6 Day Northern Tanzania Safari

A more relaxed version of the northern circuit, adding Lake Manyara and two full days in the Serengeti.

6 Day Northern Tanzania Safari

Tour Overview

This itinerary covers the same core parks as our 4 day trip but at a pace that leaves room to actually settle into each one. We add Lake Manyara National Park at the start - known for its groundwater forest and tree-climbing lions - and split the Serengeti portion across two full days so you can cover more ground and follow the migration if it's in the area.

Safari Highlights

  • Lake Manyara's groundwater forest and tree-climbing lions

  • Two full days of Serengeti game drives

  • Tarangire's elephant herds and baobabs

  • Ngorongoro Crater floor game drive
