What people love about Wildlife Tours in Tanzania
Our experience on this tour was nothing but amazing. We asked to personalise the itinerary to be sure we would have the perfect Safari we dreamt of. Medison, our guide, was very knowledgeable and brought us on Game Drives across 4 different parks, allowing us to see all the wildlife (not just the Big Five). Accommodation was clean, comfortable and very high-level, with luxury-tents in Serengeti and great Lodges in the other locations. Our stay in Zanzibar was relaxed and well taken care of. I highly recommend this operator for a great Safari experience!
10-Day Wildlife Safari and Zanzibar Beach Excursions
- 5 Day Tanzania Wildlife Experience Safari
We did a 6 day Safari with Migration Ventures to Serengeti, Lake Victoria - Rubondo and Saanane. We found our guide waiting for us when we landed in Mwanza. We started in the small island of Saanane off Mwanza in Lake Victoria enjoying the sights of hippos and crocodiles in the water and small game in the park. The following day took us to Rubondo which is another very beautiful place with few visitors so we had the whole place to ourselves. We then flew to central Serengeti and following the wildebeest to Ndutu and had an amazing time. Migration Venture Africa organized an itinerary just the way we wanted making us very happy. They are a great company and we'll organize another tour to the South with them later in the year.

What are the must-see wildlife highlights in Tanzania's national parks?

The Serengeti draws visitors for the Great Migration where more than 2 million wildebeest and zebras move across the plains. Ngorongoro Crater serves as home to roughly 30000 animals including black rhinos. In Tarangire visitors can expect to see large elephant herds among ancient baobab trees. One TourRadar traveler noted: "We spotted lions elephants and even a rare leopard. The landscapes were untouched and diverse offering incredible photo opportunities at locations like the Mwagusi Sand River and Mdonya River."

Wildlife viewing peaks during the dry seasons from June to October and January to February when animals gather around water sources in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. The wildebeest migration reaches Northern Serengeti between July and October while December through March brings calving season to Southern Serengeti. A TourRadar traveler reported: "We saw the migration in Northern Serengeti with lots of lions hyenas and other carnivores that followed the migration."

Standard safari packages cover English-speaking guides game drives in 4x4 vehicles park fees lodging at places like Serengeti Safari Lodge or Ngorongoro Wild Camp and three daily meals with drinking water. Most tours also provide airport transfers and Flying Doctors insurance. As shared by a TourRadar traveler: "Everything was included from excellent game drives to comfortable lodges. Our guide Augustine went above and beyond explaining all about the animals landscapes and people we met on tour."
Can I combine a Tanzania wildlife safari with other experiences?
Tanzania offers easy combinations of wildlife viewing with cultural visits and beach stays. Popular add-ons include stops at Maasai villages near Ngorongoro tours of Zanzibar's spice plantations or beach time at Amaan Bungalow Beach Resort.
