What does a six-day Tanzania safari cover?

Our six-day itinerary visits three iconic ecosystems — Tarangire National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti — with expert-led game drives, luxury lodge stays and seamless private transfers. It is the ideal length to see the full Big Five without rushing.

When is the best time to see the Great Migration?

The Mara River crossings typically occur between July and September, and June to October is prime dry-season viewing overall. Migration herds are present in the Serengeti year-round, moving in a circular pattern, so a game drive in any season offers spectacular wildlife.

Can you photograph and film our six-day Tanzania safari?

Absolutely — this is our specialty. We bring full cinematic kit including licensed drone coverage where permitted, and we can document your entire six-day journey or focus on a specific park. All park filming permits are arranged in advance by our team.

What wildlife will we see across Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro?

Tanzania offers the full Big Five — lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino (in Ngorongoro) — alongside giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, hippos, cheetahs and hundreds of resident bird species. Tarangire is famous for its elephants, the Ngorongoro Crater for dense predator populations, and the Serengeti for the Great Migration.

Can we combine the safari with a Zanzibar honeymoon or wedding?

Yes — combining a Zanzibar wedding or honeymoon with a northern Tanzania safari is one of our signature experiences. We craft seamless itineraries with one film and one beautiful story, photographing both the island and the bush.
