This 8 Days Tarangire, Lake Eyasi, Serengeti, Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater Safari Tour will take you through the Northern Safari Circuit in Tanzania. Primarily, you will be visiting Tarangire National Park, Lake Eyasi region, Serengeti National Park, Lake Manyara National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater.
A visit to the Ngorongoro Crater is an experience of a lifetime. There are few places that have wildlife densities and variety at this level. It is not unusual to see the Big Five in one day-and all this in the most amazing setting with a backdrop of the 600m/1968ft high crater wall.
Lake Manyara National Park provides the perfect introduction to Tanzania’s birdlife. More than 400 species have been recorded, and even a first-time visitor to Africa might reasonably expect to observe 100 of these in one day. Highlights include thousands of pink-hued flamingos on their perpetual migration, as well as other large waterbirds such as pelicans, cormorants and storks.
There is more to Serengeti than large mammals. Gaudy agama lizards and rock hyraxes scuffle around the surfaces of the park’s isolated granite koppies. A full 100 varieties of dung beetle have been recorded, as have 500-plus bird species, ranging from the outsized ostrich and bizarre secretary bird of the open grassland, to the black eagles that soar effortlessly above the Lobo Hills.
Please refer to the itinerary to find out what you'll be doing each day on this safari tour.

Machame, known as the "Whiskey" route, is a popular route to the mountain. Compared with Marangu, the days on Machame are longer and the walks are steeper. It is considered a difficult route, better suited for more adventurous folks, and those with some hiking or backpacking experience. Machame approaches from the southwest and descends using Mweka, rewarding climbers with views of the expansive Shira Plateau.
Of the seven main routes used to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, the Machame route is one of the most popular paths. It is the route of choice for many people because it provides impressive views and a variety of habitats. About 50% of all climbers, and most seasoned climbers, mostly choose the Machame route.
Join us on a journey to the top of the roof of Africa, and we promise to present an adventure unlike any you've seen before.
This safari is of small number of days but it will give you an opportunity to discover the African wilderness secrets. It is designed for two people sharing accommodation. It will take you to the famous closely related three park namely, Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater. Our clients who have so far taken this safari, have been very pleased with it, we can assure you of that.
Recently, a rare white (albino) giraffe has been discovered at Tarangire National Park. No other place in the world has this rare creature been seen. You may be lucky to spot this giraffe named Omo as well.

These safaris let you live in the midst of the African jungle, watch the wildlife as it comes to watch you, track predators deep in the bush and see some of the most unique species on the planet. African safaris are known to bring out the adventurer in you, and Tanzania is perhaps the best place to enjoy your African adventure.
In this tour, you are taken on game drive activities with local guides. Your guide is sure to passionate about taking photographs and can set you and the vehicle the right way and encourage the best use of light.

Budget Camping Safaris are among the most popular options for visitors who want to explore Tanzania’s many game parks and other wilderness areas. Camping Safaris allow you to visit the best national parks in Tanzania and get great safari experiences, while then camping in the bush or by the parks at night - where you will then be able to socialise with other people camping also.
We provide mainly smaller tents having a capacity of two people whereby mattresses are put on the sewn-in ground sheet and all preparations at the camp are done on arrival with clients participating with pitching the tents. Washroom and shower room facilities are set separate from the tents and they are made to provide reasonable hygienic standard.
This is a real authentic African experience - still with the benefits and comforts of a safari guide, a cook and few more attendants to take care of all your needs. This tour thrives to provide the highest level of comfort to allow clients experience the intimate contact with the bush and the live sounds of the African nights that gives a truly authentic adventure.

The Machame route is regarded as the most scenic of the trails to trek Mount Kilimanjaro. You ascend gradually through the forest until you emerge onto the Moorland of Shira Plateau, known for offering some of the best views of the Kibo Peak and the Great Mawenzi.
Theoretically, you could also extend the trek to increase your summit chances, but if you can afford a longer trek then the Shira or Lemosho route are better options. They share the same scenic path for the last four days to the summit…
The days are spent taking an easy walk ''pole pole'' through our professional licensed mountain guides and happy support crews. Please see our day-to-day itinerary for more details about this Machame Route tour.

Lights on Africa Destinations & Safaris gave us a tour that was incredibly rich in time. On the very first day I saw elephants, lions on trees, and innumerable colorful birds in Lake Manyara. Then Sarangeti - it was like a dream to see lions hunting live here. The moment when Ngorongoro descended into the crater on the last day will be remembered forever. The knowledge and sincerity of the guide are excellent.

The Great Wildebeest Migration
The great Serengeti wildebeest migration is the movement of vast numbers of the Serengeti's wildebeest, accompanied by large numbers of zebra, and smaller numbers of Grant's gazelle, Thompson's gazelle, eland and impala. These move in an annual pattern which is fairly predictable. They migrate throughout the year, constantly seeking fresh grazing lands and it's now thought that they are looking for better quality water.
Witness one of the world's most stunning natural spectacles - the Great Migration! Hundreds of thousands of wildebeest and zebras make their way across the Serengeti every year, in a breath-taking spectacle of beauty and savagery. During this special 7-days game drives and safari trip you will spend four full days in the Serengeti National Park, probably the world's best safari park, observing this incredible journey.
You will also have 1 cultural tour with the Hadzabe people, and learn about their way of living, including meeting the bushmen. Aside from Serengeti we will also spend one full day in the famous Ngorongoro Crater, famous for its dense wildlife population.
