Ndutu Wilderness Camp - Ndutu Plains - The Classic Safari Company

Africa

Africa is a place of immense natural beauty. As the cradle of civilisation, it is home to some of the most ancient and interesting cultures in the world and there is nowhere on earth where wildlife puts on a greater show.

Australia & New Zealand

When it comes to experiencing the great outdoors, our neck of the woods holds its own and then some! The wildlife here is weird and wonderful, the landscapes dramatic and the remoteness breathtaking. There are very few places on Earth you can find yourself quite so far from civilization.

India, Sri Lanka & Bhutan

The Indian subcontinent is known for its deep-rooted cultural traditions, mouth-watering cuisine and vibrant festivals. For centuries, India has enticed merchants and mercenaries to its mystical lands with the promise of untold riches and when it comes to opulent splendour, no one puts on a better show.

Latin America

Stretching over a huge latitudinal range, Latin America boasts everything from soaring mountains to steamy jungles and searing deserts to ice fields. Ancient civilisations rub shoulders with pulsating modern cities and the avant garde food scene is to die for. This continent has it all - viva Latin America!

Rest of the World

Through our insatiable curiosity and continual travel to the world’s wildest places, we have unearthed an array of incredible experiences that don’t necessarily fit the mould but simply must be shared.

Antarctica

Owned by no one, visited by a few, Antarctica is the world’s coldest, windiest and wildest continent and truly the world’s ultimate travel frontier. Magnificent icebergs, carved from the elements into natural ice sculptures float serenely whilst seals bask on their icy shelves. Humpback whales with barnacled heads breach the glassy surface of the ocean and busybody penguins chatter in their thousands.

Arctic Circle

The Arctic Circle is the 'kingdom of the polar bear' - a spectacular wilderness of glaciers, mountains, fjords and breathtaking icebergs. The Arctic is also home to the rich and unique culture of the Inuit people, who have survived in this harsh landscape for over 9,000 years.

Argentina

Stretching nearly 3,500-kilometres to the very southern tip of South America, Argentina is the land of the tango, gauchos, polo, malbec, glacier-topped mountains and perfectly grilled steaks. Argentina’s cultural heritage is the perfect partner to its natural beauty which ranges from tropical rainforests to open ‘pampas’ grasslands, icy glaciers and scorched deserts.

Australia

We can’t help but rave about our own continent-sized country. From hiking the Flinders Ranges to beach glamping on the edge of Ningaloo Reef and fan boating through the wild wetlands of the Northern Territory, some of the best wilderness experiences can be found in our very own back yard.

Australia & New Zealand

Bhutan

Enigmatic, unspoilt and deeply spiritual, the Kingdom of Bhutan is regarded as one of the world's last ‘Shangri‐La's’. It measures its wealth not by GDP but by ‘Gross National Happiness’, and is carbon negative by absorbing more carbon than it emits. For a limited number of visitors, this means peaceful forests, authentic cultural heritage and a sense of spiritual purity.

Botswana

Safe, peaceful & democratic, with a Smart Traveller green stamp of approval, Botswana stands as a pillar of the African community, leading the way with visionary politics, sustainability and conservation. These factors, combined with some of the most pristine wilderness and highest game densities in the world, make it the destination of choice for any aspirational safari-goer.

Brazil

Brazil makes up almost 50% of the continent and borders every South American nation except for Ecuador and Chile – it is vast! From the thundering falls of Iguaçu to the Amazon and the Atlantic, it buzzes with festival spirit. Known for its beautiful, fun-loving people, this immense country knows how to celebrate life!

Chile

Stretched out longitudinally along the Pacific coast, Chile is packed with phenomenal scenery, niche biospheres and geological idiosyncrasies. Together, the world’s highest volcano, the driest desert, rainforests and hanging glaciers have all created striking landscapes, each inspiring unforgettable adventures.

Patagonia

Stretched out longitudinally along the Pacific coast, Chile is packed with phenomenal scenery, niche biospheres and geological idiosyncrasies. Together, the world’s highest volcano, the driest desert, rainforests and hanging glaciers have all created striking landscapes, each inspiring unforgettable adventures.

Colombia

It is often said that in Colombia you get five destinations for the price of one: the Pacific Coast, the Andes, the Amazon, the eastern plains and the Caribbean. Across the country this diversity has given rise to one of the most impressive and innovative gastronomic scenes of the world as modern chefs turn natural abundance and rare ingredients upside down.

Ecuador & Galápagos

Amazonian rainforests, Andean peaks, foggy cloud forests, the Galápagos Islands and a rich indigenous heritage – all can be found in Ecuador. Split down the middle by a chain of snow-capped volcanoes, the mighty Amazon lies to the east while cloud forests, an untouched coastline and, of course, the awe-inspiring Galápagos Islands lie to the west.

Egypt

For thousands of years Egypt has been the playground of emperors and kings. Great civilisations have risen from its sandy interiors and the Nile continues to bring life to an otherwise barren land. Much of the scenery has barely changed since biblical times and the entire nation is wrapped in an ancient mysticism which has beguiled writers and romantics for centuries.

Ethiopia

Ethiopia is an awe-inspiring and intriguing forgotten land. Its story begins with the emergence of early human-ape homins including the famous ‘Lucy’ and its history is laden with the treasures of great empires and faiths. The rich tribal culture is testament to the pride of a country that has never been officially colonised.

India

As one of the most diverse countries in the world, India offers incomparable variety. Walk the streets of any Indian city and find a dizzying array of religions, languages, food and culture that few countries can boast. Explore secretive jungles, spice-laden markets, places of pilgrimage and fairy-tale castles lost in time.

India, Sri Lanka & Bhutan

Kenya

Kenya is the home of the original safari (the word ‘safari’ means journey in KiSwahili) and is still, quite deservedly, Africa’s most iconic wildlife destination. One-tenth of all land in Kenya is designated as national parks and reserves, the most famous being the Maasai Mara, which plays host to the annual migration of thousands of wildebeest and zebra.

Latin America

Madagascar

Madagascar’s plants and animals include some of the most peculiar life forms on the planet. The wild National Parks are teeming with dancing lemurs, aye-ayes, fossas (a cat-like predator), rare birds, colourful chameleons, frogs, lizards, butterflies and a host of weird and wonderful insects and plants – a staggering 80% of which are only found on this island.

Malawi

Malawi boasts undiscovered scenery, wildlife strongholds and adventurous activities to rival any of those of her better known neighbours. The Great Rift Valley has gauged an immense chasm down her eastern flank which now, brimming with crystal clear water, forms Africa’s third-largest lake: Lake Malawi.

Morocco

A brief overview describing Morocco's highlights would outweigh War and Peace and still only skim the surface. The exotic colours, history and culture that have attracted travellers from time immemorial are still vibrantly visible and unlike anything else Africa has to offer.

Mozambique

Mozambique’s beaches are the main pull for most travellers. Endless swathes of white sand sweep dreamily along the coastline, palm-fringed freshwater beaches hug Lake Malawi and the Quirimbas Archipelago is a remote paradise of azure waters, mangrove forests and community-based conservation projects.

Namibia

Straddling two great deserts, Namibia is a country of sweeping sands and eerie landscapes. Dramatic environments host spectacular desert-adapted wildlife & fascinating tribal communities, whilst the cities are a contradictory muddle of modern African vivacity and old world German influence.

New Zealand

Known affectionately as the land of the long white cloud, our nearest neighbour is our go-to for cool climate explorations amidst epic landscapes. The trails are uncrowded, the ecology fascinating, the thermal pools inviting and the food and wine scene delectable...although jury’s still out on who invented the pavlova!

Peru

High Andean peaks where majestic condors soar, steamy rainforests of the Amazon basin, nearly limitless coastal destinations, vast deep-blue lakes and the almost mythical Machu Picchu, all this and more can be found in Peru.

zz – Polar Regions

Walk in the footsteps of the great explorers as you journey to the ends of our planet and encounter spectacles that few have ever witnessed. Expeditionary cruises to the two polar regions share certain similarities but the two experiences are also, quite literally, poles apart.

Republic of Congo

The Congo is an unspoilt conservation hotspot and exotic safari destination. The safari experience here combines river ecosystems and savannahs with wildlife rich bais (clearings) and steamy jungles teeming with forest elephants, chimpanzees, butterflies, colourful funghi, brilliant birdlife and plenty of primates including the critically endangered western lowland gorilla.

Rest of the World

Rwanda

Known as the ‘Land of a Thousand Hills’ thanks to its swathes of mist-shrouded mountains, Rwanda lies in the heart of Africa as the emerald jewel of the continent’s crown. Home to one third of the world’s remaining mountain gorillas, Rwanda offers one of the greatest wildlife experiences on earth.

São Tomé and Príncipe

São Tomé and Príncipe is one nation consisting of two remote volcanic islands marooned 140 miles off the coast of Gabon. The landscape is a lost world of dense jungle, spires of primordial rock and deserted beaches. Activities centre around the natural world with plenty of snorkelling, wreck diving, turtle watching and hiking to keep you occupied.

South Africa

South Africa is one of the world’s top travel destinations offering a unique blend of scenery, culture, wildlife and activities for all ages and interests. The cities are dynamic and cosmopolitan, wild landscapes span mountains, savannahs and deserts, and the combination of sub-tropical waters and colder Atlantic currents provide a rich diversity of marine wildlife.

Sri Lanka

Few islands in the world offer the diversity that exists in Sri Lanka: ancient cities, rich religious festivals, colonial memories, rolling tea plantations, an astonishing variety of bird and animal wildlife and some of the best beaches in the Indian ocean. It showcases a bustling and chaotic way of life yet enchants visitors with a potpourri of cultures, religions, races, customs and its sheer natural beauty.

Tanzania

With National Parks and game reserves covering 28% of the country, Tanzania has more land devoted to wildlife than anywhere else in the world and the game viewing in Tanzania is unparalleled. The high point of the year is the spectacular wildebeest migration when great herds cross the northern plains and plunge through the rivers of the Serengeti.

Serengeti Safari Tour

With National Parks and game reserves covering 28% of the country, Tanzania has more land devoted to wildlife than anywhere else in the world and the game viewing in Tanzania is unparalleled. The high point of the year is the spectacular wildebeest migration when great herds cross the northern plains and plunge through the rivers of the Serengeti.

Uganda

Uganda lays claim to an astonishing number of primate species, some of the richest birding in Africa, plenty of plains game and some elusive and unusual big cats. No other country in Africa ticks all these boxes.

Zambia

Zambia offers impressive wildlife diversity as well as some of the wildest and most remote game areas on the continent. It is also the land of the legendary African walking safari and the concept of exploring the bush on foot over multiple days was first pioneered in the South Luangwa.

Zimbabwe

Zimbabwe is rich in natural wonders, cultural and historical highlights. Zimbabwe’s eco-operators and conservationists have fought tirelessly to see its wild area flourish once more and the passionate guides are among the best in Africa. Today it proudly resumes its rightful position as Africa’s pink-diamond and the safari destination of choice for those in the know.
