This is a phenomenal sight: thousands upon thousands of animals, particularly wildebeests, as far as the eye can see. During the rainy season (from November to May), the wildebeests, whose population has been estimated at around 1’500’000, are found in the eastern section of the Serengeti and also the Masai Mara in Kenya to the north. When the dry season begins at the end of June, the annual migration commences as the animals move in search of food pasture. The Serengeti is also famous for cheetahs, leopards and lions, some of which migrate with the wildebeests while others remain in the central plain. NB: This program can be customized.

simply a message to express how unique you made our safari. From greeting us at the airport, despite any delays, to staying at the magnificent Arusha Planet Lodge, to the actual safari, and finally to the airport drop-off. John our tour guide, was remarkably punctual and meticulous. We both enjoyed the talents, expertise, and enthusiasm very lot. More animals of a higher diversity than we could have imagined were visible to us. Every day was energizing, and our meals were delicious, made with fresh, local food. Lastly, we would like to thank Peniel for his amazing work organizing this unique week and for his quick responses to all of our emails. Janet and Mike..

Our 7 days safari in Tanzania was above and above my expectations; We did a camping safari, it will always remain a memorable experience. We are really appreciative to our friends for recommending the company and our guide Anton to us. We had a quick and easy email exchange with the owner, so we knew precisely what to anticipate when we got there. During the tour, Benson, the cook, took good care of our tummies and was a really kind guide who gave us a lot of information! Throughout the trip, I realized that the guide and cook truly can make all the difference between an incredible and dreadful experience. We had a great time because we were well-cared for, which is why picking a reputable business is crucial.

I wholeheartedly endorse Lights on Africa for their safari experience in Tanzania. Once again, thanks, folks!
