Your adventure begins in Tarangire National Park, one of Tanzania's most beautiful national parks and home to some of Africa's largest elephant herds. Famous for its ancient baobab trees and the life-giving Tarangire River, the park attracts an incredible variety of wildlife throughout the year. During your game drive, you'll search for elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, wildebeests, impalas, warthogs, and more than 550 bird species while enjoying spectacular scenery.
The safari continues to the world-famous Serengeti National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site covering nearly 15,000 square kilometres of open plains, woodlands, and river valleys. The Serengeti is renowned for its incredible wildlife and is home to the legendary Great Wildebeest Migration, one of the world's greatest natural spectacles.

The adventure continues to Northern Serengeti, one of the most exclusive safari regions in Tanzania. Between July and October, this area becomes the stage for the dramatic Mara River crossings, where hundreds of thousands of wildebeests and zebras brave crocodile-filled waters in search of fresh grazing. Witnessing this remarkable event is one of Africa's most unforgettable wildlife experiences. Even outside migration season, Northern Serengeti offers exceptional game viewing with fewer vehicles and breathtaking landscapes.
During your safari, you'll stay at Safari Haven Central Serengeti and Safari Haven Northern Serengeti, providing comfortable accommodation in prime wildlife areas, allowing you to maximize your time exploring the Serengeti.
