Serengeti Photo Safari + Zanzibar Extension! A Journey of a Lifetime
We all have seen Lion King in one form or another . . . It's now time to go to the source.
Our meetup is off to Africa for The Great Migration Photo Safari! We did this amazing trip in the summer of 2024 and everybody had a blast! (see photos in the link below)
Encounter the exotic wildlife of the Serengeti! Marvel at the lions, zebras, elephants and so many majestic animals we have only seen in the zoo or in movies.
On Serengeti's vast, treeless plains tens of thousands of hoofed animals are constantly on the move in search of fresh grassland. This is a once-in-a-life-time opportunity to experience the best game viewing in Africa!
Like every trip we do with Meetup, this one is personally crafted to offer the best places and best use of time.
The itinerary is:
July 5 Arrival Kilimanjaro Intl Airport and transfer to Arusha
July 6 Arusha to Tarangire National Park
July 7 Ngorongoro Crater full day game drive
July 8 Ngorongoro to Serengeti National Park (Central Seronera area)
July 9 Serengeti (Central)
July 10 Northern Serengeti (Kogatende)
July 11 Northern Serengeti (Kogatende)
July 12 Northern Serengeti (Kogatende) to Lake Natron
July 13 Lake Natron to Arusha
July 14 Arusha to Kilimanjaro International Airport
All of these locations don't mean much to you at the moment, but after the trip you will remember them forever as some of the best places you have ever visited!

Learn to connect with anyone in 2026
·OnlineOnlineI get it, we make these bold plans and then life happens and nothing changes… health, career, social life… so much to deal with and so little time.
The good news is there is one thing you can focus on that will increase your results in pretty much every single area of your life: becoming more socially confident. It’s the most important thing for your longevity, your sense of well being, your career success, your happiness quotient.
Across the board, your ability to connect with others is your BIGGEST advantage in life.
Come check out our free workshop to help you get to know where to meet like minded people in the real world, exactly what you should say and how to keep the conversation going once you get it started.
My name is Devon Ash and I’ve been teaching this stuff for 18 years through my company www.socialfluency.com so the things I am going to be sharing are reality tested and proven, I’m not just going to be regurgitating something I read somewhere or advice that ai has generated by scraping the internet. This is the real deal!
Come join us and learn the art and science of powerful communication.8 attendees
