Choose a Northern Circuit tour and you’ll be focused on the Serengeti – one of the biggest and most popular Tanzania parks. Famous for its stunning open plains populated by rare and numerous wildlife, it also gives the potential to see the great wildebeest migration, depending on when you travel.
A Northern Circuit safari is usually conducted in a private 4wd vehicle with your own private guide, and should include a visit to the Ngorongoro Crater, which has a high density of game living freely within the crater basin. Time permitting, you should also try to visit Tarangire, particularly in the dry season, or the stunning Lake Manyara National Park to try and spot the spectacular flamingo or tree climbing lion.
Perched at an altitude of 2600m between the rugged peaks of the Kipengere, Poroto and Livingstone Mountains and referred to by locals as “The Garden of God”, Kitulo National Park is renowned as one of the great floral spectacles of the world and is the first National Park in tropical Africa to be established to protect its flora.
Best time to visit for budding botanists is during the rainy season, December to April whilst hiking is more comfortable from September to November.
Conditions are cold and foggy from June to August. Kitulo is truly a bird-watchers and botanist’s paradise with spectacular scenery.
