Tour review

6 Days Tanzania Safari Adventure

Tanzania’s Northern Circuit is a renowned safari destination, offering a stunning variety of wildlife and landscapes. From the baobab-filled plains of Tarangire National Park to the Great Migration in Serengeti, this 6-day journey will immerse you in the heart of the African wilderness. Along with diverse wildlife viewing, you’ll also experience unique cultural encounters and breathtaking landscapes, culminating with a visit to the Ngorongoro Crater, one of the world's most famous natural wonders.

Best Time To Visit

The best time to visit the Northern Circuit is during the dry season, from June to October. This period offers optimal wildlife viewing, as animals congregate around water sources and the grass is low, making it easier to spot animals. The Great Migration in Serengeti is at its peak between July and October, particularly the dramatic river crossings in the northern Serengeti.
