Serengeti Under Canvas is a mobile operation with 4 permanent and 3 semi-permanent tented camps that circulate within the migratory path of the wildebeest in the Serengeti. The design of the camps is very much Bedouin chic and luxurious. Each tent is large, airy and equipped with kingsize beds, indian rugs and beautiful al fresco bathrooms. These camps are operated by &Beyond, whose standards are high and who are well versed at providing frills a-plenty. As at the rest of &Beyond's camps you can expect a high degree of theatre - food served in the finest dishes and even your own personal butler. Definitely not everybody's cup of tea, but certainly a good concept and doubtless well delivered.

Just a note to let you know that our trip to Tanzania was spectacular. We had the best guide who was most knowledgeable and great fun to be with. The tents and yurts were wonderful and the food was delicious. We were blessed with excellent weather and saw every animal possible and plenty of action among the big cats. It was unforgettable and I miss it already.

The game viewing was wonderful at Serengeti and we were amazed by what we saw – on the final evening drive a leopard in a tree came down as he heard the distress call of a dik dik being attacked by a cobra - The leopard was going for the cobra but darkness fell and we had to return to camp so never knew the outcome!

We had a terrific time. Observing animals all day is really, really fun. The guides were fantastic and we met great people all around.

Serengeti National Park - Central

Central Serengeti offers undeniably good game viewing, but you do need to be prepared for high numbers of tourists in certain areas. This element can be managed by a first rate guide but you should be aware that this is no wilderness area.  The Seronera valley is the particular magnet for both game and tourist vehicles, being the bread and butter circuit for many of the large lodges and the objective of much of the daily traffic that churns between the Ngorongoro Highlands and the Serengeti.

Tanzania

Tanzania safaris rival a safari any other country in Africa in terms of sheer wilderness, formidable landscapes and volume of wildlife.  At Natural High, we have travelled all over the country, worked in some of its best Tanzania safari camps and lodges and flown all over as bush pilots so we feel qualified to venture such opinions.
