Arusha
Arusha is the practical starting point for most Northern Tanzania safaris. The city sits between Kilimanjaro International Airport and the safari circuit, making it the natural place for arrival nights, private safari briefings, vehicle preparation and a relaxed first or final evening before flying home.
Central Serengeti
Central Serengeti, particularly the Seronera region, is the year-round wildlife heart of the park. River valleys, kopjes and open plains support resident prey and predators through all seasons, making the area one of the most dependable components of a Northern Tanzania safari.
Northern Serengeti & Mara River
Northern Serengeti is a broad, less densely developed landscape of rolling hills, woodland, grassland and river systems near the Kenya border. From roughly July through October it becomes a major focus for Great Migration safaris because herds may move through the Kogatende and Mara River region.

Private Tanzania Safaris
Private safaris are the foundation of flexible Northern Tanzania travel, giving your group control over game-drive timing, stops, photography and daily pace.
Fly-In Safaris
Scheduled light-aircraft flights are useful when the itinerary needs to connect Arusha with the Serengeti quickly or combine distant Serengeti regions without long road transfers.
Northern Tanzania Safaris
Northern Tanzania brings Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro and the Serengeti into one connected safari circuit, with routes ranging from compact four-day trips to long high-end itineraries.
