From the airstrip, your guide will meet you and transport you on a stunning drive to your camp. Travel up serpentine roads, driving amongst the clouds and in between Maasai herders with their cows.

Watch the shifting changes of the light as it plays with the various shades of green, giving you an eerie sense of timelessness as you pass through the primordial forests, in complete contrast to the Serengeti.
