About this trip
This seven-day private safari covers Tanzania's Northern Circuit in one go, taking in Lake Manyara, the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire. It's a private departure, so it runs every day and the pace is yours to set.
You travel in a custom 4x4 safari vehicle with an open roof for game viewing, and because it's private, seating and vehicle space aren't shared with strangers.
Meals, accommodation and park entry fees are all included, so the main planning is done for you before you arrive.
What you'll do
- Game drives in Serengeti National Park
- Descend into Ngorongoro Crater for wildlife viewing
- Spot elephants and baobabs in Tarangire National Park
- Visit Lake Manyara for its birdlife and forest scenery
- Travel in a custom 4x4 with an open roof for unobstructed viewing
- Private departure, so it's just your own group in the vehicle
- Discounted offers may apply for April and May departures
- Covers four parks in seven days, so expect a fair amount of driving between them
Worth it if you want exceptional wildlife encounters with knowledgeable guides and comfortable lodges. Think twice if airport collection process concerns you or you're tight on budget for extras like Maasai visits.
- Guides like Emmanuel, Moody, and Albert consistently deliver deep knowledge, finding animals through radio networks and making game drives genuinely engaging.
- Seven days covers all major Northern Tanzania parks comprehensively; reviewers saw Big Five, leopards twice, 150+ lions, thousands of wildebeest, and felt time was too short.
- Airport pickup was disorganised for at least one group; names hidden, requiring confirmation before assistance, raising red flags about ground operator practices.
- Maasai Boma cultural visits carry £40 per-person fees not flagged upfront; hot air balloon rides available but costs unclear from reviews.
