We bow to the fact: Many of us are firmly engaged in a very busy world, a world in which time away from the busyness is precious. And so we offer this safari to three major contributors to the East African mystique: the classic game lands of Lake Manyara, the Ngorongoro Crater, and the fabled Serengeti—all in a mere but marvellous 5days.
Direct flights from Europe take us to the sudden serenity of the Arusha , and then we’re off on a carefully choreographed safari, with two nights in each of the camps and lodges we’ve chosen for their warmth of spirit, their serenity, their location, their refreshing lack of busyness.

This circle of life is determined by the rainfalls and locations of the herds might vary from year to year but your guide will know where to find the animals and where to see them best.
