We know your concern about an area where you can see into action all the amazing big five animals without battling those pesky mosquitoes.

Or maybe you’re in the Ngorongoro Crater, where our Malaria free big five Safari brings you so close to the action, you’ll swear that lion just winked at you. And don’t get me started on the elephants in Tarangire, they’re basically the local celebrities, strutting around those massive baobab trees like they’re on a catwalk. Did I mention we can even arrange you something to do with the great migration where thousands or ten thousands of wildebeests cross over to Serengeti? Here its more like a blockbuster action movie, prey and the predator come eye to eye nearly every 10 minutes.

This isn’t your average point and shoot safari holiday experience. Our Malaria free big five Safari holiday package comes with guides who are part wildlife expert, part comedian, and part magician. Yes magician, how else do you think they spot those camouflaged leopards? Or where an action is about to go down between a lion and a gazelle. From the misty mornings in Aberdare to the golden sunsets in the Serengeti, we’ve handpicked spots where the only thing you’ll catch is amazing photos and maybe a slight addiction to sundowners.
