We did a 4 day Serengeti from the air tour with Safari Soles. We had the 4x4 to ourselves.
We were well looked after by our guide and driver Raymond. He was knowledgeable, drove well, spoke well and had a good sense of humour.
The 4x4 was clean and comfortable. Important when you are spending 4 days in it.
All the logistics, flights, transfers and accommodation worked seamlessly.
All the accommodation was clean and well looked after. It's important to note that in Serengeti you shouldn't luxury westernised hotels. Lodges and camps are exactly that. The staff are unfailingly polite and helpful.
The food is freshly prepared but simple. Don't expect loads of options.
We stayed at Serengeti Lodge, Sero tented camp and Rhino Lodge. Great and different experiences.
We were lucky to see the big 5. You need luck but it helps if your guide is knowledgeable as ours was. The serengeti is vast, the ngonrongoro crater is amazing.
We had a great time.
