The Journey at a Glance

Experience the highlights of northern Tanzania on this classic 6-day safari, combining the elephant-rich landscapes of Tarangire, the wildlife-filled plains of the Serengeti, and the extraordinary Ngorongoro Crater.

Begin in Arusha before travelling to Tarangire National Park, where ancient baobabs, seasonal wetlands and the Tarangire River create a spectacular setting for wildlife viewing. Continue through the highlands into the legendary Serengeti, arriving in time for an afternoon game drive across the central plains.

Spend a full day exploring the Seronera Valley, searching for resident wildlife and big cats among its open grasslands, river courses and granite kopjes. The journey then continues towards the Ngorongoro Highlands, with a morning game drive offering another opportunity for wildlife encounters along the way.

Your final safari takes you deep into the Ngorongoro Crater, exploring its diverse habitats and remarkable concentration of wildlife before returning to Arusha.

A beautifully balanced northern Tanzania safari that brings together three iconic destinations, diverse landscapes and unforgettable wildlife encounters in one seamless journey.

FAQs

What is the best time to go on a Tanzania safari?
Tanzania offers excellent safari experiences throughout the year, but the best time depends on what you want to see. The dry season is generally popular for wildlife viewing, while different periods offer unique experiences such as the wildebeest migration and calving season.
Yes. Migsam Safaris can tailor your journey around your preferred destinations, travel dates, accommodation style, activities, budget, and interests. Whether you are planning a luxury family safari, honeymoon, migration safari, or a private wildlife adventure, the itinerary can be customized.

This depends on your interests and the length of your trip. Popular destinations include Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire National Park, and Lake Manyara National Park.
