From the vast open plains of the Serengeti, where wildlife roams freely in dramatic numbers, to the awe-inspiring Ngorongoro Crater, the largest unbroken volcanic caldera in the world, every moment is packed with adventure and discovery.

Start your journey in Arusha, the gateway to northern Tanzania’s safari circuit. After a restful night, head into the Serengeti, famous for its abundant wildlife and the spectacular Great Migration.
