Long before cities rose and borders were drawn, long before history had a name or language had shape, there was a rift in the Earth in what is now northern Tanzania. A quiet seam in the landscape, cradled between the Ngorongoro Highlands and the Serengeti Plains. This is Olduvai Gorge - one of the most important palaeoanthropological sites on the planet and, quite literally, the ground beneath our collective feet. It’s here that some of the earliest evidence of humankind has been unearthed. Bones, tools, and ancient footprints tell the story of our first steps - not metaphorically, but literally. If Africa is the birthplace of humanity, Olduvai is the delivery room.

After the thrill of a northern circuit safari in Tanzania, it's great to spend a few days in an entirely different environment - on a sun-kissed soft, white sand beach with palm trees swaying gently overhead and the warm waters of the Indian Ocean beckoning just footsteps away.

Kenya's Masai Mara National Reserve is a global icon for the notion of an untamed wilderness, renowned for its raw beauty, exceptional wildlife, and a legacy of conservation that reaches beyond its borders.

For travellers seeking a Tanzanian safari, the northern circuit—with its iconic Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire National Park — often dominates itineraries.

Mahale Mountains National Park, Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous Game Reserve), and Ruaha National Park form the backbone of Tanzania’s southern safari circuit, a region rich in biodiversity and raw wilderness. Together, these parks provide an alternative to the bustling north, offering intimate wildlife encounters, diverse landscapes, and an unfiltered connection to nature.
