Kodo Tours was built on one idea: a safari with personal service. We know the parks, the roads and the communities, and we shape each itinerary to your pace, your budget and your interests.
The 7-Day Great Migration and Northern Circuit Safari covers every park in the north, with three days in the Serengeti following the herds.
Herd movements follow the seasonKodo Tours runs climbs on all seven main routes, with certified mountain guides, a chef and porters, emergency oxygen and twice-daily pulse oximeter checks. Pick a route by days, gradient and crowds, or ask us to choose with you.
