Rwanda and Serengeti experience
Rwanda and 1 other country between 2 Aug 2016 and 11 Aug 2016
"Every time I think about our Gorilla trek I get goosebumps. It was simply sensational. I am so glad we decided to go on two consecutive days and were able to see two gorilla families.
Olakira camp was fantastic - a great choice for anyone interested in witnessing the amazing wildebeest migration. The service, facilities, food and guiding was nothing short of exceptional.
I could not recommend the Ngorongora crater or Manyara based on our experience. It really fell short after the Serengeti although a better guide would no doubt have contributed to a richer experience."

Olakira
"A wonderful camp"
3 nights
Arrived

"Olakira was exceptionally well positioned. We saw four wildebeest river crossings and just about every animal you could name. Our guide, Elysante was fantastic - very kind, knowledgeable and a great communicator.
The camp was exceptionally well run and the food John turned out each day was outstanding."
