Tanzania Classic Safari: The Great Migration

Our Tanzania Classic Safari has been timed to coincide with the mass migration of the Blue Wildebeest onto the plains of the Serengeti. It is here, on these rich but short-lived feeding grounds, that the females of the 1.5 million-strong herd will drop their calves. Lions, Spotted Hyenas, Black-backed Jackals, Cheetahs, and Leopards patrol the grasslands in search of the newborn, weak, or unwary.

During game drives, we’ll travel in six-seater pop-top Land Cruisers. Everyone has a window seat (and a sliding window) for unrestricted viewing. Each vehicle is driven by one of our team of expert local naturalists, who take great pride in sharing their heritage and their vast knowledge of the wildlife and habitats we encounter.

We’ll visit Tarangire National Park, where we’ll watch the behaviour of large herds of African Elephants feeding among the baobab trees. Based on feedback from our past travellers, we’re increasing our time in the natural amphitheatre of the Ngorongoro Crater in order to spend a full day in this wonderful place where we may have close encounters with the “Big Five”. Our lodge here where we spend two nights sits on the crater rim!
