Serengeti Safari Guides Animals Sumptuous Accommodations Tanzania



Going on Serengeti Safari is a perfect combination of sheer animal magnetism and sumptuous accommodations, but Uncharted Outposts Safari & Travel Company also feels that there is a third and essential component to the perfect Safari, and for them, it is all about the Guides. Widely considered some of the most seasoned and skilled safari guides at work in Africa today, the Nomad Tanzania guides offer their guests a safari that is at once both educational as well as exciting. Their extensive knowledge is not limited to the magnificent animals, but they will also offer tips on how best to observe and photograph the wildlife, up close and on foot.

Uncharted Outposts offers once in a lifetime experiences with their compelling safaris led by exceptional guides against the backdrop of Africa's magnificent landscapes, but be warned of khaki fever. One of their favorite camps, Serengeti Safari Camp, boasts the best guides in the land.

The difference is in the guides

There are no safari deadlines and no groups - the only hard and fast rule is that the guides know that their guests have come to spend their time in the wilderness - and not in a horde of bright white mini vans. Nomad guides are seasoned bush veterans, like native Tanzanian Mkombe Mniko, who was raised on the shores of Lake Victoria. Once a soldier and teacher in Nairobi, Mkombe's passion for Tanzania's wildlife brought him back home. His intimate knowledge of the bush has made him one of the country's most sought-after guides. He is a Northern Tanzania specialist but is crazy about the Selous Game Reserve having worked there for many years.

Guests may also be led by one of the European guides who have grown up in East Africa, like the wickedly funny Richard Knocker. Knocker is widely regarded as one of the best birders in Tanzania (it is jokingly said that "he has eyes like a buzzard"), and he too is one of the area's most highly requested guides. Richard's favorite places are always off the beaten track and he loves to walk, so for the more active adventurers out there, he is your man.

Guests may also join Squack Evans in exploring Southern Tanzania's most remote parks. Squack Evans' character combines his family's bush background with professional safari credentials. The grandson of the rancher and bush legend Jasper Evans, his family has pioneered camel safaris and conservancy in Kenya for generations. He is widely considered one of East Africa's finest and his sense of humor and knowledge will not disappoint.

Life in the camp.

At the Serengeti Safari Camp, which is the quintessential mobile Safari camp, guests can truly experience the wild firsthand - and in style. A mobile Serengeti community, the camp relocates every few weeks as the cycle of rain and drought drives the great herds in their annual journey from the short-grass plains of the southern Serengeti to the Masai Mara and back. There will be nothing staid - or staged - about one's experience at the Serengeti Safari Camp. It is truly an opulent, unique, nomadic adventure.

Lions lie in the sparse shade of gnarled trees, and crocodiles lie hidden in the murky waters of the Mara River. Imagine roaming these endless plains in classic safari style, witnessing dramatic life-and-death encounters between predator and prey by day, and each night retiring to a quintessential, old-world East Africa camp.

At the Serengeti Safari Camp, being on the move certainly does not mean sacrificing luxury.

While no two days are alike, they have similar lovely beginnings: piping hot cups of Meru coffee and warm croissants will be brought into the tent every morning. After Serengeti safari each day, the evenings will be remembered for ice-filled gin-and-tonics and delicious candlelit dinners.

At night, guests sleep in spacious, romantic tents equipped with en-suite bathrooms, traditional safari-style bucket showers, and hot and cold water.

The excellent guides, the luxurious details of the camp, and the sheer excitement of always being on the move with the game guarantee that Uncharted guests will never forget their time spent at the Serengeti Safari Camp.
