The Northern Circuit Safari
Tanzania's Northern Circuit is the most popular safari route in East Africa, connecting the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire, and Lake Manyara into a single breathtaking journey through iconic landscapes and unmatched wildlife density.
“Starting from Arusha, the gateway city, the Northern Circuit loops through diverse ecosystems — from the elephant-dotted woodlands of Tarangire to the flamingo-lined shores of Lake Manyara, up to the volcanic rim of Ngorongoro, and into the endless plains of the Serengeti. Most safaris cover the circuit in 5 to 10 days.”
June to October for dry season game viewing, January to March for calving
Varies from semi-arid lowlands to cool highlands at Ngorongoro rim
