Avocet safari
This wonderful
8-night fly-in safari allows you to visit three of the most famous parts of the northern safari circuit, including
Lake Manyara National Park, the
Ngorongoro Crater, and the
Serengeti National Park; the use of very high quality luxury camps throughout makes this trip ideal for those celebrating a special occasion.
If you want to catch the
great migration, then ideal timing for this trip would be around October and December – when it's usually in the north east area of the Serengeti. Alternatively, if you're visiting between about April to July, then consider the very similar
Avocet II fly-in safari as an alternative to this trip.
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.
