A private 13-day Tanzania journey through Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Arusha National Park, Lake Natron and Lake Eyasi.
Our most complete northern journey, taking the remote road via Lake Natron into the northern Serengeti and ending with the crater and Lake Eyasi.
Your driver-guide meets you at Kilimanjaro International Airport and drives you to your lodge near Arusha. After a safari briefing, the rest of the day is yours to relax after the flight.
A half-day game drive or canoe safari in Arusha National Park, beneath Mount Meru, with giraffe, buffalo and black-and-white colobus monkeys.
A full day in Tarangire, elephant country. Large herds gather along the Tarangire River beneath giant baobab trees, alongside giraffe, zebra, buffalo and lion. Lunch is a picnic in the park.
Choose a game drive in Lake Manyara National Park, below the Rift Valley wall, or a cultural walk through Mto wa Mbu village with its banana farms, markets and local crafts.
Drive through Maasai country into the Rift Valley to Lake Natron, beneath the volcano Ol Doinyo Lengai, where flamingos feed on the soda flats.
A morning walk to the waterfall or the flamingo shoreline, then a scenic drive via Loliondo into the quiet northern Serengeti.
An extra day placed where the migration is: river crossings in the north (July–October), the western corridor (May–June) or the calving plains in the south (January–March).
A full day of morning and afternoon game drives across the Serengeti, searching for lion, cheetah and leopard among the kopjes and river woodlands. An optional sunrise balloon flight can be added.
Your guide follows the wildlife to wherever it is that month — the central plains, the western corridor, the southern calving grounds or the north — for another full day in the Serengeti.
Descend early into the Ngorongoro Crater for a game drive on the crater floor, one of the best places in Africa to see black rhino, along with lion, buffalo, elephant and flamingos. Picnic lunch by the hippo pool.
An early start to spend the morning with the Hadzabe hunter-gatherers, then visit Datoga blacksmiths on the shores of Lake Eyasi.
A relaxed morning, then the drive back to Arusha with an optional stop at a coffee farm or craft market.
After breakfast, your guide transfers you to Kilimanjaro, Arusha or Dar es Salaam airport for your onward flight. Kwaheri — until next time.
