Northern Tanzania

Our northern safaris will take you deep into the epic wilderness of Tarangire, Ngorongoro and the Serengeti, off the tourist trail, into extraordinary wildlife areas not to be missed.

Western Tanzania

A safari in Tanzania of extraordinary contrasts. Two of the most iconic parks in Africa the remote Katavi and our chimpanzee cousins in Mahale.

Southern Tanzania

This is all about experience. A Tanzania safari spent in the game rich plains of Ruaha and the endless wilderness of Nyerere, the south is hard to beat.

Walking safaris

An Incredible Dream.

Greystoke Mahale, on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, has been around for many years. In the far and not much-explored west of Tanzania, it’s the best place in the country (probably in all Africa, actually, outside of the Democratic Republic of the Congo) to observe chimpanzees in their natural habitats.

Open from June to end October, it offers a changing wildlife spectacle as the Kakuma River dries up, the plains turn gold, and the remaining pools become increasingly contested by the huge numbers of hippos, while crocs hunker down in riverbank caves. 

The majority of safari camps and lodges are not set up for young children, but this exclusive-use sister property to the eight-room Lamai Serengeti was designed especially for them: there are two fenced-off pools (including one for infants and toddlers), the staff cook to order and game drives are when it suits.

In the entire park, there is not a single road, so your entire experience will be on foot. This is a wholly unique wilderness and a long way off the beaten track. But the lake, the beaches, the extraordinary forest, and of course the chimpanzees all make it a journey well worth undertaking.
