Simply one of the best safari experiences, this migration safari to Grumeti River in the western corridor of the Serengeti takes advantage of the great migration when the area is bursting with wildlife, including nomadic predators from other drier parts of the Serengeti visiting this popular area to ensure their own survival. Alternatively, join one of our exclusive Serengeti photo safari tours designed specifically for nature and photography enthusiast wishing to explore and photograph wildlife as well as the stunning scenery of one of the best destinations for wildlife photography on earth - The Serengeti National Park, and surrounds. 

The Ngorongoro Crater offers some of the greatest wildlife viewing and photography opportunities to one of the world’s most astonishing and renowned natural wonders. The vastness and beautiful setting of this distinctive eco-system are truly overwhelming and the best place to visit. This wildlife safari provides one of the best opportunities in Africa to view black rhino, which tends to spend their time on the crater floor. Another big draw is the dense population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals and small cats. We will also visit the hippo pool near the Mandusi Swamp, Lake Magadi in the southwestern corner which is one of the main features of the crater, the Lerai forest and more. 

Tarangire National Park - Only a few wildlife sanctuaries anywhere in the continent are able to offer characteristically African natural environments of the kind to be seen throughout this national park. The woodlands are dotted with gigantic baobabs trees and some of the most essential icons of Africa’s wildlife can be found easily; plenty of migratory mammals typical of the plains, big herds of elephants and buffalos as well as the big cats and mighty predators.
