Secluded Tanzania

• Follow the migration across on the Serengeti on a seasonally designed itinerary
• Discover Ngorongoro Crater, home to Africa’s densest concentration of wildlife
• Absorb the sights and sounds of Africa in our exclusive private tented camps

On the East African savannah, the pulse of the planet reverberates. Our 4x4 vehicle is a tiny island in a vast, grassy sea, its idle drowned out by waves of pounding hooves. Like endless, shaking thunder, wildebeests and zebra flow in a living current across the Serengeti. Lions and cheetahs follow in their wake, finely tuned hunting machines ready to stalk and take down the weakest members of the herds. In the center of the world’s greatest ancient migration route, we are subsumed in a primal spectacle as the drama of predator and prey unfolds before us.

Important Information about This Trip

Tanzania is a magnificent safari destination, with prolific wildlife. This safari is designed to showcase the finest wildlife areas of Tanzania. The seasonally changing itinerary takes advantage of the movements of one of our planet’s most astonishing wildlife events - the Great Wildebeest Migration - in addition to visiting some of the region’s most spectacular ecosystems. While we focus on the migration, we will try to balance all wildlife viewing to create an incredible, all-around wonderful safari experience that takes advantage of the highlights of the season. This is delicately engineered by our local Expedition Leaders and guides. After several years of working on this trip and securing different permits, we have created an itinerary that incorporates the best wildlife spots while maintaining the seclusion and atmospheric accommodations that make an NHA trip special. Further, the remote exclusivity of our private mobile tented camp ensures we are far from the crowds. Add an extension to the mountain gorillas of Uganda or Rwanda and make this an all-encompassing African wildlife experience.
