Jambo from Arusha, Tanzania. My latest safari went very well. My two guests from Canada named John and Daphne were excellent photographers and they enjoyed taking pictures of everything including animals, birds and landscapes. They were very patient and that created plenty of opportunities for some superb wildlife encounters. The safari started on February 26, 2014 with 2 nights at Sametu Camp in the Central Serengeti. We then continued to the South Serengeti for 3 nights at Lake Masek Tented Lodge. During this time we visited Nasera Rock way out past the Eastern Serengeti in the remote reaches of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The drive was dusty and rough but my guests enjoyed the adventure.

After departing the Serengeti we explored the Ngorongoro Crater, staying at Crater Lodge for 2 nights and finally finished off our safari with 2 nights at Swala Camp in Tarangire National Park. My guests enjoyed the diversity of animals and habitats in Tarangire. We also had short time in Lake Manyara National Park for just a quick but fulfilling game drive.

The following are the photos to share with you:
