Transfer from Nairobi to the famous Maasai Mara – one of the best game reserves in Africa. On the way, you’ll stop in
Loita Hills – a remote region home to the traditional Maasai people. This is one of the key places where the Maasai
people still practice their traditional way of life, with little influence from the Western world. Visit the Tepesua
Village, known for championing Maasai women’s health and education. Maasai Warriors will welcome you here by
way of traditional song and dance. Meet your hosts and attend a talk full of insights into this remarkable and
ancient culture. Take a walk to the community village, which was founded for widows who can never remarry and
lost their cows due to drought. The village offers support, safety and economic growth through the Tepesua
Widows Income Project. Here, the women make handicrafts and sew handbags using sustainable materials as well
as washable sanitary pads and backpacks to sell to visitors and locals. Learn about village life and be shown around
a traditional Maasai home and its cattle enclosures. Continue to the outskirts of the Maasai Mara, where your
permanent tented camp can be found.

Get ready for a long travel day as you journey toward the Kenya-Tanzania border and make your way to the
magnificent Lake Victoria. This vast lake is the main source of the Nile, the longest river in the world, and spans the
shores of Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda. On arrival, unwind with a lakeside dinner while you ponder the magnitude
of the world’s largest tropical lake. Your travel time today will be approximately 10-11 hours, including border
formalities.

Enjoy a relaxed morning, taking in the magnificent views of Lake Victoria in the morning light. Travel to Serengeti
National Park, renowned for its incredible wildlife and vast, open landscapes. After passing through the park gate,
experience the greatest commute possible as we slowly make our way to our permanent tented camp via the
‘scenic safari route.’ Along the way, stop to take photos of the abundant wildlife and stunning views. Tonight, you’ll
have a true African safari experience – with your comfortable safari camp set right in the heart of the Serengeti.
After dinner, gather around the campfire to share stories, then fall asleep to the sounds of the wild. Your travel time
today will be approximately 3 hours, not including your safari en route to camp.

Meals Included: Breakfast / Lunch / Dinner | Included Activities: Serengeti National Park – 4WD Safari | Accommodation: Tukaone Serengeti Camp or similar

Wake to another glorious day in the Serengeti National Park. Start the day with an early morning 4WD safari to spot
the wildlife when they’re at their most active. Then, return to camp for a relaxed brunch. This afternoon, head off
again for another drive through the park. Return to camp for dinner and another night under the Serengeti’s stars.
There is another optional balloon ride this morning, offered as a pre-booked service, which will guarantee you a
place. If you would rather wait and try to get a better price by booking this locally on the ground, you are welcome
to – but keep in mind that this is a popular activity and places are limited. Today’s game drives will depend on the
time of year and how far the best possible animal sightings are likely to be from camp. To maximize your chances of
epic wildlife encounters (and reduce time spent commuting to and from camp), you may do a full-day safari rather
than separate morning and afternoon safaris.

Enjoy a final game drive through the Serengeti National Park this morning as you exit your camp inside the park
and make your way to the park gate. From here, drive to the Ngorongoro Conservation area, where you’ll hop in the
park’s 4WD jeeps and descend to the crater floor. The jeeps have an open roof, and the animals here are less wary of
humans and vehicles, which makes watching them up close easier. Take in the spectacular views from the crater’s
rim as you make your way to the bottom, where animals roam the lakes, rivers, woodlands and hills. Keep an eye out
for wildebeest, lion, zebra, cheetah, buffalo, gazelle, endangered black rhino and the colorfully dressed Maasai
people who often water their cattle at the lake here. This afternoon, leave the Ngorongoro Crater and drive to Karatu
– a small town on its outskirts and your base for the next two nights.

in the magnificent views across its shimmering waters. The area surrounding Lake Eyasi has been home to the
Hadzabe people for more than 10,000 years and is one of the few places in Africa where traditional tribal life
continues with little modern influence. Today’s visit to the Hadzabe lands offers fascinating insight into this ancient
culture and a chance to learn about their way of life. Meet community members and take part in daily activities
such as hunting, gathering, and traditional dance, while learning about their unique ‘click’ language believed to be
