You can reel off the names of the Big 5, you've imagined yourself driving through the Serengeti in an open-top vehicle, and you've dreamed of going on safari since you first learnt how to say 'Hakuna Matata'. How about we throw in some views of the Great Rift Valley, a visit to an ancient volcano dense with game and predators, and nights camping under the star-swept skies of the Serengeti plains? Now this is the Africa trip you've been waiting for.
Arusha: Support this social enterprise that employs local disabled people with artisanal skills. Watch weaving, glass blowing, beading, paper making and metal work.
Mto Wa Mbu: Stroll through the Maasai Market with vibrant stalls of fruit, handmade shukas and beaded jewellery. And even sample traditional dishes (washed down with banana beer!). You'll also learn about the art of Makonde carving in this little town that's home to around 120 Maasai tribes - all with their own unique language and customs.
Ngorongoro Crater: Experience a one-of-a-kind drive inside an ancient volcano that’s packed with incredible wildlife and right in the heart of the action.
Serengeti: Another day, another game drive, giving us the most amount of opportunities to see the wildlife that roams these plains.
Serengeti: Cruise around the plains at sunset to explore new areas and spot a few more animals before they head off to bed.
Serengeti: Hello new accommodation – Kon tiki Serengeti Camp (yep, they're called Kon tiki). Here, you'll have easy access to prime game viewing areas, and you'll also be able to witness one of nature’s most extraordinary events - the Great Wildebeest Migration! Plus, it comes with luxurious beds, linen and professional chefs to serve up the freshest food.
Serengeti: Was that lion we heard last night? Let’s go find out. Take an incredible morning drive in search of the wildlife we heard throughout the night.
Serengeti: Watch out for local wildlife as we head to our camp, which is bang in the middle of these endless plains. Could the location be any more epic?
Tarangire National Park: Take a drive through the ‘land of giants’. This national park is known for its elephants and sprawling Baobab trees.
