This Classic safari itinerary is focused on the Serengeti ecosystem at a very exciting time of the year; when the Great Migration is concentrated in the Eastern Plains. This package price is perfect for those looking to simply experience the best of the Serengeti – or those who want to capture great images.

This safari is conducted from the Grand Kopjes Camp, allowing you to settle into one camp and still explore new places every day, including many of the most spectacular areas in the Serengeti. Great wildlife encounters and photographic opportunities guaranteed, lots of them.

Upgrade this safari from a shared vehicle to a private vehicle for two for $1000. per person. Consider extending the safari with a couple days in Zanzibar at a fine resort or small romantic beachside accommodation.
