01

Four legendary landscapes.
One unforgettable safari.

Begin among the giant baobabs and elephant herds of Tarangire. Continue towards the open plains of the Serengeti, where wildlife stretches to the horizon and the Great Migration moves seasonally across the ecosystem.

Then descend into the Ngorongoro Crater — a dramatic natural amphitheatre with an extraordinary concentration of wildlife. Lake Manyara adds another dimension with forest, birdlife, escarpment scenery and its famous tree-climbing lions.
