Every trip is built by regional specialists who trek, dive and drive this ground year-round — not a call-centre itinerary template.
Follow two million wildebeest and zebra across the Serengeti–Mara ecosystem. We track the herds month by month to place you at the river crossings, not the crowds.

Yes — this is our specialty. We structure flights, transfers and lodge stays across countries into one seamless itinerary, timed so you never lose a travel day.
Yes — many of our most popular itineraries do exactly this. We handle the cross-border logistics (visas, permits, and where flights aren't available between two specific parks, the vehicle transfer and border clearance instead) so the three countries read as one seamless journey.
Crossings typically peak July through September in the Mara, and January through March for the Serengeti calving season. Our specialists place you by the exact week.
Treks range from 1–8 hours through forest terrain. We match you to the right trekking sector and pace based on your fitness level, and arrange porters where useful.
We book your gorilla (or chimpanzee) permit directly with the relevant park authority as part of your itinerary, matching you to a trekking sector based on fitness and travel dates. Permits are limited and sell out months ahead in peak season, so we secure yours as soon as your trip is confirmed.
Every multi-country itinerary includes visa guidance, gorilla/chimp permit booking, and all inter-country flights and transfers, coordinated end-to-end by our team.
Yes — airport pickup and drop-off is arranged as standard on every itinerary we book, with your guide or driver meeting you on arrival.
Yes — every itinerary we build is private to your own party by default, with your own vehicle and guide, rather than joining a shared group departure.
Your specialist and in-country team are reachable 24/7 for any guest currently traveling, and will adjust transfers and the first day or two of your itinerary around a delayed arrival wherever possible.
We accept secure card payments via Pesapal and direct bank transfer. We never see or store your full card details — Pesapal handles card payments directly. See our payment page for full details.
Bookings are confirmed with a deposit, refundable for a window after payment — full details, including supplier-specific deadlines, are set out in our cancellation terms.
