What people love about Tanzania Tours
- Big Five Classic Safari in Tanzania **Sustainable Approach to Travel
My husband and I recently went on from a fantastic 5 days tour to Tanzania for our honeymoon. We were very extremely wowed by our hosts World Adventure Tours who organized a very memorable tour to Lake Manyara, Seregeti and Ngorongoro Crater in what I believe are some of the best lodges in Tanzania and organized adventurous game drives in the 3 parks. Peter our safari driver was very good, he drove well and knew the parks very well such that he found wild game with no difficulties. He is a charming individual and kept us captivated with his narrations about the parks, animals, trees, Tanzania culture and general stuff. He was great company and enriched our safari a lot. When we arrived we were booked in the exquisite Springlands Hotel in Moshi for our first night, then Highway Coffee Lodge in Karatu, In Serengeti we stayed for a day at Serengeti Wild Camp and the next 2 days at the Ikoma Wild Camp which were all so amazing. They are set in the bush allowing for maximum experience of the wild and nature. The food was delicious and prepared fresh with options for buffet or ordering for a specific meal. I was very touched by the kind gesture where in all the lodges we got a bottle of wine because we were on a honeymoon. It was sad to let Peter go when we flew back to Arusha from Kogatende airstrip because he had been an excellent guide who taught us a lot about Tanzania. For those thinking of going on a Tanzania Safari book this company and you will not be dissapointed. They have very good links with the lodges and you will get to sleep in nice lodges for a bargain.
- PRIVATE Wildebeest Calving Safari, Tanzania, January to March **Sustainable Approach to Travel
We returned from the safari a couple of days ago and are extremely happy with how everything turned out. The trip was well planned starting in Tarangire, Serengeti and finishing off in glorious Ngorongoro. Sadique our wonderful guide had answers to all questions about the animals, culture and everything about Tanzania. He spared no effort so that we got to see as many animals as possible, and patient to let us enjoy the views and take as many photos as we wanted. His driving skills were impressive, expertly maneuvering the off roader in muddy trails. Accommodations at Ngorongoro Wildcamp, Serengeti Safari Lodge and Serengeti Wildebeest Camp were perfect. They were all great resting spots during the trip. I got a good impression about World Adventure Tours during the planning phase with the timely and professional responses from Moses. This excellence has continued through the actual trip and I am happy to recommend them to all my family and friends.
- 8- Days Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake manyara , Materuni Waterfalls & Coffee Tour- 8 Days.(Accommodation and Transport are Included)
This trip was absolutely wonderful. It was my second time in Tanzania and this round everything was seamless. From the punctual transfers, great 4x4, top of the line accommodations and an amazing driver/guide with us. The parks are a true marvel of nature. We saw many animals than we thought possible. Then came the great wildebeest migration. Totally astounding seeing these many animals moving in unison. Thank you Nuhu for showcasing the best of Tanzania.
Most popular destinations in Tanzania
The Northern Circuit route in Tanzania is one of the most beautiful routes on Kilimanjaro, offering sweeping 360-degree views across the rarely visited northern slopes. A tour here is a must, as is a safari adventure during your time in this beautiful destination.
See all Northern Circuit Tanzania toursWhat makes Kilimanjaro special isn't just the mountain - it's the remarkable team that gets you there. The local African guides bring generations of knowledge and genuine care to each group's journey. Behind every successful climb, there's this incredible network of porters who really make the magic happen. They're out there hauling gear, setting up comfortable camps and somehow pulling off hot meals at altitude, which feels almost impossible given the conditions. There's something really special about how climbers bond with their support crew during these expeditions. Many of our travelers tell us that while reaching Uhuru Peak was incredible, the friendships they built along the way left an equally lasting impression.
See all Mount Kilimanjaro toursThe Serengeti National Park shows you Africa's most incredible wildlife display - watching the great wildebeest migration has left TourRadar customers changed forever. Our travelers come back with tales of massive herds that stretch beyond what you can see, plus excellent chances to spot lions, elephants, leopards, rhinos and also buffalos in their wild home. The local guides really make the difference here - they know exactly where to position the vehicles for perfect viewing and share fascinating details about animal behavior and how the whole ecosystem works together. You get the best of both worlds with game drives and high-end lodges in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro area - picture yourself tracking predators at dawn, then later watching the sun go down over the plains from your private deck. People especially love seeing lions sprawled across the rocky kopjes, watching secretarybirds hunt through the grass, or floating above it all in a sunrise balloon safari that gives you a completely different perspective of the wildlife moving below.
See all Serengeti National Park toursSituated close to Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire National Park is often overlooked. Dotted with elephants, lions and zebras, Tarangire is a hidden gem of Tanzania. Whether you are walking in elephant tracks or sleeping under the stars, a safari in Tarangire cannot be missed.

Travel Tanzania your way
With the world-renowned Serengeti National Park, home to the iconic Big Five, the unique Ngorongoro crater, and clear night skies ideal for stargazing at the Milky Way, Tanzania is a magical place for a safari vacation.
See all Safari toursWhen it comes to climbing Kilimanjaro, you've got solid options depending on your style and timeline. The Machame Route takes 6-7 days and our travelers love how it mixes up the scenery - you'll walk through thick rainforest, cross alpine meadows and finally tackle the rocky summit paths. Looking for actual beds instead of tents? The Marangu Route, nicknamed the 'Coca Cola route', lets you sleep in mountain huts along the classic route up. For a quieter experience with great wildlife viewing down low, the Lemosho Route runs 7-8 days and sees fewer crowds. What really makes these climbs work though is the local climbing teams - our clients keep telling us how they nail the pacing, serve up hot meals at high camps and give real support when the summit push gets tough. We see more successful summits on the longer routes that give proper time to adjust to the altitude.
Tanzania's northern safari circuit packs in the real adventures, especially on our multi-day tours through the main wildlife areas. A typical 7-day route takes you from Lake Manyara where lions hang out in trees, across the massive Serengeti plains and down into Ngorongoro's crater. Our travelers come back with amazing stories - like catching three different wildebeest river crossings in one day or finding lions sprawled out on those granite kopjes. The guides make it special - they'll spot a leopard's tail dangling from a far-off tree or follow fresh cheetah tracks right to a hunt. Some trips mix in cultural visits to Maasai communities or show you how locals make traditional banana beer. The camps and lodges sit in perfect spots too - you'll drift off to hippo grunts and wake up to find giraffes munching leaves just outside.
Pedal through Tanzania's diverse landscapes, from serene plains to striking mountains. Explore the otherwordly Ngorongoro Conservation Area, admire the views of the iconic Mount Kilimanjaro, and spot wildlife like giraffes and flamingos.

Best tour companies for Tanzania tours
Several tour companies run solid Kilimanjaro climbs and Serengeti safaris, each with their own strengths. Our travelers consistently give high marks to G Adventures, particularly noting guides like Gerald Godfrey who really know their routes and terrain. The Lemosho route through World Adventure Tours gets lots of positive feedback - their guide Brighton makes a real difference, and you get to stay at nice spots like Springlands Hotel between trek days. If you're watching your budget, Almighty Kilimanjaro tends to run more affordable trips - their guide Justice leads groups up the Machame route with careful attention to each climber's pace and needs. The summit views are especially good at sunrise when the weather cooperates. We've had mixed feedback about Intrepid's Kilimanjaro programs - while the actual climbs go well, a few of our customers mentioned issues with airport pickups not arriving as scheduled. For Serengeti safaris, OneSeed Expeditions runs excellent private tours - their guide Saleh knows exactly where to spot wildlife, and the Ang'ata bush camps provide comfortable beds after long days exploring the plains. I should mention that guide availability can vary by season, so while we've had great experiences with the specific guides named here, you might work with different but equally qualified leaders depending on when you travel.
Best places to start your Tanzania tour
Most Tanzania trips start from either Arusha or Moshi, with 34 and 33 departures each week, and they're perfect jumping-off points for safaris and Kilimanjaro climbs. Another 27 tours begin at Kilimanjaro International Airport. Our booking patterns show you should lock in your plans about 132 days ahead - that's roughly 4.5 months - to get the dates and places you want. This really matters during peak wildlife seasons when the nicest lodges fill up fast. Our travelers say they're impressed by the accommodation and food quality, even in remote spots; you get comfort while staying right in the middle of the action. For Kilimanjaro, we suggest taking at least 6 days to climb so your body can adjust properly. Many people pair their mountain trek with a few days watching elephants in Tarangire National Park or seeing flamingos paint the sky pink at Lake Manyara in the late afternoon light.
Discover Tanzania tours for every budget
The northern circuit forms the backbone of our budget-friendly Tanzania safaris, running 5-7 days across multiple parks. You'll start at Tarangire National Park, where elephants gather in impressive numbers near the river. The journey continues with game drives through the Serengeti tracking lions, leopards and also cheetahs. Our customers often tell us the Ngorongoro Crater is a highlight - the guides know exactly where to position vehicles for watching black rhinos graze on the crater floor. You'll split nights between comfortable lodges and well-equipped camping sites, with many travelers saying the nighttime wildlife sounds make camping extra special. The price covers park fees, specialized 4x4 transport and three daily meals from experienced safari chefs.
Our premium safaris take things up a notch with stays at Tanzania's finest lodges and camps. Starting in Arusha, you'll move on to intimate tented camps in the Serengeti where private verandas offer perfect sunset views over the plains. We've built in plenty of time for early morning game drives when predators are most active, plus afternoon walks with Maasai guides who know every inch of the land. The mobile camps that follow the Great Migration are a real highlight - our travelers love being right in the middle of the action. Extra touches include sundowner drinks in the bush, private chef-prepared meals and guides who've spent decades learning Tanzania's complex ecosystems.

Top Tanzania travel itineraries to fit your plans
Our week-long safaris combine Tanzania's finest parks with local culture for a proper African experience. You'll explore Tarangire's ancient baobab forests and watch elephants gather by the hundreds along the river during dry months. The Serengeti portion is special - our guides have a knack for spotting leopards draped across acacia branches. Many routes include stops at Maasai communities and the Olduvai Gorge museum, which tells the fascinating story of human origins. Our travelers love the tented camps, particularly in the Serengeti where lion roars echo through the night while you're tucked away comfortably. The drive down into Ngorongoro Crater never disappoints - there's a good chance you'll spot black rhinos among the thousands of animals grazing on the crater floor.
The Lemosho Route to Kilimanjaro summit takes 10 days, giving your body proper time to adjust to the altitude, which really shows in our success rates. You start walking through rainforest at Londorossi Gate, cross the wide-open Shira Plateau and tackle the Barranco Wall - it looks intimidating but our guides have a way of making the scramble feel manageable. Our clients often mention how valuable those extra acclimatization days around Karanga Valley proved to be. Summit night starts at midnight and it's certainly demanding, but our teams have got the pacing down to an art. The sunrise view from Stella Point, just before you reach Uhuru Peak, is what our travelers say makes all the effort worth it.

- Winter 2025 / 2026
Nature puts on quite a show in Tanzania's winter months from December through March - it's prime time to see wildebeest calving in the southern Serengeti. Our 7-8 day safaris take you right where thousands of calves take their first wobbly steps, often just minutes after being born. The action gets intense with predators following the herds closely. We've designed routes combining Lake Manyara's unique wildlife with extended time in Ndutu, where our guides know exactly which spots give you the best views of new calves. Our travelers love staying in mobile camps that put them in the middle of everything - they often tell us how the resident lions and cheetahs become much more active during this season.

The long rains start in spring, but this actually creates ideal conditions for both Kilimanjaro climbs and wildlife viewing. Our 8-day Lemosho Route trek makes good use of the clear morning skies, while afternoon cloud cover gives nice shade during the steeper parts. Safari tours during these months spend extra time in Ngorongoro Crater where animals gather near permanent water and the grass stays green. Our guides are particularly good at finding big cats this time of year - they know which kopjes (rock outcrops) the lions use to stay dry and also where to spot leopards lounging in fever trees along the drainage lines.

- Summer 2026
Summer is all about the northern Serengeti where our 6-7 day safaris put you in perfect spots to watch the dramatic river crossings. You'll spend plenty of time at key points along the Mara River watching massive wildebeest and zebra herds make their risky dash through crocodile-filled waters. Our clients often mention how the guides seem to know exactly when and where crossings will happen, getting them in position just before the action starts. Many routes combine this with time in Tarangire National Park where big elephant herds gather along the river. It's also a popular time for Kilimanjaro climbs, with the Machame Route offering good conditions and high success rates for reaching the summit.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Fall gives you perfect conditions to combine Kilimanjaro climbs with wildlife viewing. Many travelers pick the Marangu Route since the mountain huts provide good shelter during occasional autumn storms. Our clients regularly tell us how much they value our guides' timing - starting at midnight for the summit push gets you to the top right as the sun rises over the crater rim. Safari-goers get the bonus of smaller crowds while still seeing plenty of action as animals cluster around the shrinking water sources. Many fall trips include stops at local villages where you can try traditional crafts and share meals with community members.

What Cultural Experiences Can You Have in Tanzania?
Want to really experience Tanzanian culture? You can get immersed in Maasai life by visiting their traditional bomas which are these amazing homesteads near Ngorongoro or Tarangire. The traditional dances are incredible and you'll learn about their nomadic lifestyle plus maybe try making some beads yourself. There's this great initiative called the Clean Cookstove Project that G Adventures supports where you can see how sustainable tourism actually helps Maasai communities. Over in Mto wa Mbu village near Lake Manyara you can experience Chagga culture try some local banana beer visit farms and browse these wonderful markets full of handmade crafts.
What Are Tanzania's Main Natural Areas and How Do You Get There?
Tanzania's got these incredible national parks scattered across the country. The Serengeti is probably the most famous and you've got to see the Great Migration - you can drive there or catch a light aircraft which is pretty exciting. Then there's Ngorongoro Crater it's this amazing ecosystem where you descend in 4x4s to spot wildlife including black rhinos. Tarangire's brilliant for elephants and Lake Manyara's got these fascinating tree-climbing lions. Most people get around using safari operators with specialized 4x4s they're perfect really with sliding windows and pop-up roofs so you can get the best views of the wildlife.
How Do You Get Around Tanzania?
Getting around Tanzania's pretty straightforward really. In towns you've got dala dalas these local minibuses that zip around on set routes though the schedules can be a bit flexible. For longer trips there are regular buses but when it comes to safaris you'll want to go with tour operators who've got proper 4x4s. The drives can be long but that's part of the adventure! Some people prefer flying especially for safaris it saves time and there's this popular Zanzibar Express that gets you quickly from Arusha to Zanzibar.
