Plus, it comes with luxurious beds, linen and professional chefs to serve up the freshest food.
Serengeti: Watch out for local wildlife as we head to our camp, which is bang in the middle of these endless plains. Could the location be any more epic?

You'll also learn about the art of Makonde carving in this little town that's home to around 120 Maasai tribes - all with their own unique language and customs.

Trip of a lifetime! Made even better by our expert guide Jabiri or ‘JB’ who was very accommodating, knowledgeable, entertaining and above all, very professional. We also had a great group which helped the long car drives go fast!
All the Tanzanian locals who worked at the several accomodation places, restaurants and other centres we visited were also lovely!
The Masai Village we visited did feel a bit rushed and somewhat of a tourist trap, nonetheless was still a cool experience looking back.
Overall, Otherwise the trip not only met our expectations but also exceeded them in every way. Highly recommend!

The Tanzania Safari was an all round amazing experience. I was just so shocked by the sheer amount of animals I saw, I mean of course you go on a safari expecting to see wild animals but I thought maybe we would drive for an hour and see one elephant and then drive a bit longer and catch a glimpse of a giraffe... But I was so wrong! Immediately we were greeted with so many animals. Elephants within touching distance, herds of upwards of 20 zebras, giraffes, and so much more. I saw 4 out of the BIG 5 - only missing out on a rhino but four out of five is a great result. Our guide was amazing. Such a kind and informative man. He was always smiling and really takes pleasure in showing people around his country. Tanzania Safari was an excellent experience from start to finish - the animals being the highlight but the accommodations, all of the meals and all of the things we were able to do were also all so great. The food was delicious. The hot air balloon safari was a stand out thing we got to do, and while this cost a little extra, it was worth every dollar. I enjoyed my Tanzania Safari very much and I would highly recommend this trip to anyone considering an African Safari.

A Tanzania safari had been a dream of mine for years and somehow, the experience exceeded every expectation.
From the warm, welcoming people to the incredible food and unique way of life, everything was different from what I imagined, but in the best way.
What took my breath away was how close we got to the wildlife, I was genuinely stunned. Seeing lions, elephants, and giraffes just meters away felt surreal.
This journey wasn’t just a trip it was a once in a lifetime adventure I’ll never forget

This was the most amazing trip! It’s extremely well organised, the accommodation is good quality, all food is included and there’s plenty of access to water throughout the trip. Our guide JB was incredible! The best guide we have ever had on a tour! He was so kind, helpful and knowledgeable. He easily arranged our transport before and after the trip. He made sure we saw lots of animals and he always got us in good positions to see the animals. We had the most amazing time- it was just perfect!
