It takes you off the beaten track of the traditional Northern Circuit with a visit to the spectacular Lake Natron one of Tanzania’s most unique destinations before heading to the legendary Serengeti National Park, the magnificent Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the elephant paradise of Tarangire National Park.

Your journey starts with a warm welcome to Arusha, the safari capital of Tanzania. Relax after your international flight and prepare for exciting days ahead. The next morning travel through the beautiful and scenic Maasai lands towards the remote and beautiful Lake Natron, located beneath the dramatic slopes of the active volcano Ol Doinyo Lengai, known by the Maasai as the “Mountain of God.” This stunning destination is a must-see, known for its incredible red alkaline lakes, thousands of lesser flamingos, stunning Rift Valley scenery, waterfalls and real Maasai culture.

Explore Lake Natron in a whole day with the family friendly activities. Hike to the beautiful Ngare Sero Waterfalls, swim in the refreshing natural pools, see flamingos on the lakeshores and learn about the traditional Maasai culture. Kids love exploring this unspoiled landscape and learning about one of the most fascinating ecosystems in East Africa.

We continue our journey into the world famous Serengeti National Park with endless golden plains as far as the eye can see Serengeti has the highest density of wildlife in Africa and game viewing is excellent throughout the year. Families will have great fun on game drives looking for lions snoozing under the shade of acacia trees, huge herds of elephants, elegant giraffes, playful zebras, inquisitive cheetahs, elusive leopards and myriad other wildlife that inhabit this unique eco-system.

Spend two full days on an unforgettable exploration of the Serengeti with experienced professional safari guides. Each game drive is unique, as animal behaviour varies throughout the day, providing different surprises. Depending on the season you might even see part of the spectacular Great Wildebeest Migration as millions of wildebeest, zebras and gazelles move across the plains looking for fresh grazing.

Leave the Serengeti and head into the spectacular Ngorongoro Conservation Area, a UNESCO World Heritage site famous for its spectacular scenery and rich wildlife. Venture into the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera, the famed Ngorongoro Crater, where one of Africa’s densest wildlife populations roams its natural walls. This wonderful ecosystem offers great opportunities to spot black rhino, lions, elephants, buffaloes, hippos, hyenas, flamingos and many types of antelopes all on one game drive.

After your crater safari, head for the pretty town of Karatu, surrounded by lush coffee farms and rolling highlands. It is a tranquil place to unwind before the last safari experience and ideal for families.

On the last day you will visit the famous Tarangire National Park, famous for its huge elephant herds, ancient baobab trees and beautiful landscapes. During your game drive, look for elephants gathering along the Tarangire River, lions resting under giant trees, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, warthogs, ostriches and hundreds of colourful bird species. Tarangire is a great way to finish your family safari before your transfer to Kilimanjaro International Airport.
