Serengeti: Hot Air Balloon Flight
The best time to go rhino tracking in the Serengeti is during the dry season, from June to October, when the vegetation is not too thick, making it easier to spot the rhinos. The guides will take you on a game drive in search of the rhinos, and once they are spotted, you will be able to get up close to these magnificent animals.
It is important to note that rhino tracking in the Serengeti can be challenging due to the elusive nature of these animals. You may have to spend several hours searching for them, and even then, there is no guarantee that you will find them. However, the experience of being out in the wilderness and searching for these incredible creatures is an adventure in itself.
It is also essential to remember that rhinos are wild animals and should be treated with respect. It is essential to follow the rules and guidelines set by the park authorities and your guides to ensure both your safety and that of the rhinos.
In conclusion, rhino tracking in the Serengeti is an unbelievable experience that should not be missed by anyone visiting Tanzania. It is a unique opportunity to see these magnificent animals up close in their natural habitat and learn more about their conservation efforts.

I booked a customized tour with Amin for Aug 2025, for my family of four (kids are 8 and 10) visiting three parks in Kenya in 10 days.
It was so phenomenal. The trips itself was amazing, with fabulous guides and great accommodation (and the wildlife spectacular) but Amin’s involvement could not be faulted.
He listened to my requests, provided recommendations and helped us make our trip perfect.
He was so quick to respond and kept me up to date as the tour was created.
Even once we were in Africa he was regularly in touch, making sure we were happy and everything was going well.
I also should comment on how kind he was and went over and above when our flights out of Kenya were delayed (booked independently so he really didn’t need to care as the tour he assisted with was over) he provided support, ideas on what to do in Nairobi with kids and ensured the local team were assisting us.
I will say that he doesn’t specialize on Kenya, but worked with the local team to make our trip perfect.
Can’t recommend him enough.
Thank you Amin for a memorable safari
The trip was well organized, guides were knowledgeable and the 5 star all inclusive accommodations were beautiful with wild life around us
Amin would also check in with us to make sure everything was going smoothly
He even had surprise bdays cake set up for us!
We saw every wild animal we had wished for and even a kill and wilder beast crossing
The weather was a bit cool so dress warm if you visit the Serengeti in their winter season
I highly recommend Taaf Tours
My cousins and some friends had already booked a full tour with Taaaf. And I decided to join just a few months before the July trip. And thankfully, Amin at Taaaf was able to add me on to all the stays and I was able to join. It was such an amazing trip!!
We had a very good time and the tour arranged was excellent.
The hotels were very good, sight seeing was excellent. Our driver was full of knowledge and had lot of patience.
The group because of their age and physical problems found one journey in Botswana very uncomfortable.
Over all everyone enjoyed and have very good memories.
Asante Sana
Thank you thank you thank you for everything. We had an amazing time. Ben and George were excellent. They definitely were in their comfort zone more in the Masai Mara, as they were from the area but they were great in Amboseli too. They always could read the animal behour and our car was always in the best spot! It couldn’t have been luck every time.
Thank you also for the support last night with our flight issues. Am excited to be on our way but sad to be leaving.
We will be recommending you to friends and colleagues in canada
We have just said goodbye to Ben and George 😢. They were excellent
