Highlights of trip
Kilimanjaro Scenic Flight
Soar above Africa’s highest mountain on this Kilimanjaro scenic flight. The one-hour trip departs from Arusha airport at 07.00am and passes over the national park, providing aerial views of ancient craters and herds of animals. When you board the plane, you’ll be given a headset and tablet loaded with an audio app that has geolocation tracking, so you can learn about the landmarks below as you fly. As you climb high above the clouds, Kilimanjaro dominates the view with its sparkling glaciers and mighty peaks. The flight is run by Ruka Africa, the pioneer of Kilimanjaro flights, in partnership with Grumeti Airline. You’ll fly in a Cessna Grand Caravan, which can accommodate eight passengers in window seats. This type of aircraft is used all over the world for scenic flights and has high wings that don’t obstruct the view. The flight route follows a figure-eight path on the northern side of Mount Kilimanjaro, so you’ll see everything regardless of which part of the plane you sit in. What’s more, Ruka Africa works with Carbon Tanzania, an organisation that plants trees in key areas of the country to offset their emissions.

Serengeti Hot-Air Balloon Safari
After watching the crew inflate their craft at the launch site, take flight and drift upwards as the sun rises for an entirely different perspective of the Serengeti; the bright pink-orange haze visible for miles across the vast savannah; a group of grazing zebra becoming distinguishable from their silhouette forms below; a family of elephants wandering just below you. The photo opportunities are incredible. And wherever you land, a Champagne breakfast will be laid out for you to enjoy. It’s one of our most highly recommended safari experiences. Please ask your Personal Travel Expert for details.

Depending on the timing of your visit, today you’ll either head north or south into the less accessible and quieter reaches of the Serengeti. Between June and October, your base will be Lemala Mara Camp in a sublime location in the heart of the best game viewing area of the Northern Serengeti. It’s very close to the Mara River, where wildebeest mass along the steep banks during their frantic crossing on their way to the Maasai Mara. Here you’ll enjoy remote wilderness and terrific game viewing with practically no crowds. Between December to March, you’ll stay at Lemala Ndutu Camp, right at the epicentre of the annual migration that sees over a million wildebeest journey across southern Serengeti.
