We knew from experience that any trip with Simon and Des Steadman from Ultimate Adventures would be a special one. Thus, we had no hesitation in signing up to join a group of fellow travellers on a bucket-list adventure to Tanzania to witness the spectacle that is the Great Migration.
The plan was to fly to Tanzania and rent fully equipped 4x4 vehicles, which allowed more time in the Serengeti with the advantage of still having a self-drive experience. The self-drive, in my opinion, is a must as it allows you the freedom to experience this awesome place by yourself, but under the exceptional guidance of the Ultimate Adventures team. Information shared and guidance given were spot on and we were well informed from day one!
Getting there
We were booked on two Ethiopian Airlines flight from with the local driving style and masterfully wove through the numerous small motorcycles and public modes of transport.
