Into The Dust

A Journey into the heart of the wild

Into The Dust is a hand crafted eight-day safari designed for those who crave the raw beauty of Tanzania. At the heart of this adventure is the dramatic Mara River crossing, a powerful moment of nature that leaves you in awe.

No two moments are ever the same, and that’s part of what makes this experience so unique. The name 'Into the Dust' reflects the very essence of this journey—the dust kicked up by the herds as they make their way across the river, a symbol of the wild, chaotic energy of the migration.

What truly sets this safari apart, though, is our expert guides. With years of experience and a deep connection to this land, they’ve handcrafted this itinerary to ensure you don’t miss a single moment of this incredible drama.
