6-Day Semi-Luxury Great Migration Safari in Tanzania

Arusha is the gateway to Tanzania’s world-famous safari destinations. Nestled at the foot of Mount Meru, the city offers a vibrant mix of culture, scenic landscapes, and warm hospitality. It serves as the starting point for unforgettable adventures to the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire, and Lake Manyara, making it the perfect place to begin your safari.

We think you’ll be impressed with Tarangire National Park. Most visitors love the distinct shapes of the baobab trees silhouetted against the sky that make this place feel like a fairy-tale African landscape. Or visitors remember the elephants that roam in family bands everywhere throughout the park. If you’re lucky, you’ll also encounter the big cats – lions especially, but also cheetahs and leopards – that are always a possibility here. And there’s a fair degree of certainty that you will tick wildebeest, giraffe, hippo, buffalo and zebra off your
wildlife-viewing list.

Ngorongoro is a special place and the first time that you descend onto the crater floor is like no other safari experience in Africa. This is a world unto itself, one where you’ll encounter the crater’s 600-strong population of hyenas, as well as critically endangered black rhinos. You’ll also find elephants with larger-thanaverage tusks, and more than 50 lions living in the crater. But it’s the sheer beauty of Ngorongoro that will most likely live longest in your memory. From early morning, mist rises from the crater, revealing steep, forested walls, secret waterways where hippos wallow, and a world of abundant wildlife hidden away from the rest of
the world.

You really do have so much to look forward to on your visit to the Northern Serengeti. The varied landscape of rolling hills, grasslands, light woodlands and the Mara River should be the scene for some fantastic animal encounters. Watch especially for elephants and big cats. And the safari trails up in the park’s north are generally much quieter than they are elsewhere in the park.

Your Tanzanian safari draws to a close, and we’re sure that you will have enjoyed it as much as we have.
