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.

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!

CJ December 2011

We just got back on Monday after our 3 weeks in the bush and we had a fantastic trip - thanks to Natural High for organising everything. We saw all of the game that we could imagine and a total of 250 species of birds, the overall experience was quite overwhelming. We had a wonderful trip.

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

The Serengeti National Park

The Serengeti is the best known safari destination in the world with good reason. Even if you exclude the Wildebeest Migration with its 1.5 million odd animals, the proliferation of animal life in the Serengeti defies belief.   In the company of a good guide, this can be like stepping into a wildlife documentary.  We’d advocate building your safari in northern Tanzania around the greater Serengeti, but you do need to be aware that being in the right place at the right time is everything in this neck of the woods. Find out when the Serengeti Wildebeest Migration happens. Read more?

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.
