Waxbill safari
This fantastic
6 night fly-in safari allows you to spend time in two of the most famous areas of the northern circuit: the
Ngorongoro Crater and the
Serengeti National Park, both of which are known for their stunning landscape and wonderful game viewing opportunities. High quality, luxury lodges are used in this itinerary which add to the enjoyment of the game experience.
If you want to catch the
great migration in the Serengeti, then ideal timing for staying at Klein's Camp would be October to November. During the months of April and July, Grumeti River Camp would be more appropriate as the migration generally moves towards and within the Western Corridor then.
After your safari, if you want to relax on the beach, then add one of our
beach add-on trips to
Zanzibar,
Pemba,
Ras Kutani or the
Mafia Archipelago, to your itinerary.

Depart London Heathrow on a scheduled British Airways overnight flight, for Lake Manyara Airport via Dar es Salaam. |
Arrive at Manyara airport mid-morning, where a superior guide will meet and drive you through the countryside to the border of the Ngorongoro Crater. You will spend 2 nights at the opulent… |
| Ngorongoro Crater Lodge (full board & activities) |
| This is a decadent and very luxurious lodge where pampering is top of the bill. The views of the Ngorongoro Crater are quite beautiful and each room has its own veranda from which to enjoy them. From here you will drive down into the Ngorongoro Crater where you will spend time enjoying the caldera and will have the opportunity to get up close and personal with the animal life down there. |
In the morning after breakfast, catch a light aircraft to the northern area of the Serengeti, Loliondo where your private driver will meet you. Meander back to camp, stopping to see any interesting game you pass on your way. Then arrive in time for a lovely lunch at… |
| Kleins Camp (full board & activities) |
| This smart camp is set on the rocky slopes of the Kuka Hills which harbour good game – and you'll explore the area using your own private open 4x4 vehicle and superior guide. |
|
After your last morning on safari, fly to Kilimanjaro Airport and then either continue onto one of our beach holiday add-ons, or connect with your evening British Airways flight to London via Nairobi. |
|
Arrive at London Heathrow early in the morning, with plenty of time to make onward connections home. |
