Summary

May 10, 11, 12: Namiri Retreat
May 13, 14, 15: Singita Sabora
May 16: Depart for the Seychelles
On Arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport you will receive a VIP meet and assist service ensuring a smooth transition through arrivals. You will then meet your driver who will take you to the Legendary Lodge, about a 70 minute drive away.
The next morning Ninian will transfer you to the Arusha Airport ( about 20 minutes ) for your private flight to Seronera, where the Namiri Plains team will meet you and take you on your first game drive to camp. You will have three nights at the Namiri Retreats in the Eastern Serengeti. Possibly one of the best places in the world to see cheetah and lion. In May there is a chance that we will catch up with the tail end of the great wildebeest migration here.
After three nights at Namiri you will drive/fly to the Singita Grumeti Reserves where you will stay at Sabora Camp. Sabora sits on a very slight rise, right out in the open plains, in a beautiful spot. On most nights you can hear lions calling from your tent.
On the last day, you will fly by private charter back to Nairobi in Kenya, via Musoma for customs and immigration to catch the 12.30pm flight to the Seychelles.
