UNESCO World Heritage Biosphere
Spanning 14,763 km² of unbroken savanna, riverine forests, and ancient granite kopjes, the Serengeti hosts over 3,000 lions, 1,000 leopards, and the 1.5-million-strong Great Wildebeest Migration.

"Unforgettable experience! I was travelling alone and this was the first company of all I’ve contacted that made me feel safe and cared about. Matt was the most professional and patient to answer 1001 questions before my first safari trip, I can trust him with everything now. The itinerary was perfect, in 4 days we visited Tarangire, South and Central Serengeti and Ngorongoro and I wouldn’t change a thing in the trip! And the lodges I was staying in were great. Huge thanks to Dula and Penda. Thanks to Matt and the whole Nata Travel team again, willing to come back with my family again next year!"
