Need to know Cost of this safari in late Sep and Oct 2023 including both Serengati and Masai Mara, upto 7 / 8 days. looking Complementary quote.

The mass movement of the migrants starts at the beginning of the dry season from June and continues year after year searching for fresh, green pasture and water. The migration gets into Kenya at the Maasai Mara National Park and stays there for two months only i.e August and September, therefore the best time to visit Serengeti National Park is December to February and from May to July.

Do we need to assist in setting up camps and/or cooking?

If you choose camping safaris, then there will be a designated person who will take care of everything.

Which vehicles are we going to use?

In Kenya, we use 4x4 Safari Van, and in Tanzania we use 4x4WD Land Cruiser, all have a pop-up roof which enables you to take photos easily.
