A six-day introduction to the northern safari circuit, connecting Tarangire’s landscapes, the Serengeti plains and Ngorongoro Crater. Travel with a private guide and choose a lodge or camp level that suits your budget. The route balances transfers with full wildlife-viewing days.
A sample route to shape with your operator. The final programme confirms accommodation, meals, activities and transfers.
Meet your driver at the agreed arrival point and transfer to your Arusha accommodation. Settle in before a safari briefing covering the route, luggage, meals and daily pace. If your arrival time allows, enjoy a short orientation around town. Overnight in Arusha; accommodation and meals follow your quotation.
Leave Arusha after breakfast and travel to Tarangire National Park. Spend the day exploring with your guide, pausing for a picnic at an authorised site. The route follows current wildlife conditions rather than a fixed sighting checklist. Later, continue to a lodge or camp in the Tarangire or Karatu area.
Travel through the Ngorongoro highlands towards Serengeti National Park, allowing time for park formalities, lunch and scenic stops. Enjoy a game drive as you make your way to camp. This is a substantial transfer day; the final route and timings depend on your starting point, road conditions and camp location.
Start early with your guide to explore the habitats around your camp. Choose a full-day outing with a packed lunch or split morning and afternoon drives, depending on the agreed programme. Take time to observe wildlife behaviour and photograph the landscape. Return to the same camp for dinner and a second night.
Depart early for a guided game drive within Ngorongoro Crater, subject to the permit and access arrangements confirmed for your booking. Bring layers for the highlands and enjoy a picnic at an authorised location. After your allocated exploration time, ascend to the rim and continue to accommodation in the Karatu or highlands area.
Enjoy breakfast and travel back to Arusha with time for a lunch stop where included. Your driver will take you to the agreed hotel or departure point. Book onward flights only after the operator confirms a suitable connection window. An extra night in Arusha can be arranged if you prefer a more relaxed departure.
Private departure dates on request; availability must be confirmed.
Tell the operator your dates, group size, accommodation preferences and any accessibility or dietary needs. They will check the route, services and availability before providing a written quotation.
Weather, park access and local operating conditions can change the programme. Activities and wildlife sightings are not guaranteed. Optional experiences should be confirmed separately.
An enquiry creates a travel request; it does not reserve space or confirm a booking.
