Safari Jeep

An open four-wheel drive or a safari jeep with pop-up roof for hire on request, including driver and fuel. Your driver guide is very knowledgeable and will make sure to give you as much time as you need to ask questions, take pictures and enjoy the incredible landscape.

Excellent Game Drives

The Loliondo Game Controlled Area, adjacent to Serengeti National Park, is teeming with wildlife all year round. Your guide will bring you as close as possible to your favourite animal, as responsible off-road driving is allowed. Changes in scenery will also bring other wildlife in front of your camera. A meal in the middle of the bush, or a drink at sunset on a hill with a beautiful view, make your day complete.

Sundowner walk with the Maasai

From the lodge, you will explore the area with our very knowledgeable Maasai guide. He will entertain you with fun facts. Afterwards, you can relax with a well-deserved drink on top of the hill behind the camp.

Night Game Drive

Take the opportunity to explore the area at night. It is a great feeling to be in this remote and pristine area in the dark. The sounds of all the different animals, the glowing eyes of the nocturnal animals, and the exciting encounter with wildlife at night make it magical. Look out for the Genet cat, Aardvark, Mongoose, Serval, Bushbaby and with a little luck... a Leopard!

Guided bushwalk, ending with a sundowner drink with a view

Together with a TAWA ranger and guide, you can explore the Af rican bush. It is the perfect opportunity to look for the little things, identify and track footprints, examine the droppings of different animals, find interesting insects, observe the abundance of birds, talk about plants and consider the ecosystem. It is also just nice to stretch your legs after many hours in the safari car.

Combi bushwalk, sundowner and night game drive

Combine two activities, and explore the area with two complete different experiences, walk at day-time, drive at night-time.

Game drive north Serengeti-Mara river area

At the right time of year, see the map below, you can witness the most amazing wildlife spectacle in Africa at the Mara River. The Mara River is best known for the legendary wildebeest crossing, a dramatic event seen in countless wildlife documentaries.
One of Tanzania’s best-kept secrets is the fact that almost half of the Mara River is in the northern Serengeti, versus the Maasai Mara’s segment in Kenya. Of course, during the other months, the variety and numbers of animals on the plains remain astonishing.

SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK   -   THE BEST-KNOWN WILDLIFE SANCTUARY IN THE WORLD

Endless plains and stunning savannah

With vast open plains and an abundance of wildlife as far as the eye can see, the Serengeti is a safari maker’s dreamland. As the park is so expansive, it is ideally recommended to spend several days exploring. Serengeti National Park spans across 14,763 square kilometres and is easily the largest and arguably most popular of the Northern Circuit National Parks. The Serengeti is host to the annual Wildebeest migration, when some six million hooves pound the open plains, as more than 200,000 zebra and 300,000 Thomson’s gazelle join the wildebeest’s trek for fresh grazing. Buffalo, elephant, giraffe, lion, hippo and hyena are also frequently sighted throughout the Serengeti.

SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK   -   NORTHERN AREA & MARA RIVER

Northern Serengeti is where the great migration crosses the Mara River
Witness the most amazing wildlife spectacle in Africa at the Mara River. The Mara River is most famous for the legendary wildebeest crossing, a dramatic event, which is featured in countless wildlife documentaries. One of Tanzania’s best- kept secrets is the fact that nearly half of the Mara River is situated in the northern Serengeti versus the Masai Mara’s segment in Kenya. While there are hordes of vehicles just a few miles upriver in the Masai Mara, the Serengeti side is virtually devoid of tourists. Not only the Mara River is an essential part of this area of the Serengeti, but it is also a lush and idyllic spot hidden away in the remote reaches of the north. Many varieties of colourful birds can be found here including kingfishers, hoopoes and rollers. The flourishing resources support some unusual antelope species including Mountain reedbuck and Steenbok. The nearby Larelemangi salt lick is a haven for wildlife and large herds of buffalo and elephant are regular visitors.

SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK   -   CENTRAL AREA / SERONERA

Big cat capital
Serengeti’s Seronera area is located in the south-central region of the park and is well known for the large number of big cats; the lion, leopard and cheetah are often spotted here. However, the elephant, giraffe, hippo, crocodile, buffalo and impala are also well known inhabitants. The area is very popular as it is one of the most likely spots to watch a kill. The landscape is dotted with ‘’kopjes’’, rocky granite or Gneiss outcrops, over 550 million years old and in high favour by some of the cats as look-out points while hunting.

Opt for Beach & Culture on Zanzibar

Zanzibar is the perfect stop after your intensive Safari game drives in mainland Tanzania. The climate in Zanzibar is tropical but not too hot and humid. Zanzibar is a tropical paradise only a short distance away from the equator and all famous national safari parks. It is a place to relax or to find a mix of influences of Arabic and African cultures.

There are many local flights to Zanzibar or try the fast ferry between Dar es Salaam and Zanzibar.

Extension Zanzibar - The jewel of the Indian Ocean

Enjoy the ultimate Beach & Safari Holiday.

There is no better way to end your safari than by spending a few days/week relaxing on the pristine beaches of the exotic Zanzibar Island. Zanzibar is an island of culture, history and art. Stroll through the cobbled alleyways of the historic Stone town and as you pass by one of the many palace ruins and Persian baths it is impossible not to be captivated by the strong Arabian influence and romanticism of the Island. The coastal regions are the perfect places to relax and rejuvenate.

Spend some lazy days along stretches of white sandy beaches, dive into the clear blue waters of the Indian Ocean or explore the underwater world surrounding the island by taking a dive or snorkelling tour. Allow time to stand still as you sip a cool beverage, enjoy the finest of fresh seafood and watch one of the many spectacular sunsets on display.
