6 Days Tanzania Northern-Circuit

Arrival at the Arusha International Airport, meet and greet with the guide and give you a short briefing about the trip. Transfer to the Hotel, check in and acclimatize to the climate of Tanzania. Dinner and overnight

Pick up in Arusha at your hotel after breakfast. Later embark on your journey We travel west and then south, entering the game-rich region of Tanzania called the Northern Safari Circuit. Our first game viewing destination is Tarangire National Park, known for its big herds of elephants. We explore the game park in a customized 4×4 safari vehicle with a pop-up roof for maximum visibility. We stop in the bush for a picnic lunch on our game drive.
Tarangire hosts an array of wild animals, including lions and buffalos, as well as various antelopes, wildebeest, giraffes and zebras. The national park covers some 2600km² of wilderness, characterized by undulating plains dotted with baobab and acacia trees.

Breakfast at the tented lodge before continuing our exploration of the Northern Safari Circuit. Our drive takes us north-west towards Serengeti National Reserve, via the village of Mto Wa Mbu and Karatu town. We travel into the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, making our way to higher lying ground. Along the way we stop to admire the views over the Rift Valley.

Heading further along the rim of the Ngorongoro crater we drive down the outer slopes towards the open plains of the Serengeti. Driving past rural villages where the pastoralist Maasai people live we make our way to the Serengeti National Park. Arriving at the entry gate near Naabi Hill you can take a short walk to the viewpoint and survey the vast grasslands from above. Driving into the central area of Serengeti Park, known as the Seronera section, the game viewing adventure continues. We embark on a game drive en route to Kati Kati Tented Camp, stopping for lunch along the way.

Breakfast at the comfortable tented camp and then we set off for an adventure-packed day of game viewing in this top African game park. We spend the whole of day three exploring the Serengeti National Park of Tanzania, pausing for a picnic lunch in the wilderness. Here we will hopefully see the Big Five of Africa (lion, leopard, rhino, elephant and buffalo), as well as a dazzling assortment of other wildlife.
During and after the rainy seasons you may be lucky enough to catch the Great Migration in full force. Usually between October and November, and again from April to June, masses of plains game migrate across the rivers and plains of the Serengeti ecosystem. During the annual migration hundreds of thousands of herbivores (mostly wildebeest, gazelles and zebras), move between Masai Mara and the Serengeti along an ancient route. The migration catches the attention of the abundant predators of Serengeti, drawn to the easy prey of the migrating herds. The timing and path of the Great Migration varies from season to season, but your safari guide uses his or her knowledge to find the optimal spots for catching the spectacle.
After a remarkable day of game viewing in Serengeti National Park, we return to the tented camp surrounded by the African wilderness. Dinner and overnight

Day four starts with breakfast at camp, as the sun rises. Then we take a game drive through Serengeti NP on our way out of the national park with a lunch stop. Keep your eyes open for wildlife, especially in the early morning hours when animals and birds are more active. Next, we visit the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, home to one of the highest concentrations of wildlife in Africa. We descend to the Ngorongoro Crater floor, taking in stunning views of the world’s largest unflooded caldera on the way down. The crater is home to the Big Five and almost every kind of big mammal found in Africa.
After a rewarding game drive in this World Heritage Site we climb out of the crater following another route. If there is time after our arrival, we may take a walk in the coffee plantations.

The day begins with a leisurely breakfast at the lodge, before retracing our steps to Arusha. Our magical Tarangire, Serengeti & Ngorongoro Safari comes to a close at about midday in Arusha. Have breakfast enroute and enough water on board.
