Embark on an unforgettable 10 Day Tanzania Safari that brings together spectacular wildlife, ancient cultures, endless savannahs and some of the most iconic landscapes in East Africa. Carefully designed by Tansania Toll Safaris, based in Arusha, Tanzania, this journey takes you from the elephant filled wilderness of Tarangire to the cultural communities of Mto wa Mbu and Lake Eyasi, before leading you deep into the legendary plains of the Serengeti and finally to the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater.
Your adventure begins at Kilimanjaro International Airport, the main gateway to Tanzania’s famous Northern Safari Circuit. After a warm Tanzanian welcome, you settle into Arusha before beginning your journey into the wild.
Your first major safari destination is Tarangire National Park, covering approximately 2,850 square kilometres. Famous for its enormous baobab trees, impressive elephant populations and the life giving Tarangire River, the park provides a beautiful introduction to Tanzania’s wildlife. Lions, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, buffaloes and countless birds complete a landscape that feels unmistakably African.
From Tarangire, the journey takes a cultural turn at Mto wa Mbu, a colourful town resting beneath the Great Rift Valley escarpment. Here, you step beyond the safari vehicle to discover farms, local markets, traditional food, crafts and everyday community life. This experience allows you to understand that Tanzania’s greatest treasures are not found only in its national parks but also in the warmth, traditions and stories of its people.
The cultural discovery continues at Lake Eyasi, where you have an opportunity to meet the Hadzabe, one of Tanzania’s most fascinating indigenous communities. Their traditional hunting and gathering practices have been closely connected to the surrounding environment for generations. Depending on the arranged program, you may also meet members of the Datoga community and learn about their pastoral traditions and metalworking skills.
From Lake Eyasi, your safari turns toward one of the greatest wildlife destinations on Earth, Serengeti National Park. Covering approximately 14,763 square kilometres, the Serengeti protects an immense ecosystem of open grasslands, rocky kopjes, river valleys and woodland.
You first explore Central Serengeti, particularly the wildlife rich Seronera region, before travelling north toward the remote landscapes of Northern Serengeti. Several days inside the Serengeti give you valuable time to search for lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, hyenas and countless grazing animals.
During the appropriate migration season, Northern Serengeti becomes one of the most exciting places to follow the Great Wildebeest Migration. Huge herds may gather across the northern plains and around the Mara River as they continue their ancient seasonal journey. Because the migration is a completely natural phenomenon, exact herd locations and river crossings can never be guaranteed, making every encounter uniquely rewarding.
Your adventure eventually returns through Central Serengeti before reaching the spectacular Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Here, the landscape rises into volcanic highlands surrounding the famous Ngorongoro Crater, one of Africa’s most extraordinary natural wildlife sanctuaries.
Descending onto the crater floor gives you one final opportunity to search for Tanzania’s remarkable wildlife before returning to Arusha and Kilimanjaro International Airport.
Created for travellers searching for a Tanzania wildlife safari, Serengeti Great Migration safari, Northern Serengeti safari, Tarangire safari, Lake Eyasi cultural tour, Hadzabe cultural experience and Ngorongoro Crater safari, this ten day journey combines wildlife and culture into one unforgettable Tanzanian adventure.
With Tansania Toll Safaris, every road leads to another story, every sunrise opens another chapter, and every day brings you closer to the wild soul of Tanzania.
