Highlights of Tanzania safari: This package gives you a quick glimpse of what we are having in our national parks for Tanzania safari trips. Moreover, you will be visiting Tarangire national park which has large population numbers of elephants and baobab trees in Tanzania. Thereafter you are going to visit the famous endless plain of Serengeti national park which supports the great wildebeest migration. Apart from wildebeest migration, it also has a big number of big cats’ families. To be specific, lions, leopards, cheetah are easily seen on Serengeti safari adventures. Furthermore, in your highlights of the Tanzania safari, you will be visiting the Ngorongoro crater (the only crater in the world with the big five animals).  In brief, on your highlights of the Tanzania safari, you will be visiting two national parks, that is Serengeti – Tarangire and the Ngorongoro conservation area.

Highlights of Tanzania safari attraction: The Tarangire national park is located south of Lake Manyara national park. On your visit to Tarangire national park expect to see huge herds of elephants, buffalos, Thompson gazelles, Leopard, Buffalos, etc. For instance, on some occasions, you can come across elephants, buffalos, elephants, zebras, impalas and other herbivore animals chilling together. They enjoy drinking water at the same water pool. Moreover, sometimes on your Tarangire safari, you can find them relaxing and drinking water at the Tarangire River area. Also, predators take advantage of hunting the animals when they come to the pool or river from drinking. Apart from Serengeti park and Ngorongoro crater, Tarangire national park is also more popular, especially for its beautiful landscapes – grass plains, immense baobabs trees, vast herds of elephants, and a large number of wild animals found in this park.

As I have said above, highlights of Tanzania’s safari Itinerary are also including a visit to the Serengeti national park. Serengeti is the highlight of your Tanzania safari; it has a lot to offer. Besides Serengeti migration, Serengeti animals can be seen are zebras, elephants, kudu, buffalos, impalas, big cats like – lions, leopards, etc. The list is long, I have just mentioned a few of them.

Furthermore, highlights of the Tanzania safari will take you to the endless plain of Serengeti national park. Wildebeests’ migration is the best thing you can experience on your Africa Serengeti safari. For example, starting from May wildebeest Migrations spend time in the western corridor before they move to the north in July. They spend time in the northern Serengeti from August to early September. Nevertheless, in Mid-September they cross the Mara River and enter the Masai mara game reserve in Kenya. Mid to late October they start their move down to Lobo on the way to southern Serengeti whereby they spend time in Ndutu plain from late December – to March. Calving season starts in February, new babies are born and they are all spread over the Naabi hills and Ndutu.

Apart from Tarangire and Serengeti, a visit to the Ngorongoro crater is never missing on your highlights of Tanzania safari. It is one of the craters in the world which hosts over twenty-five thousand wildlife including the big five. In one day on a game drive in the Ngorongoro crater, you can spot the big five animals. Moreover, the Ngorongoro crater has supports large animals like Buffalos, elephants, Eland, Zebras, Hippo, Rhinos, and many more.

Most northern Tanzania wildlife safaris include a day or two to visit the Ngorongoro crater floor and the area around. Moreover, the Ngorongoro crater floor is the largest famous crater in the Ngorongoro conservation area. This is because it supports a large number of wild animals. Besides Ngorongoro crater floor game drives, you can enjoy an outdoor hiking adventure to Embakaai crater and Olmoti crater. On this hiking, you also get the privilege to enjoy wild animals very close. Moreover, Embakaai and Olmoti support a small number of African wildlife like Zebras, elephants, Thompson, buffalos, Impalas, wildebeest, etc. Also, the Embakaai crater has large numbers of flamingos and other bird species. Besides wildlife, visit Maasai villages in the area and get a chance to enjoy their dancing, cooking, Shanga design, etc. You also get some time to learn about their living and culture.
