The big highlights of the north in one week — elephants beneath Tarangire's baobabs, the endless Serengeti and the wildlife-packed Ngorongoro Crater. Ideal for a first safari or a shorter escape, with an optional beach extension on Zanzibar.
The complete northern circuit at an unhurried pace — on foot through Arusha National Park, two full days in Tarangire, the floor of the Ngorongoro Crater and two days in the Serengeti, before a bush flight back over the plains.
Our most complete journey — and our insider secret: Mkomazi National Park, refuge of the black rhino and the African wild dog, which hardly any visitor knows. Plus walking safaris, two full days in Tarangire, the Ngorongoro Crater and three nights in the heart of the Serengeti.
Designed for couples — with private honeymoon touches at Lions Paw on the crater rim and quiet nights at Sametu Camp in the heart of the Serengeti. The great highlights of the north, unhurried and all to yourselves.
