Safari summary
Join us as we journey on the famous Big 5 Luxury Safari travelling through two UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The world-renowned and a contender for the number one safari park worldwide, Serengeti National Park and the World’s largest caldera, Ngorongoro Conservation Area. After we venture down the road to experience the flora-dense, Lake Manyara National Park with an attempt to spot the Tree Climbing Lions and home to an incredible array of bird species playing paradise for an ornithologist. Our Big 5 Safari combines lodging with tented camping which we believe to be the perfect way to experience a safari as you listen to the sounds of the African bush without compromising comfort.
