As Lion King fever sweeps across the country following the much-anticipated release of Disney's remake of this classic movie, why not follow in the footsteps of Simba and Nala on an escorted tour to the African Savannah with Shearings Holidays.

From getting up close and personal with lions, cheetahs, zebras and giraffes on game drives and taking a boat trip across Lake Naivasha looking for Hippos, to visiting a Maasai village to experience local life and staying in luxury tented safari lodges, Shearings new 10-day 'Safari The Maasai Mara & The Serengeti' tour has it all.

The itinerary travels from the midnight blue skies of the Maasai Mara in Kenya to the wild golden plains of the Serengeti in Tanzania. There are game drives aplenty to enjoy at a host of locations including: the Maasi Mara National Reserve; the Serengeti National Park; inside the crater at the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the Tarangire National Park.
