Great Migration & Gorilla Trek — Tanzania & Rwanda Ultimate Combo
The ultimate 14-day combo: witness the Great Migration's thundering herds on the Serengeti, descend into Ngorongoro Crater, then fly to Rwanda to trek through misty forests and sit face-to-face with endangered mountain gorillas.
About This Safari
This is the safari that combines Africa's two most extraordinary wildlife experiences into one life-changing journey. Begin in Tanzania where the Serengeti's endless plains host the greatest wildlife spectacle on Earth — over two million wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle on their eternal migration, pursued by lion prides, cheetahs, and hyena clans. Stay at exclusive camps that follow the herds, with twice-daily game drives and optional hot air balloon flights at dawn. Descend into the Ngorongoro Crater — the world's largest intact volcanic caldera and home to 25,000 animals including the endangered black rhinoceros and vast flamingo flocks. Then fly to Rwanda — the "Land of a Thousand Hills" — where the adventure transforms from open plains to misty volcanic rainforests. Trek through bamboo and hagenia forest to sit just metres from a family of mountain gorillas — fewer than 1,000 remain in the wild. Watch the 200kg silverback regard you with gentle, intelligent eyes while juveniles tumble and play. It is, quite simply, the most profound wildlife encounter on the planet. This is not just a safari — it is the definitive African wildlife experience, blending the continent's most iconic spectacle with its most intimate encounter.
