8 Days 7 Nights — Arusha, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater & Tarangire

Tanzania's northern circuit in full — seven nights across five extraordinary parks.

This tour starts and ends in Arusha, with road transfers between all locations. Central Serengeti is the farthest point — 7 hours from Arusha each way. To save drive time, you can fly directly into Central Serengeti where your safari vehicle and guide will be waiting. We will reroute the itinerary to cover all parks included in the original itinerary with the same choice of accommodations and the same number of nights. This is called a Fly-in Safari. Alternatively, we can reroute so that you drive from Arusha on Day 1, cover the other parks first, then end at Central Serengeti — flying out from there to Arusha or other cities. This is called a Fly-out Safari.
