This is a selection of our most popular itineraries for safaris and treks in the Northern Circuit of Tanzania. For overnights while on safari, you have the choice of basic camping, permanent tented campsites and luxury lodges, most of which are situated in the parks with extraordinary views of the wildlife. While trekking, you have the choice between basic huts or campsites, however, this depends which route you wish to trek.
Click our trekking link above for more information about our mountain itineraries.

We take pride in being environmentally friendly, always making sure to carefully follow the park regulations,  so our presence in the parks and campsites will not negatively affect the surroundings.

We offer packages combining Kilimanjaro treks, safaris and Zanzibar beach holidays. Click here for detailed itineraries.

For special requests, contact us, so that we can "tailor make" an itinerary to suit your  specific needs. We accommodate families with small children, as well as people with disabilities.

PARK REGULATIONS:
These rules and regulations are established to protect the wildlife and the surroundings. Please follow them carefully while on safari.

  • Driving in the parks is permitted between 6am and 7pm only.
  • Camping is permitted only at designated sites.
  • In the crater, picnicking is only allowed at designated sites.
  • Wild animals always have the right of way. Do not exceed the speed limit of 50 kph in the area, 25kph in the crater.
  • Keep to the authorized tracks. Destroyed vegetation is slow to regenerate and haphazard vehicle tracks expose young creatures to unnecessary danger.
  • Do not disturb or harass the wildlife in any way. Radios and cassette players are forbidden. Please do not imitate animal sounds, clap, pound on vehicles or hoot. Do not throw objects to attract animals attention.
  • Do not leave litter in the area. Keep your waste in the vehicle until it can be properly disposed later at your lodge or camp. Litter can choke or poison animals and birds.
  • All visitors must remain in their vehicle within 200 meters of any game animal. Leaving the vehicle in the parks is forbidden except in designated places.
  • Discourage your driver from approaching the animals too close. (25 meters) Lions, cheetahs and leopards are especially nervous, a vehicle can hinder their hunting or make them leave a hard-earned meal.
  • Do not pick, cut or destroy any vegetation or remove any object of biological interest, including eggs, bones and trophies.
  • Do not light or cause fire to be lit. If camping, be sure to extinguish your fire carefully.
  • Domestic pets are forbidden in the parks.
  • Do not encourage your driver, either by subtle pressure or promises of financial reward, to approach animals closer than 25 meters. Your driver may be banned from the area and/or lose his job.
  • Do not smoke while on game drive and always dispose cigarettes carefully while at camp. Burning cigarettes can start a wildfire that would cause damage to vegetation and suffering to wildlife and people.
  • Never feed animals at your hotel or in the wild. It will upset their diet and lead to unnecessary dependence on people.
