Safaris in Northern Tanzania

Northern Tanzania Safaris


Tanzania Safaris Map  Northern Tanzania contains the best known parks in Tanzania and is the home of the traditional overland safari with the principal national parks conveniently close together. Northern Tanzania provides a fabulous mixture of wildlife, spectacular volcanic scenery and fascinating tribal culture attracting visitors from around the world. Although the North  receives far more visitors than the less well known Southern Parks the area is still sufficiently large that it seldom feels crowded.

Tanzania's Northern Safari Circuit includes Tarangire and Lake Manyara National Parks, The Ngorongoro Crater and its surrounding Conservation area and the world famous Serengeti National Reserve. This area also contains Africa's highest mountain, Mount Kilimanjaro and a number of other smaller parks. The area is also home to the Maasai people with their fascinating culture.

The well developed tourist infrastructure and close proximity of many of the game reserves makes this a perfect area to explore on a leisurely, privately guided 4x4 safari which can be great fun for family and groups of friends. Group Safaris and Flying safaris are also possible.
