Serengeti Safaris
One of the most famous national parks on
earth. The great Serengeti plain is home to
such an incredible quantity and diversity of
wildlife, that you're senses will be
overwhelmed. Here you can see the Wildebeest
Migration, where the million-strong wildebeest
herds move across the Serengeti in search of
grazing territory. Zebras, hartebeest and
gazelles follow them for protection. As they
pass through the territories of lion prides,
hyenas, cheetahs and leopards, the predators will
take their pick of food.
Optional Balloon Ride: It is a magical
experience to watch the sun rise over the Serengeti
from a hot air balloon. Complete with a
champagne breakfast, this is a once in a lifetime
treat.
The Serengei National Park
Located near the vast inland sea of Lake
Victoria, and forming part of the unique ecosystem
of the world famous Serengeti National Park, the
reserves cover an area of almost five thousand
square kilometres. Untouched by other tourism or
development, they remain a sanctuary of unspoilt
African wilderness bursting with an incredible
variety of wildlife species. The limited number of
visitors to the reserves will enjoy a safari which
is undoubtedly one of the most authentic, private
and most exciting experiences that it is possible
to enjoy.
Accommodation in the reserves is in small,
permanently sited camps, with spacious ensuite
tents erected on wooden platforms with verandahs
overlooking the endless plains of the Serengeti,
designed and located for privacy. The camp ambience
is one of days gone by, when a safari was an
adventure but one not to be taken without 'home
comforts' such as a personal tent valet, attending
to a guest's every need, and excellent food served
by lamp-light on fine china, silver, crystal and
damask. Picnics and 'alfresco' meals in the bush
ensure that a good days's exploring and game
viewing is not interrupted by having to return to
camp.
Each guest is encouraged to plan the safari of
their choice. Rising early to marvel at the
sunrise, or just enjoying the sounds of the bush
from a comfortable bed; game driving in the
specially designed open-sided 4WD vehicles or
walking accompanied by a professional guide, armed
game scout and tracker; taking a night safari or an
excursion to Lake Victoria for fishing or even a
hot air balloon trip. In fact guests can experience
this natural wilderness on their own terms doing as
much or as little as they please
The Serengeti can be experienced comfortably in
3 to 5 days.
