Adventures Amidst Tanzania’s Wildlife
Normally a safari is regarded as an intrepid adventure – a case of taking a holiday your way, far from the usual crowds. But make Olakira Camp part of your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Tanzania and you’ll be following the herd! Quite literally. Olakira Camp describes itself as a wanderer, following the annual migration of countless wildebeest as they plough across the Serengeti; which virtually guarantees you a front row seat as the drama unfolds.
But if you imagine that the romance of a nomadic life under canvas also means having to rough it from time to time, think again. Olakira specialises in mobile luxury.

Jonny took the time to discuss all the options with us and tailored every detail to our wishes. He suggested thoughtful add-ons, arranged excellent guides, and created a brilliant itinerary packed with maps, tips, and all the information we needed for exploring the two countries we visited. An absolute trip of a lifetime to Argentina and Brazil.
A hugely enjoyable nine-day trip, expertly organised from start to finish. The itinerary covered everything we wanted to see and do, with excellent guides, drivers and seamless logistics throughout. The documentation was clear and helpful, and the London office was consistently responsive, knowledgeable and efficient.
