We protect the published accommodation order, allow realistic time between distant wildlife areas and coordinate any crater, airstrip or city connection before travel. Your private guide can adjust the daily start and game-viewing rhythm within that structure. This additional time is especially important when the itinerary reaches a seasonal Serengeti sector or returns from a remote region by road.
