A focused version of the northern circuit that skips Tarangire and Manyara and puts the time into the Serengeti and Ngorongoro instead. It works well as a stand-alone safari or as the safari half of a trip that continues to Zanzibar or a Kilimanjaro climb.
Run privately with your own driver-guide and 4x4. We can also arrange this as a fly-in safari, replacing the long drives with short light-aircraft hops to gain more game-viewing time.
Drive or fly to the central Serengeti. Afternoon game drive in the Seronera area. Overnight in the Serengeti.
Full-day game viewing, tracking the migration or the resident big cats depending on the season. Overnight in the Serengeti.
Morning game drive, then drive to the Ngorongoro Crater rim via Olduvai Gorge. Overnight on the rim.
Dawn descent for a half-day game drive on the crater floor. Afternoon drive to Karatu. Overnight near the highlands.
Drive back to Arusha for onward travel.
