New Walking Safari in the Serengeti!

Our walking safaris will take you in to the most remote corners of the Serengeti National Park giving you the opportunity to explore this amazing park on foot. All our walking safaris are multiple day walks starting from a minimum of a 2- night to 4- nights in the bush. Between December and July the walks will take place in a wilderness zone close to central Serengeti and between August and end of November in a wilderness zone in the Northern Serengeti.

Our guides have been trained to not only guide safe walks but to also bring across the essence of a walking safari and to make you realize just how special you are having the opportunity to explore this remote corner of bush all alone and on foot.

Follow the big migration

The big herds are still in Southern Serengeti. The hundreds of thousands animals are grazing in Ndutu area. This is a great place as you will pass it on your way to the Serengeti and the wildlife is easy to spot. From Ndutu Safari lodge you are able to see the migration from your bedroom window. Also at the new exclusive tented camp overlooking Lake Masek you can enjoy your breakfast among thousands of wildebeest, zebra’s and Thomson gazelles.

New lodge managed by ex street children

The Watoto Foundation is a foundation founded and managed by Dutch people for Tanzanian street children. The foundation is building a new lodge on the foothills of Mt. Meru, the Kiboko Lodge. The lodge will be managed by ex street children who got a second chance at life thanks to the Watoto Foundation. They hope the lodge will be ready by the end of May, but bookings are already welcome. As far as we are aware, the Kiboko Lodge is the only lodge in the world managed by ex street children. The foundation has already selected eight experienced boys and a lot of people have offered help and training. They hope the lodge will be an important source of income for the centre at Makumira and will stabilize the financial support of this project.

Recipe of the month: Ugali

Every month we introduce a different typical Tanzanian dish. This month we will share the recipe for the most frequently used dish in East Africa. Ugali is boiled cornmeal, made by pounding fresh corn and squeezing out the cornstarch.

Ingredients:
2 cups white cornmeal, finely ground, also called Unga, you can buy it at an African shop
2 teaspoons salt
4 cups of water

Bring the water and salt to a boil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Stir in the cornmeal slowly, letting it fall though the fingers of your hand. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue stirring regularly, smashing any lumps with a spoon, until the mush pulls away from the sides of the pot and becomes very thick, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool somewhat. Place the ugali into a large serving bowl. Wet your hands with water, form into a ball and serve. Ugali is usually served as an accompaniment to meat or vegetable stews.
