxury is spared at this beautiful (permanent) tented camp. This is glamping at its best in the open plains of the Serengeti – you are truly immersed in nature with no element of comfort sacrificed.
andBeyond Serengeti Under Canvas Camp
This stylish camp is perfect for those who prefer something simple yet very comfortable. We love the fact that this camp is mobile and follows the migration. Expect hot bucket showers and starry nights around a camp fire.
