Northern Circuit · Private
A Taste of Tanzania

We share the Tanzania we've explored, lived, and come to know deeply.
Tanzania's Most Iconic Safari Region
The Northern Circuit covers the chain of parks stretching from Arusha west to the Serengeti - Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti itself. It is one of the most wildlife-dense regions on the African continent, accessible year-round, and endlessly variable depending on when you go and what you're after.
Every itinerary on this page starts as a template and becomes yours. Duration, camps, pace, activities, budget - all adjustable. The tours below are starting points, not fixed packages. Tell us what matters to you and we build from there.

Questions? Answers.
Everything you need to know about safari planning
Are these fixed departures or private trips?
All private. Every itinerary on this page is booked exclusively for your group. No shared vehicles, no joining other travelers. Your guide, your Land Cruiser, your schedule.
Can I combine two itineraries?
Yes. Many travelers combine elements from multiple itineraries - for example adding a walking safari component to the Great Migration Tracker, or extending the Family Safari into the South. Tell us what appeals and we'll design around it.
How customizable are the itineraries?
Entirely. Duration, camps, activities, pace, dietary requirements, budget tier - all adjustable. The itineraries above are starting points. Most travelers make two to three rounds of changes before finalizing.
What is included in the price?
Private 4x4 Land Cruiser, certified WildReality guide, all accommodation, park entry fees, all meals on safari, airport transfers, and emergency support. Flights, visas, travel insurance, and gratuities are not included.
Which season is best?
Depends what you're after. January to March for the Southern Serengeti calving season. June to October for the dry season and potential river crossings. Both are extraordinary - they're just different experiences. Ask us and we'll tell you which fits your dates best.
