The 3-day safari to Tarangire, Central Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater, was incredible. The scenery was spectacular, and we got to view all of the creatures. Anthony, our guide, was wonderful. He knows everything about the Serengeti, was quite friendly, and guided us to the best sites. I am delighted to suggest this tour company for any safari in Tanzania. Tanzania is very amazing. We suggest it for everyone.

This safari takes you to four of the best national parks in Tanzania.
Lake Manyara is a good soft introduction to the safari experience. It is a magical and pretty park that winds its way around a mainly forested driving route between the banks of soda water lake and the impressive rise of the Great Rift escarpment.
The Serengeti National Park is justifiably famous for its huge concentrations of wildlife, especially the big cats, as well as being the stomping ground of the Great Migration, a massive accumulation of 1.5 million wildebeest, 200,000 zebras and 350,000 gazelles stretching their legs over 1,200 miles in an
annual race to find enough water and green grass for their survival.
The Ngorongoro Crater is the world's largest intact caldera in an exceptional geographical position, forming a spectacular bowl of about 265 sq. km with sides up to 600m deep. It is home to as many as 20,000 to 30,000 wild animals at any given time.
The last national park on your itinerary is the Tarangire National Park, one of the more seasonal parks of Tanzania that boasts of great migratory movement and is a haven for bird lovers. The park also offers stunning scenery with its baobab-dotted landscape and presents a breath-taking concentration of elephants during the dry season.

I went on safari in Africa for the first time in my life, and I feel like-why didn't I come here sooner! During the first few days of the game drive, our guide showed us animals that we didn't even know we were looking for. Lions, cheetahs, and rhinos - I have seen them all, and every time the guide has made the place more alive with funny stories. When I arrived in Zanzibar, I felt like I was in a different world - white sand beaches, clear blue water, and sunsets. The service of Northern Masailand Safaris is so smooth and professional that the entire trip was stress-free.

We had an amazing time on our honeymoon safari. Our guides, Noel and Huruma, made sure that every moment was memorable when we were at Arusha, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara, Tarangire National Park, and Serengeti National Park.
We see many amazing animals like lions, elephants, cheetahs, giraffes, etc. Our accommodations were gorgeous, ideal for honeymooners, comfortable suites, a great view, and very tasty food. I recommend this company to all who want to enjoy nature and honeymoon.
Lake Manyara is considered to be a scenic gem, a bird-lovers delight. Ernest Hemingway described the national park as the 'loveliest' he had seen in Africa and people never have enough words to describe the experience of watching thousands of pink flamingoes resting around the lake. Other animals found at the national park include huge concentrations of wildebeest, zebra, giraffe and buffalo.
Your next adventure takes you to the iconic Serengeti National Park, home to the Great Migration. Those lucky enough to witness this phenomenon from up close have described it as a life-changing experience and it is easy to understand why. The sight of predatory action right in front of you or watching thousands of game animals trying to make their way across crocodile infested rivers is a sight you'll never forget.
The last leg of this journey takes you to the Ngorongoro Crater, an adventure unlike any other. The high walls of the crater prevented man from interfering with the ecosystem and also refrained the animals from interacting with the outer world. As a resut, the crater is home to some of the most exotic species on the planet, including the rare African black rhino. This is the best place to see the Big 5 on the same day, and the small geographical area also ensures that you never go back home feeling disappointed.

The Serengeti tops most Tanzania safari itineraries. A Masai word meaning “endless plains,” this protected ecosystem sprawls across 10,000 square miles. With a network of rivers ensuring year-round water, the region is incredibly rich in wildlife, though specific experiences, such as the Great Migration, vary with the seasons.Exceptional safari opportunities exist in the private reserves adjacent to Serengeti National Park, many of which are the exclusive domain of the camps we use. In addition to classic destinations like Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire, famed for its elephants and baobabs.
Best time to visit
June to September : If you’ve got just a week to spend in Africa, this compact safari is arguably the best way to do it. With six full DAY to explore the legendary Serengeti and world-class wonders of Ngorongoro Crater, you’ll be riding a wildlife high long after you return home. The Serengeti is the Great Plains of Africa, teeming with hoofed animals and predators in pursuit. The crater is the counterpoint: a volcanic caldera harboring Africa’s densest concentration of wildlife in one confined place.

Our 8-day safari was an unforgettable experience! We were mesmerized by the wildlife of Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti. The sight of flocks of pink flamingos, lions in the trees, and the Great Migration was truly unique.
The accommodation was great, especially the view from Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge. The knowledge and sincerity of our guides Benjamin and Focus made our experience even more special. This is a must-do trip for nature and wildlife lovers!

This safari trip is specifically designed for travelers to witness the Great Migration of more than two million animals, including wildebeest, gazelle, zebra, who move from North to South in search of grassland and water.
Nowhere in the world is there a movement of animals as immense as the Great Migration. The animals migrate from the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania to the greener pastures of the Maasai Mara National Reserve in Kenya during July through to October.
You will also visit four of the most outstanding and varied wildlife areas in Northern Tanzania safari. Encounter some of the most breathtaking scenery, animal and bird life.

Wow - not even sure where to begin. We did a 5-night 6 day safari with the local tour operator. It was difficult for us to select which company we were going to safari with and we couldn't have been more happy with our choice. We were always comparing our vehicle, food and guide info with others along the way and it seemed like we were always better off then those we met! :) Our guide Azaria has a true passion for wildlife and ensuring his guests are happy. He went above and beyond for us in many ways including helping us to buy bus tickets upon our return back to Arusha. Our chef Benjamin surprised us daily with his delicious meals. Peter (the owner) was very patient and answered my many emails with lots of details and quickly. We received quotes from a lot of companies and the one we picked is extremely competitive and we felt in the end priced very fair for the services provided. We camped for 4 nights and then headed to a mid-luxury lodge for our final night. Camping in the middle of the Serengeti was so cool and it was nice to end the adventure in a fancy place!
One thing that is very important when considering a company is having unlimited driving KM's. We didn't even know how important this was until we were chasing after a Cheetah and 2 other vehicles wouldn't follow as they were limited to the number of kilometres they could drive each day. Nothing stoped Azaria from trying to show us all the animals! :)
I would not hesitate to recommend this tour operator to anyone - working with a smaller company who us truly committed to customer satisfaction is totally the way to go for an expensive activity like a safari.

This is a short 4 day budget safari showcasing the very best of 3 of Northern Tanzania National Parks, starting with Lake Manyara with its flocks of flamingos to world renowned Serengeti National park, culminating at the 8th Natural Wonder of the World, The Ngorongoro Crater...
Accommodation is budget campsites while transport is in 4x4 safari land cruisers...
The Ngorongoro Crater is a breathtakingly beautiful setting and the best place in Tanzania to see the Big Five. However, as one of the world's most astonishing and renowned natural wonders, the Ngorongoro Crater does get busy, and at times very busy. Due to the crowds we recommend a two-night stay only here, then moving on to the Serengeti for a quieter, more private safari experience.
The crater and surrounding highlands together form one of Africa's most beautiful regions. Volcanic craters form stunning backdrops to some of the most fertile and richest grazing grounds in Africa. The most famous such crater is without question Ngorongoro, the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera and home to the highest density of big game in Africa, including all the big five and plenty of predators. Ngorongoro is justifiably one of the continent's most famous safari destinations.
Any Northern Tanzania Safari should ideally include a visit to the Serengeti: it is one of the most beautiful natural wildlife safari sites in the world, home to the Great Migration, and an exceptional place to interact with people from the Maasai tribe.

This is a 2 days safari where we will both explore the Ngorongoro Convervation area and the Lake Manyara National Park.
The Ngorongoro Conservation Area spans vast expanses of highland plains, savanna, savanna woodlands and forests. Established in 1959 as a multiple land use area, with wildlife coexisting with semi-nomadic Maasai pastoralists practicing traditional livestock grazing, it includes the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater, the world’s largest caldera. The property has global importance for biodiversity conservation due to the presence of globally threatened species, the density of wildlife inhabiting the area, and the annual migration of wildebeest, zebra, gazelles and other animals into the northern plains. Extensive archaeological research has also yielded a long sequence of evidence of human evolution and human-environment dynamics, including early hominid footprints dating back 3.6 million years.
Lake Manyara National Park is known for the flamingos that inhabit the lake. During the wet season they inhabit the edges of the lake in flocks of thousands but they are not so present during the dry season.
More than 400 species of birds inhabit the park and many remain throughout the year. Because of this Lake Manyara National Park is a good spot for bird watching. Visitors to the park can expect to see upwards of 100 different species of bird on any day.[2]
Leopards, lions, cheetahs, elephants, blue monkeys, dik-dik, gazelle, hippo, giraffe, impala, and more inhabit Lake Manyara Park and many can be seen throughout the year. There is a hippo pond at one end of the park where visitors can get out of their cars and observe from a safe distance. The leopards and lions are both known to lounge in the trees while not hunting for prey.
In short, this is a 2 days safari where you will experience magnificent wild life animals and nature at its best. For more details, please refer to the itinerary tab.
