Experience the Serengeti’s Great Migration, and view two significant human origin fossil sites plus magnificent savannah and volcanic landscapes, including Ngorongoro Crater. Stay at exclusive and luxurious tented camps, and travel in spacious four-seater, four-wheel drive safari vehicles.
Highlights are many:
- Leading our group of just 12 participants is paleoanthropologist/naturalist Dr. William Harcourt-Smith and expert driver/guides.
- Spend three days experiencing the spectacular “Great Migration,” when hundreds of thousands of wildebeest, along with tens of thousands of zebra, amass in the Lake Ndutu area of the southern Serengeti ecosystem.
- Spend three days exploring the Great Rift Valley and the remarkable Ngorongoro Crater, an extinct volcanic crater 10 to 12 miles in diameter that is teeming with African wildlife.
- Spend two days at Lake Natron, at the foot of Ol Doinyo Lengai, an active volcano, and visit the archaeological site of Engare Sero, where your AIA lecturer has worked for two seasons—it has the largest assemblage of fossil footprints on the African continent.
- Visit the famous Oldupai (Olduvai) Gorge and its museum with your expert AIA lecturer, learning about the important hominid fossils and tools found there.
- Stay for two days at the beginning, plus a day room at the end, at a luxurious coffee plantation lodge in Arusha and visit Arusha National Park.
- Enjoy eight nights at luxurious tented lodges in ideal locations, offering the amenities of a well-appointed hotel with the adventure of being under canvas.
