The 6 day Tanzania Mshikamano Safari connects you with the spectacular wildlife of Tanzania in a unique adventure. Start with a trip to Lake Manyara National Park, where you can spot the fascinating tree-climbing lions and colourful flamingos on the shores of the lake. This region is a paradise for birdwatchers, with over 400 different species, and promises you impressive encounters with giraffes, elephants and buffaloes.
Continue to the Serengeti, where you will witness one of the world’s greatest natural wonders: Millions of wildebeest and zebras move through the vast plains in a breathtaking migration. Watch majestic lions, elegant cheetahs, and huge herds of elephants as you see the dynamic wildlife in action. This journey culminates in the majestic Ngorongoro Crater, the largest intact volcanic crater in the world, which offers you an impressive kaleidoscope of animals such as rhinos, lions, and hyenas.

As a co-founder, I always look forward to the first time my guests look out into the Serengeti and see the scale of the migration. It's incredible to see the excitement build as we spot the first lions in the distance, majestically roaming the plains.
