The Full Itinerary

Day 01 — 02

2 nights

Serengeti

Fly in from Zanzibar via Arusha for two full days on the plains, split-session game drives timed around the day's heat. Overnight at Moyo Tented Camp.

Where You'll Stay

Moyo Camp Warangi

A luxury tented camp nestled in the Serengeti National Reserve in the Seronera Valley, known as the big cat capital of Africa and one of the most popular areas in the entire reserve. Its location was thoughtfully chosen facing the Warangi River for the best year-round game viewing and breathtaking sunsets, just 20km from the Serengeti Seronera Airstrip.

Nestled high on the jagged rim of the Ngorongoro Crater and shrouded in mist, this lodge is a stunning example of ecological and architectural harmony — its boulder-built buildings camouflaged by indigenous creepers and linked by timber walkways that skirt ancient trees.
