Northern Tanzania

The parks, in the order that makes sense

Tarangire, Lake Manyara, the Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti sit within a day of each other by road, so a first trip can take in three or four of them without spending the week driving. We plan the route around your dates and the season, not around a fixed departure.

Finish on the water

A short flight separates the parks from the reef, which is why most safaris end in Zanzibar. Stone Town, the spice farms, Jozani forest, the sandbanks and the dhows are all single days out from wherever you are staying, and we arrange them around your flights.
