Nine days to see the north properly, with time to slow down between parks: a walking safari in Arusha National Park, the elephants and baobabs of Tarangire, the forest and flamingos of Lake Manyara, a morning in the Ngorongoro Crater, and three full nights on the Serengeti plains. The most complete way to experience northern Tanzania, in your choice of mid-range or luxury lodges.
Your guide meets you at Kilimanjaro International Airport and transfers you to Arusha to rest and prepare for the days ahead.
