Witness the wildebeest migration in Tanzania

Tanzania

An annual migration of epic proportions. And memories just as immense.

Considered one of the world’s most profound events, witnessing the annual wildebeest migration from the Serengeti Park in Tanzania to Kenya’s Maasai Mara reserve is undisputedly, an experience of a lifetime. These are sights you may never observe again.

A 1200-mile odyssey made by wildebeest, zebra and smaller (yet equally ambitious) creatures, you expect to be bowled over by their quest, but you’ll be equally astonished by the terrain. Vast swathes of rain fall over a never-ending horizon and the savanna, barren yet beautiful, is a kingdom ruled solely by animals.

By daybreak you’ll be tracking the Big Five, by lunchtime you’re dining with a local family. And by the ninth day you’ll have participated in one of nature’s greatest journeys. This one trumps everything.

“After a safari in the wilderness, you’ll welcome a decadent high tea served in The “T” Lounge at Fairmont The Norfolk Hotel in Nairobi. It’s very refined. Just make sure you remove your khaki stubbies — no shorts here! ”

Hey there!

I'm Laura, the smiley face you'll spot as soon as you walk through our office door. With a serious case of wanderlust, I've done it all - lived abroad, cruised the seas, island hopped, even cruised around South Africa on the back of a motorbike! I am all about the adventure. But let me tell you about my ultimate love affair - Africa!

 

For three wild years, I bounced between Australia and South Africa, travelled to almost every corner on the bake of a motorbike. I’ve sat with Elephants for hours, seen the big cats hunting, slept under the stars in the middle of a game reserve. My heart belongs to the wildlife, and if you're an animal lover like me, trust me, Africa is the place to be.

 

They say home is where the heart is, and I left a piece of mine in Africa. Nothing makes me happier than helping others experience its magic. Sure, I'm a newbie in the travel industry, but exploring the world has been my jam since day one. The more I learn, the more excited I get about sharing the adventure with you!

 

So, whatever you are dreaming of, I'm here to make your travel dreams come true!
