East Africa Photo Safaris

Serengeti National Park
The major wildlife reserve in the world, covering an area equal in size to Northern Ireland, the Serengeti is a vast natural paradise. The park is home to the world's largest population of hoofed animals in the wild, and to an impressive flock of carnivores: 2,800 lions, 9,000 hyenas, 1,000 leopards, and 500 cheetah.

Ngorongoro Conservation Area
One of the great natural wonders of the world, the Ngorongoro Crater has become a natural enclosure for a very wide variety of wildlife, including most of the species found in East Africa. Home to the densest population of mammalian predators in Africa (including the magnificent black-maned lions), and to a small population of the endangered black rhino.

Lake Manyara National Park
A beautiful little park well known for its diverse set of landscapes and wildlife, and in particular for its elephants, incredible bird life, and large troops of baboons. Lake Manyara was once deemed the loveliest lake in Africa by American novelist Ernest Hemingway.
