A jaw-dropping migration thought to be the largest movement of land mammals on Earth.

You’ll be staying on a private reserve adjacent to the southern Serengeti, a sprawling wilderness home to lion, cheetah, elephant, giraffe, eland, impala, topi and countless birds. During your stay you will have the option to enjoy a variety of activities including day and night game drives, bush walks, picnics and cultural experiences.
