Tour Overview

Animal magic. Every year, the seasonal changes create one of the greatest spectacles on earth - the Great Migration. Africa’s annual race for life plays out on the great plains of Kenya and Tanzania, as over two million wildebeest, gazelle and zebra migrate from the Serengeti to the Maasai Mara. We map the course of the migration, staying in safari lodges and tented camps to get unrivalled access to unparalleled wildlife viewing. We don’t say this lightly, but this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime trip.

Itinerary

Expand All

Day 1

Location: United Kingdom

Titan’s VIP door-to-door travel service collects you from home for your flight to Nairobi. Arriving in the evening, we'll be transferred straight to our hotel.

Day 2

Location: Nairobi

Today, we get ahead of the game with an early start to Amboseli National Park. Located on the border of Tanzania beneath the snow-capped gaze of Mount Kilimanjaro, Amboseli is one of the best places in Africa to get close to herds of free roaming elephants and see traditional Maasai communities.
Our home for the next two nights has incredible views of Kilimanjaro and there’s no compromise on safari or style. After lunch at the camp, we head out on our first game drive.

Day 3

Location: Amboseli National Park

A bunch of early birds and late-night party animals, the wildlife in the park is most active at dusk and dawn. As the sun starts to rise, we’re up for an early game drive in search of four of the Big Five residents - lion, elephant, leopard and buffalo.
After breakfast at the camp and time soak up the mountain views from the pool, we listen to a talk on the tribes of Kenya and Tanzania - focusing on the Maasai. As the heat of the day starts to fade and the savannah comes back to life, we head out on another game drive in search of cheetah, giraffe, hyena and some of the 400 species of bird that have been recorded here.

Day 4

Location: Amboseli National Park

Today we start our own migration south. Playing eye-spy spotting zebra, antelope and buffalo as we take a final game drive through the western part of Amboseli, we cross the border into Tanzania. Passing beneath the twin peaks of Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru (the tallest and fifth tallest peak in Africa), we stop for lunch in Arusha - the chaotic but charming safari capital of Tanzania.
Continuing across the Rift Valley past local villages and roadside stalls, we wind our way into the cooler climbs and coffee plantations of the Northern Highlands. Arriving by late afternoon, we stay for two nights in a thatch-roof hotel set in 500 acres of fragrant gardens and coffee plantations.

Day 5

Location: The Highlands Camp

The high point of any Africa safari, today we drop down into the Ngorongoro Crater. The fertile slopes and rich grazing ground of this vast 260 sq km caldera is home to one of the greatest concentrations of wildlife on earth. Known as ‘Africa’s Eden’, expect seas of fuchsia flamingo, monochrome herds of zebra, and the stars of the show - the Big Five.
After a wilderness picnic lunch on the reserve, we continue driving around the crater - looking out for cheetah, warthog, hyena, endangered black rhino and rare black-maned lion.

Day 6

Location: The Highlands Camp

On the way to one of the most important wildlife reserves in the world, we stop at one of the most important sites in human history - Olduvai Gorge. Known as the ‘Cradle of Mankind’, this UNESCO-listed site holds some of the earliest evidence of humankind - including fossilised bones dating back 1.8 million years.
After lunch, we drive into the wildlife-rich plains of the Serengeti on our first game drive. Our base for the next two nights is located in an elevated position with privileged access to the seasonal flow of the migration. Tented suites with four-poster beds open out onto verandas with views across the southern plains.

Day 7

Location: Serengeti National Park

When it comes to wildlife watching, the Serengeti always brings its A-game. Endless grasslands set the stage for a supporting cast of lion, rhino, elephant, cheetah, leopard, buffalo, giraffe and impala. The Serengeti is also the starting blocks for the Great Migration. Each May, millions of wildebeest start the perilous 800km journey to the greener pastures of the Maasai Mara, braving crocodile-filled rivers and big cat predators along the way. We go on two game drives today, with expert guides getting us closer to the action.

Day 8

Location: Serengeti National Park

Today we charge our cameras for our final game drive in the Serengeti, before travelling through the riverine forests and mountains of the park’s Western Corridor and onto the shores of Lake Victoria - the second largest freshwater lake in the world.
The afternoon is free to relax at our lakeside eco-resort - stretching out by the pool, booking a treatment at the spa, or birdwatching in the grounds. The skies above Lake Victoria are home to over 250 species of bird, including the African fish eagle, sunbird and coucal.

Day 9

Location: Lake Victoria

Continuing to map the path of the migration, today we drive back across the Kenya border and into the Maasai Mara National Reserve - stopping for a picnic lunch and to spot wildlife on the way. We arrive late afternoon at our safari lodge, located on the peaceful banks of the Talek River.

Day 10

Location: Maasai Mara National Reserve

When you picture African safaris, you’re probably picturing the Maasai Mara. Along with the highest density of lions anywhere in the world, 'The Mara’ also got the lion’s share of big cat predators. Cheetah, leopard and lion prowl the grasslands, along with herds of elephant, giraffe, rhino, aardvark, hyena, and critically endangered black rhino. We'll explore its wonders on two game drives.

Day 11

Location: Maasai Mara National Reserve

Today, we make our way back to Nairobi. After lunch at a local restaurant, we visit the Giraffe Centre - an educational non-profit aimed at reintroducing endangered Rothschild giraffe into the wild. After meeting the residents, we return to the hotel where we started our incredible journey 10 days ago.

Day 12

Location: Nairobi

Today we drive into Nairobi National Park to visit the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust Orphanage. A sanctuary that rescues elephants and rhinos orphaned as a result of habitat loss, poaching and human conflict - the orphanage opens for one hour a day for visitors.
After our final lunch at a local restaurant, you’ll have the use of your hotel room to freshen up and say your farewells before transferring to the airport for our flight home.

Day 13

Location: United Kingdom

Upon arrival your Titan vehicle will be waiting for the journey home.

Recently returned from the great...

08-Apr-2024

Recently returned from the great Indian rail journey.My wife and I could hardly believe the value for money.From pick ups from Durham to Heathrow and back,to the number of coach and train journeys , quality hotels, great choice of food throughout and our first night in Heathrow Hilton. What really made our trip a success was our guide, Prashant,who managed a party of twenty four very varied, sometimes a little unpredictable travellers with ease.Nothing was too much trouble for him and as a group we gelled and warmed to Prashant as he kept us safe, well informed and a little entertained by his mix of authority and humanity.Where do I begin with the tour itself ? India,a country of extremes.Poverty,wealth,order,chaos.Sometimes bleak,often breathtakingly beautiful.The people,the cities,art, architecture,flaura and fauna.Delhi,Jaipur, Amritsar,Agra, Ranthambore, Chandigarh and the icing on the cake that is Shimla. An absolute masterclass of man versus nature,the railway and buildings are an unbelievable feat,but wait until you see the dual carriageway being built on the mountainside.🤯I could go on for a very long time but I'll just post some photos.Thanks to Titan,thanks to the excellent Prashant and and a massive thanks to the other twenty two travellers who helped shape our holiday of a lifetime.🏁💜

Exceptional trip and service by Titan

04-Oct-2022

Just returned from a fabulous tour of California & the golden west. It’s a full on tour with early starts but you see so much varied landscape from the ocean to the desert to Yosemite. My 2nd tour with Titan & my first solo tour. Thoroughly enjoyed it & met some great people. Grand Canyon was amazing would definitely recommend

Not merely a holiday, rather a memorable experience

29-Dec-2022

I have used other travel operators; this was the 1st time of touring with Titan----Israel, The Holy Land, from being collected from home and returned at the end of the holiday this was an unforgettable experience; the Tour Manager, a PhD Archaeology made the whole tour so interesting, he enlightened us throughout each day from an historical, archeological and Biblical viewpoint, bringing each site we visited come to life, and went over and above his remit escorting us for evening trips around the local area; thanks also to our very patient driver who coped with the very busy traffic; our hotels were good, professional and pleasant staff and really good food; I would recommend Titan to anyone looking for a fascinating tour with excellent efficient service thank you Titan nor just for a holiday for a memorable experience

Particular credit goes to our guide THI who is a caring, knolegeable, friendly down to earth man who made our trip a memorable one. I will not hesitate to book another holiday through Titan, their staff are friendly and helpful

We had a fantastic holiday...

26-May-2023

We had a fantastic holiday in Mississippi. Right from our chauffeur driven car picking us up to the return journey, we had a great time. The first hotel The Gaylord was amazing,absolutely huge,first class. The second The Double tree in Memphis unfortunately wasn't, the hotel was tired and very basic, the only plus was where it is situated in the centre of town, we were only there two nights so it wasn't to bad. The American Queen Steam Boat was first class all the way, thoroughly enjoyed the seven nights sailing down the Mississippi. The last hotel the Sheraton New Orleans was very comfortable too. Our guide throughout our time away was Laura Tuttle. she was amazing, very knowledgeable, and helpful. We also had a coach driver Guil, who went over and beyond to give you the best time. Other coach guides included Jim,who was so funny, and also very knowledgeably. Very entertaining throughout. The entire itinerary itinerary was very well thought out, included a huge variety of visits to different Interesting locations. Highly recommend using Titan for all your holiday destinations.

Perfect Italian Holiday…

31-Oct-2022

Just returned from a lovely week in Sorrento at the Grand Hotel Hermitage, we had an excellent guide Peter Macchristopher. we loved the hotel the staff were very nice especially in the dining rooms, the food was good and the room we had was really nice with a wonderful view. Altogether very good value holiday.we felt the trip to Pompei was very good also boat trip to Amalfi. I would recommend a walk to the village of St Agatha and a three hour ride on the Little Blue Train. Great fun.this can be booked at reception.

THE GREAT INDIAN RAIL JOURNEY!!!!...

03-Feb-2024

THE GREAT INDIAN RAIL JOURNEY!!!! (Dreadful) Avoid Titan and Saga at all costs. False descriptions of the tour and dreadful administration Returned to the UK last evening with a great sigh of relief after the worst holiday ever. 1. No block booking of airplane seats by Titan. (Husband and I sat apart on the long, overnight flight) 2. Unable to pre-book seats as Titan reference numbers did not coincide with anything. 3. Husband and I not sat together on any of the train journeys! In fact, on one occasion I was sat, alone on a sleeper carriage, a couple of carriages away from the rest of the group who were scattered over two or three carriages. Terrifying as a female to be sat alone in the midst of noisy locals!!!!! (Eventually the guide, Rahi, did come to rescue me and found a seat near the main group) 4. The guide, Rahi, would usually get off the coach and begin walking off without waiting for all the group to disembark the coach. (Spot the guide in the crowd!) 5. The guide, Rahi, refused to use any identifying prop such as a flag, hat, jacket or umbrella. Frightening to be in the manic crowds of Delhi and other crowded places to be unable to see the guide. 6. NO AUDIO HEADSET system on any excursion 7. The guide, Rahi, didn’t face the whole group, but stood sideways on and was unable to be heard by the majority. 8. OUTRAGEOUS behaviour by the guide when he enquired as to the whereabouts of my husband, whom I explained was in bed with an upset stomach and was feeling unwell. Rahi DID A REVERSE AIR PUNCH😳😳. This was in response to an earlier conversation when my husband had complained about our separate seating arrangements. TOTALLY UNPROFESSIONAL 9. When we arrived at Heathrow to find our aircraft seats were not allocated, we were advised to speak to our guide on arrival at Delhi. Rahi merely shrugged his shoulders and said he couldn’t do anything. 10. Tour pace incorrect - gruelling pace and only half a day relaxation due to the guide, Rahi, throwing in visits to shops and factories fie him to earn his commission as I head him tell another!!!!!!! 11. When off loaded the return flight due to illness, we were unable to get in contact with Titan/Saga. Left in Delhi without an hotel or flight!!! Found accommodation but didn’t remove shoes or clothes due to the poor standard. Final summary: Poor, disappointing, inefficient, incompetent, misleading, misrepresentations, are just a few words to describe.

Luxury VIP door to door...

17-Jul-2023

Luxury VIP door to door travel! I don't think so....Titan sent a Toyota Prius uber to Stanstead for a return journey to Newport, S Wales. 4 adults plus luggage! the experience was anything but luxurious. Contacted Titan on the return journey and since return. They simply didn't seem interested and offered us a £300 travel discount off a future trip! After a lot of emails they converted it to a £300 cash refund. Give it a lot of thought before booking !
