4 Day – Wild Luxury Mara River Crossing with exceptional Comfort Jan – Dec 2022

Safari Highlights

Luxury safaris are the highest standard in safaris. From Arusha, we fly Northern Serengeti at the edge of Mara river where we are lucky enough to have extended time, before departure. Game viewing is superb all year round, but if you have timed your safari with the wildebeest migration, you can expect massed herds and plenty of predator action.

Accommodations are in luxury hotels, permanent luxury tented camps or the top range of game lodges. The safaris generally include light aircraft transfers between camps/lodges to avoid lengthy road transfers.

  • Day 01: Flight Arusha Airport to Northern Serengeti + High Tea and Afternoon Game drive.

    Early breakfast, pick up and transfer to Arusha Airport in time for check in for flight to Kogatende Airstrip.

    Flight departs Arusha Airport at 08: 00 AM, arrive Kogatende Airstrip at 09: 35 AM. Upon arrival you will be meet and greet with your private guide and drive the short distance to Lemala Kuria Hills Tented Lodge for HOT LUNCH. Afternoon head to the Mara River, time to watch the wildebeest migration as the dominated by the Mara River, groaning with crocs and hippos, this area is great for elephant, big herds buffalo, lion, cheetah as well as leopard in the many kopjes that make this landscape so distinctive.  Also look out for small Oribi, which thrives in this area, but is otherwise extremely scarce in northern Tanzania generally. 

    Fine linens, finer dining and a touch of nomadic romance are the hallmarks of this authentic East African safari lodge. Dinner and overnight at Lemala Kuria Hills Tented Lodge.

  • Day 02: Full Day game drives to Witness the Great Migration Mara River Crossing.

    These full day safaris are the best way to see the full range of what this magnificent park has to offer. Each excursion departs at around 6.30 am, with your 4×4 fully equipped to cross the Serengeti in search of game. The early mornings are relatively cool, but by midday it can become very hot indeed and sun-block lotion and hats are advised. Lunch is served under the shade of an Acacia tree as you take a break from scanning the horizons, and realize that all is well with the world.

    One of nature’s great occasions is the annual crossing of the Mara river by migrating wildebeest. Yet it is often in the lesser-known corners of the bush that we spot the highlights of your visit, such as a kill, amorous liaison, or lesser-known creature. A full day on safari gives you every chance of such unforgettable encounters. Return for sundowner and cocktails, campfire is ready for you, enjoy dinner and overnight at Lemala Kuria Hills Tented Lodge.
