Imagine waking up every day to a saffron sun rising over the savannah plains teeming with wildlife. Tanzania’s tapestry of sweeping savannahs, ancient craters and gigantic baobabs is home to Africa’s amazing diversity of wildlife. November is a fascinating month for your Serengeti safari with the return of the wildebeest from the neighboring Maasai Mara National Park in Kenya, an annual migration across the great plains. You’ll witness the savannah rebound after the dry spell, giving way to the short rains and sun-filled days for the wildlife (and us) to soak in. It’s a spectacular time to witness the greatest wildlife show on earth. This specially curated über-luxurious safari is designed for you to be awed by Africa’s big game in the 21st century with the hope of survival thanks to scientists and people who have dedicated their lives to it. Plus, you can choose to relax afterwards by adding on our post trip to the spice island of Zanzibar staying in absolute luxury on the Indian Ocean. A wildlife safari in Tanzania is made more special with leader Rupi Mangat, a third generation local and a leading East African travel writer specializing in wildlife conservation. Doni Belau, founder of Girls’ Guide to the World will be along to ensure that your every need is met.
Here's a day-by-day itinerary of the trip.

In the words of Dr Bernhard Grizmek of the Serengeti Shall Not Die fame, he wrote: “Large cities continue to proliferate. In the coming decades and centuries, men will not travel to view marvels of engineering, but they will leave the dusty towns in order to behold the last places on earth where God’s creatures are peacefully living. Palaces can be rebuilt if they are destroyed in wartime, but once the wild animals of the Serengeti are exterminated no power on earth can bring them back.”
