5-Day Mid-Range Safari Tarangire Serengeti
For a first time visitor to Tanzania it is easy to get caught up in trying to see everything at once. In our experience this can back fire on even the keenest wildlife expert, as after 3 days you are screaming to get out of the car and stretch your legs or enjoy a lie-in without having the guide trying to get to the next camp or lodge.
The Northern safari circuit offers a range of national parks such as Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park, Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the famous Ngorongoro Crater, the Serengeti National Park and let us not forget the compact but enchanting Arusha National Park. It's an ideal destination for a first time Africa traveller as well as a repeat destination. Both driving and fly in safaris are possible and there is wide variety of combinations with trekking and walking instead of only sitting in the safari vehicle for many days in a row.
