12 day Safari to the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara in Tanzania       

Whether it is one of the lodges or the permanent tented camps, the cleanliness, amenities, food and service are all top notch.  The tented camps all have permanent structures that have teak or concrete floors, running water in the bathrooms, showers and electricity, but happen to have canvas walls and can be compared to 3-5 star hotels.  Don't get me wrong.  You are in a wilderness twice the size of Connecticut with intentionally limited and ecologically oriented development.  There are no TV's in the rooms, but then there are none in Yellowstone either. A few of the lodges have internet access.  The specific lodges chosen will be different on each trip based upon where most of the wildlife is at that time.
