Why we love it
“It doesn’t get more iconic than Tanzania’s Northern safari circuit, the dramatic open plains and the sheer volume of migrating herds are an unrivalled highlight of the trip. But, we know that North Tanzania has much more to offer and have included some lesser-explored regions to ensure you see it all. From Arusha, you'll head to Tarangire National Park to marvel at the epic landscapes and great elephant herds before heading to Serengeti to track the thundering Great Wildebeest Migration and search for an up-close big game experience. Get ready for the safari adventure of a lifetime!”

01 Dec - 03 Dec
Tarangire National Park
Big trees, big game and big landscapes - this is a really special safari destination and works perfectly as your first taste of the Tanzanian Northern Circuit. It can be done in two nights and is worth noting that the game viewing can be hard from November-April due to rains, it is, however, much quieter which is a real perk.

Southern Serengeti
These southern plains are full of wildebeest and zebra from December through to March, as they settle on their migratory journey for a few months. With this comes vast numbers of predators and an action packed safari experience. We recommend at least 3 nights and you can fly in by light aircraft or drive from the Ngorongoro.

Northern Serengeti
Distinctively different to the Southern and Central plains of Africa's best known National Park. Rocky outcrops mark this area and the lodges take advantage of this with wonderful views. In July and October, this is the place to be for wildebeest river crossings and access is always by light aircraft.
