Walking with the hunter-gatherer Hadzabe people

Explore Stone Town on Zanzibar
Stone Town is a maze of haphazard alleyways leading between tall houses and palaces. The spice market is a popular place to visit and there are numerous places to stop for a spot of lunch.
See the Great Migration
Throughout the year, the two million strong migration of wildebeest, zebra and gazelles wanders the plains of the Serengeti and the Masai Mara in search of water and fresh grazing.
Walking safari in Ruaha National Park
The emphasis on your safari with your host and guide, Moli, is on the walking safaris which really unveil the magic of Ruaha National Park. You can also incorporate bushcraft into a walk.
Serengeti balloon safari
This is one of the most popular ways to see the wildlife of the Serengeti. The flight will last for around an hour before you land to celebrate with champagne before a full English breakfast prepared and served in style in the middle of the bush.
Track chimpanzees in the Mahale Mountains
You will set off on foot from Greystoke Camp with your guide and will head up the steep forested slopes of the Mahale Mountains in search of primates. Six species of primates live in the mountains, but the main excitement for most visitors are the chimpanzees.
