10-Day luxury migration Safari

Touching down in Tanzania is the beginning of something extraordinary. You’ll be welcomed at Kilimanjaro Airport with a warm handshake, a cool towel, and the kind of smile that says you’re in good hands. From there, it’s a short drive to your accommodation in Arusha, where lush gardens and mountain views offer the perfect place to rest and reset. Enjoy a slow evening, a nourishing meal, and the comfort of knowing your journey is about to unfold, seamlessly, beautifully, and entirely for you.

Today your safari truly begins. You’ll journey to Tarangire National Park, a place of ancient baobab trees, winding riverbeds, and some of the largest elephant herds in East Africa. Game drives here are a feast for the senses, from the earthy scent of the bush to the golden light that filters through the trees as the sun begins to drop. With fewer crowds than other parks, Tarangire invites you to slow down, notice more, and feel the rhythm of the wild.

At first light, you’ll descend into the Ngorongoro Crater, an ancient volcanic bowl teeming with life. Lions lounge in the grass, flamingos shimmer on the soda lake, and endangered black rhinos quietly graze nearby. After a full morning exploring this wildlife haven, your journey continues as you head west into the Serengeti. You’ll arrive in time to catch your first Serengeti sunset, golden light dancing across the plains, with distant silhouettes of giraffes and wildebeest welcoming you to one of Africa’s most iconic landscapes.

Wake to the sounds of the wild, the distant roar of a lion, the call of hornbills overhead. Today is all about immersion. You’ll spend the full day exploring the Central Serengeti, where wide open plains meet rocky outcrops and big cats rule the land. With your expert guide leading the way, you might follow a leopard’s tracks or witness elephants gathering at a hidden waterhole. No rush. No crowds. Just the rhythm of nature, and your place within it.

Begin your day with a final game drive through the Central Serengeti, prime territory for lions, leopards, and cheetahs. As the sun climbs, so does the drama. After lunch, your journey continues northward, following the path of the Great Migration. By late afternoon, you’ll arrive in the Northern Serengeti, where wildebeest gather in their thousands and the Mara River sets the stage for one of nature’s most iconic spectacles.

Today is all about being in the right place at the right time. The Mara River crossings are never guaranteed, but when they happen, they’re unforgettable. Thousands of wildebeest gather at the banks, some hesitate, others plunge forward, while crocodiles lurk and chaos unfolds.
Even without a crossing, the atmosphere is electric. The scale of the herds, the intensity of the moment, and the surrounding wildlife activity make this one of the most dramatic safari experiences on Earth. Your guide will adapt the day around the movement of the animals, always giving you the best possible chance to witness the spectacle.

Your final full day in the Serengeti is a chance to dive even deeper into the drama of the migration. Follow fresh tracks, scout the riverbanks, and listen as your guide reads the land like a book. This isn’t just about ticking off sightings, it’s about feeling part of something ancient, wild, and utterly awe-inspiring.

After your morning flight from the Serengeti, we’ll transfer you to Osiligilai Maasai Lodge, nestled between Mount Meru and Kilimanjaro. This isn’t just a place to rest, it’s a final chance to connect deeply with Tanzania’s people. Spend the afternoon learning from your Maasai hosts through traditional song, storytelling, and shared laughter. Walk the land with a local guide, hear the wisdom behind the customs, and witness a way of life that’s both ancient and evolving. It’s a grounding, heart-opening end to a powerful journey.

Wake up to the stillness of the savannah one last time, with Kilimanjaro watching over you. After a slow breakfast and final goodbyes to your Maasai hosts, we’ll transfer you to the airport for your onward journey. You may be leaving Tanzania, but a part of it will travel with you.
