Itinerary
Arusha to Arusha National Park
Arusha
We will commence the Northern Circuit Safari by traveling to Arusha National Park. The game drive will travel along the shores of Lake Momella and through the bronzed bush where the Ngurduto Crater Buffaloes, waterbucks, giraffes, warthogs, zebras and Gazelle reside throughout the year. The elusive leopards and elephants tend to be shy at Arusha but there is a chance of spotting them. Renowned for flawless memories, the Northern Circuit Safari offers more than the exquisite game drives.

Arusha to Tarangire
Tarangire
The Tarangire National Park is a scenic haven that contains a high diversity of bird species. The African elephant is the largest mammal on land and the herds in the park are a remarkable sight. Tarangire’s wildlife includes elephants, lions, giraffes, warthogs, ostriches, impalas, cheetah, mongoose, buffaloes, and baboons. We will drive to Mto wa Mbu
Lilac Lodge
Mto wa Mbu to Serengeti
Serengeti
You will continue your journey to Serengeti National Park. It contains the world’s largest concentration of wildlife including zebra, gazelles, lions, wildebeest, elephants and giraffe. The seasonal migration of the masses of wildebeest is a magnificent sight. Serengeti means ‘The Land that Moves on Forever’; the splendid plains of savannah validate this. We will stop for lunch on a kopje (rock outcropping) then the game drive will journey further into the park. Once the game drive is over,
Mbugani Camp
Serengeti to Ngorongoro Crater
Serengeti
Our early morning game drive is exhilarating. The calls of the animals are clear and scents of crisp air linger. Tracks left by predators on the prowl are untouched and could lead us to their den. The splendid rays of orange, pink and purple start to emerge on the horizon as the birds’ melodies begin to harmonize. The park is home to leopards, cheetahs, buffaloes, elands, baboons, hippos, rhinos and various antelope. A delicious lunch will be served at the park.
Lobo Wildlife Lodge
Ngorongoro Crater to Lake Manyara
Ngorongoro Crater
We will drive to the Ngorongoro Crater early in the morning. We will have a scrumptious picnic lunch and go on a game drive. The large amount of wildlife as well as the fauna and flora are traits that attribute towards the title of ‘Africa’s Garden of Eden’. Due to the lofty structure, few animals migrate in and out of the crater, so there is a big chance of seeing every member of ‘The Big 5’ in one day. You could also encounter vultures, zebra, hippo, wildebeest and hyenas.
Eileen’s Trees Inn
Lake Manyara to Arusha
Lake Manyara
Lake Manyara National Park, can only be described as an array of vistas and the tree climbing lions roam the savannah plains. With over four hundred species, Lake Manyara is a birdwatcher’s delight. Some of the wildlife includes buffalo, zebras, wildebeest etc. A lovely picnic lunch will be served in the park and after the game drive in the late afternoon your trip will come to an end and you will be transferred to the Airport for your departure flight.
