6 Days Living Among Predators

This 6 Days Living Among Predators is our most popular tours as it allows you to spend a very reasonable amount of time in the Serengeti (2 nights) and still have the chance of exploring Ngorongoro highlands and the crater area before exploring Tarangire National Park a place that will show you many elephants.
