Tanzania holds the southern half of the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem and the extraordinary Ngorongoro Crater, a collapsed volcano whose floor shelters around 25,000 large animals. This eight-day safari follows the classic northern circuit from Arusha, building from the baobab country of Tarangire to the open plains where the Great Migration calves and runs.
You travel in a pop-top 4×4 with a specialist guide, spend two nights inside the Serengeti to make the most of dawn and dusk, and descend into the crater for a full morning game drive. Nights are in lodges and permanent tented camps positioned for wildlife and views.
