It is here, in the far northern Serengeti, close to Nimali Mara, where instinct, peril, and survival collide with breathtaking [...]

A day on safari at Nimali Tarangire

It's an ancient tempo that's measured by the passage of the sun and moon, keeping pace with their rising and falling, marking the beginning and ending of both day and night. Some call it Mother Nature's metronome, but here at Nimali we like to think of it as Africa's heartbeat - the constant pulse of the [...]

The cheetah is the speed freak of the Serengeti and the natural equivalent of an F1 supercar.
