Signature experiences
Scroll along the hours. Every moment below is something we can build into your trip, from a dawn balloon to a night under canvas.
All 24 experiences →Serengeti
Up before the light, drifting over the plains as the herds wake, then champagne breakfast under an acacia.
Game drive
The cats are still hunting and the light is gold. Roof up, engine off, binoculars out.
On foot
Tracks, dung, birdsong and the things you never see from a vehicle, with an armed ranger and a Maasai guide.
Bush lunch
A white cloth under a tree, giraffes for company, and the long quiet of midday when the animals rest and so do you.
Community
An afternoon with a Maasai or Hadzabe family our guides grew up beside. Cattle, beadwork, stories, a shared meal.
Sundowner
A cold drink on a kopje, or a dhow off Zanzibar, as the sun goes down and the sky does its thing.
Under canvas
Lanterns, a fire, hyenas whooping somewhere out there, and more stars than you knew existed.
summit day?
Swap any hour for a Kilimanjaro dawn, a Mara River crossing or a snorkel at Mnemba. Your day, your way.

From the bush
The herds never stop moving. Here is where they usually are in each month of the year, and where we would base you to see them.
Both reach the same summit. They differ in crowds, scenery and how kindly they treat your body on the way up.
Nungwi, Kendwa, Paje or Jambiani. Tides, kite winds and nightlife decide it more than the sand does.
