A collapsed volcano holding its own complete ecosystem — and one of the few places in Tanzania where you have a real chance of black rhino.

Lake Manyara National Park
A narrow strip of groundwater forest, escarpment and soda lake — small, green, and unlike anything else nearby.

Tarangire National Park
Baobabs, dry-season elephant herds in the hundreds, and a fraction of the Serengeti’s traffic.

Arusha
The safari capital of Tanzania, and where almost every northern circuit safari begins and ends.

Mount Kilimanjaro
Africa’s highest point at 5,895 metres, and a walk-up climb that still defeats a good number of the people who attempt it.

Lake Natron
A caustic soda lake beneath an active volcano, and the only regular breeding site in East Africa for lesser flamingo.

The Great Migration
The herds follow the rain, so their position changes through the year. Calving takes place on the plains around Ndutu in February, the herds reach the Grumeti River in June, and the Mara River crossings usually run from July to September.

Notes from the field
Seasons, costs, parks and the practical questions people ask before they book.
Why we send people to Ndutu in February
The best three weeks of the Tanzanian year happen outside the peak season, and hardly anybody books them.
What a safari day actually looks like
Nobody describes the shape of an ordinary day, so people arrive with the wrong expectations. Here it is, hour by hour.
Where the money actually goes on a Tanzanian safari
Park fees, vehicles, guides and camps — and what a very cheap quote leaves out.
Common questions
Something else on your mind? Ask us on WhatsApp
For July to September, nine to twelve months if you want the better camps. For the green season, three to four months is usually enough. We can occasionally work at much shorter notice.
No. Everything we do is private — your own vehicle, your own guide, your own pace. If you want to share costs with friends or family we will build the group for you.
Yes, and camps do this well — but tell us in advance. A camp two hours from the nearest shop cannot improvise on the day.
US dollars, which is the operating currency of the Tanzanian safari industry. We can show an indicative figure in another currency, but the contract price is in dollars.
For travellers, yes, with ordinary precautions in towns. In the camps and parks, crime is essentially not a concern. See our health and safety guide, and check your own government's current travel advice.
