Who stays the longest in the Serengeti ?

Every ground operator I'm aware of will let you spend as many nights
as you wish in the Serengeti if you book a custom trip, which is often
little or no more expensive than going on the pre-packaged trips.

I spent seven nights in the central Serengeti last year and recently
spent seven more nights in the middle of the migration in late January
at the Serengeti/NCA border.

All you have to do is ask (and be able to pay for it :).

Hello,

I spent many days in and around the the Serengeti, probably the best
thing to do if you want to make it more economical is to find some
travel mates. If you are not to worried about costs, you still don't
have to spend a fortune. All you have to do is either go to Arusha and
find a travel agent there or look on the internet for one. You can
also just look around and hire a vehicle in Arusha. You can usually
get a vehicle/driver/cook and spend as many days as you want.

Email Darryl at, versatile@habari.co.tz and ask him to organize you a
safari. He used to be in the Safari business and still helps people
out. Tell him that John told you about him.

Here are three low-to-mid range (price) ground operators in Arusha
that book custom trips ... Good Earth, Roy Safaris, Sunny Safaris ...
there are literally dozens more but these three are a good place to
start.

You can also go thru a travel agent and they will book you with the
ground operator they use but it's often less expensive if you book
direct.
