Guest Comment

This was our first trip to Africa so I was excited, but also a little apprehensive. I did quite a bit of reading before we went. I read guide books, and everything Karen sent me, as well as materials on the Deeper Africa suggested reading list. So I had certainly done my homework. But it was still so much more than I expected. Everything was so new to us, yet we felt completely comfortable and safe. We were just fascinated – and then it got better from there!

I found it so easy to relax. Before I knew it, I couldn't even remember what day it was and it was great, to just live by the rhythm of the day.

I'll never forget the tented camp on the hillside in the Serengeti. You could see for miles, the trees like an umbrella across the base of the hill. The sun rose just outside the door of our tent. The zebras were braying. And I was stunned by the enormity of the space, the sensation of being suspended deep in nature.

In the end, what impressed me the most was the people. I mean, that wasn't my expectation before the trip, but once we were actually there, that is what became most important. I'll never forget the day we spent with the Mwangaza Children's Project, the chance to visit children in their homes and schools. The children were so eager to learn. People were so kind. That impacted me more than anything else.

Trip Overview

This is an ideal journey for the active traveler who prefers an in-depth and off-track journey. Your private Land Cruiser and private naturalist allow you to set your daily safari activities as you choose. While all of our safaris have up close Land Cruiser wildlife viewing, this safari also offers walking safaris to explore the African bush on foot. After enjoying elephants and much more in Tarangire, visit the famous Ngorongoro Crater. Lions, elephants, buffalo, wildebeest, zebra, and cheetah: the Crater has it all.

Your walking guide is experienced on foot in the bush so you explore in safety. You can schedule in as many active adventures as you want, knowing that you'll be able to go back to your luxury camp and relax. Plus, all of the amazing wildlife Tanzania offers!

This safari is an excellent combination of wilderness and luxury. Your days are spent in the African bush, but your nights are in small, luxurious tented camps that allow a unique safari experience. Surrounded by the open space of the East African savannah, with the sights and sounds of wildlife nearby, you'll be well fed and well cared for in our luxury camps.

Cultural Experiences

Add a day or two of cultural visits and experiences to your safari. A day of cultural visits is generally less expensive than a day spent wildlife viewing (this is because you are not paying the park fees, which can be costly). Review the Ethical Tourism portion of our website for just some of the cultural programs you can include in your safari. Just ask us to work with you to put a few days of cultural experiences into your safari.
