Longclaw safari
This fantastic 9 night fly-in safari takes in Tarangire National Park, as well as two different areas of the Serengeti, the far north and the south; you can therefore experience the the gentle rolling country of the quiet and wild north and short grass plains of the south. 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.

| Oliver's Camp (full board & activities) |
| Whilst based at this friendly and well-run camp, explore the surrounding area either on foot or in a open 4x4 vehicle using the camp's own excellent guides. You will find good game here especially during the dry season when animals are attracted to the nearby marshes. |

| Sayari Camp (full board & activities) |
| Sayari is the only permanent camp this far north in the Serengeti National Park and is a wonderful place to spend 3 nights. The resident game around here is very good in this magnificent wilderness area. However, around August to November the great migration is likely to also be here, so it's an ideal base for seeking out spectacular crossings of the Mara River. |

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. |
