For honeymooners and everyone who appreciates special times with special friends. Enjoy a luxury Tanzania safari staying in 'out of Africa' style Tented Camps located in stunning locations.
Visit Tanzania during the Serengeti migration season and experience the greatest wildlife spectacle on earth.
Visit Lake Manyara and Tarangire located within the shadow of the Great Rift Valley escarpment. Crossing Ngorongoro Conservation Area, change location to the Serengeti. Enjoy starry nights - remote comfort under the shadow of giant Kopje rocks, and exhilarating days - watching the wildlife action. Leave the Serengeti with en-route game driving, to reach your Tented Camp near to the rim of Ngorongoro Crater (a giant caldera of 265 sq. km). The 610m drop from the crater rim is a stunning preview of the safari to come.
End each Tanzania safari day relaxing, close to nature, in comfortable surroundings before flying home, or on to another exciting Tanzania adventure.
