Thomson Safaris is proud to partner with Hunt’s Photo & Video on another timeless Tanzanian adventure. This immersive safari speaks to the animal lover’s soul: an exciting photographic adventure that takes you straight into the heart of Tanzania’s best wildlife viewing areas; Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater and both the Central and Northern Serengeti. Venture into the plains every morning for full days of spectacular wildlife viewing, and unwind in luxurious, eco-friendly camps located in the middle of the wild. Each night, settle in to comfortable, downy bedding and drift asleep to the nighttime sounds of safari.

On this all luxury-camping trip, you’ll have front row access to the best wildlife viewing Tanzania has to offer.

This safari was scheduled to coincide with the annual wildebeest migration, which, at this time of year, is normally found along the Mara River in Tanzania’s northern Serengeti.
