Migration Update from LLA

The wildebeest and zebra, due to the unusual weather patterns, are dispersed around various areas of Serengeti National Park. Our guides inform us that some groups can be seen still around the Gol Kopjes Areas but also as far north as Lobo and Mbuzi Mawe. We are keeping in close communication with our guides in the field to see where they will go next since these patters are really quite extra ordinary. We will keep you posted to watch this space!

5 Endangered Black Rhinos arrive back in the Serengeti

History was made over the last few weeks with the repatriation of five endangered Eastern Black Rhinoceros who were moved from South Africa back to their rightful home in East Africa.

The animals arrived at Singita Grumeti Reserve in the Serengeti National Park in the first phase of a joint venture which has been cited as the most ambitious wildlife relocation in East Africa over the past 50 years.

Client Feedback

Hi Tarquin

First off Anna and i would like to thank you for organising a wonderful and unforgettable trip for our honeymoon! We arrived back this morning fully relaxed and with many great memories.

Suffice to say that without exception our hosts at Vuma, Kono Kono and Kilindi were fabulous! The locations, accommodation, service and food were superb. We were looked after at highest level and each resort made extra effort to make our stay special.

If you would like more detailed feedback from any of our trip please feel free to give me a call.

Tanzania - Another world heritage site?

It is understood that Dar es Salaam has applied to UNESCO for the declaration of the Udzungwa Mountains National Park as a World Heritage Site. The park, referred to as an ‘undiscovered gem' offers a wide range of mammals, the red colobus monkey, 400 bird species, numerous butterflies and the highest waterfall in Tanzania (the 170m Sanjes Falls). The park also offers extended walks and hikes through rain forest. At present no formal accommodation exists within the park.

Migration Update from LLA

Despite having received a lot of rain showers in and around the various areas of Serengeti National Park, the wildebeest herds have remained in and around the Moru Area throughout the month of April. Only now have they started moving north west but very slowly.

Clients have had excellent sightings throughout their safaris not only have they seen the ‘big 5’ but one group even witnessed a couple of hungry lioness’ kill a zebra for their afternoon tea!

Therefore the saying to avoid Tanzania in the rainy season is a myth and in our personal opinion one of the best times to come to the destination.
