Tanzania Safaris


When designing a Tanzanian Safari, there are two main decisions one has to make: The first one is whether you want a private safari or a shared/group safari. A shared safari is a great way to meet new people and reduce costs but (unless you are traveling alone) we usually recommend a private safari because the price difference is not very significant (sometimes none at all) and you'd be able to benefit from full itinerary customization, travel at your own rhythm and pace and have more free space in the car.
The second decision is whether you want to do a camping safari or a lodge safari. This decision will depend on both your budget and comfort requisites. We believe a camping safari, besides being cheaper, is more authentic and can be great fun. On the other hand, a lodging safari can provide you with a different level of comfort and luxury. You can take a look at some of the campsites and lodges that we use in our accomodation page .

If you are interested in a private Tanzania safari, your safari can be completely personalized to suit all your needs and wishes. A private safari can have 1 day or 1 month, can be spent in campsites, lodges or a mixture of both, can include parks from both the northern and sourthern circuit, etc. If you wish to join a group safari, at the bottom of this page you will find a set of standard itineraries (that of course can be changed if all the members of the group agree). You can see the details of these itineraries by clicking on them.

For every detail and doubt about these itineraries or for building a custom private one, please contact us through our contact page.
To know the prices of a specific itinerary (standard or customized) please contact us too. We make a strong effort to offer the best possible prices, which depend upon many factors like the time of the year, the number of tourists, the constantly changing prices of gas and park fees, etc. If you send us an e-mail, we will get back to you with the best possible price we were able to obtain, possibly offering you good discounts over the listed prices.



What we can guarantee you is that we have the best price/quality ratio of the market. We prefer to make people wishes come true and create a great image rather than more profit. We prefer to give you high-end nikon binoculars that will greatly enhance your safari rather than cheap ones or none. We prefer to use more experienced guides and better/modern 4x4 cars than very old ones. And we usually do private safaris (for 2/3 people, with total decision freedom) at lower rates than many companies do shared Tanzania safaris (5/6 people who don't know each other). With us, private safaris in Tanzania can still be budget safaris. And, of course, we can also provide the most luxurious safaris, with balloon rides, luxurious lodges for every night, etc. But you will know that the value you pay will be fair and that 5% of our profit will go out to help children in local schools.

After all, this Tanzania Safari will be, for you, the journey of a lifetime and it's up to you to decide if you want (and have the budget) to do a luxurious premium safari or a budget safari that is cheap but not less interesting (on the contrary) safari and if you want to have the experience alone and with total freedom or if you want to meet new people along the way.

DAY 1: LAKE MANYARA NATIONAL PARK
Depart after breakfast and drive across the Great Rift Valley to Lake Manyara National Park for a full day game drive. Although only 205 sq. miles in size this enchanting park is noted for its beauty and incredibly lush acacia forest of giant fig and mahogany trees, which are home to troops of baboons and blue monkeys. The park is also home to a large numbers of buffalos, giraffes, elephants, impalas and a Hippo lake, where large numbers of hippos usually gather. Well known for its birds (over 400 different species), Lake Manyara is one of the few places where you'll be able to see the Ground Hornbill and the Crested Eagle. This park has become famous for the the climbing lions and the flamingos in the lake shore. The landscapes of these park are absolutely stunning, very different from the Serengeti for example. The game drives are done along the shore of the lake, providing incredible views of giraffes and buffalos in the foreground with the lake, flamingos and flat plains in the horizon. Great photo opportunities! In the afternoon, return to Heaven Nature for dinner.

Day 2: NGORONGORO CRATER
After an early breakfast w will drive a little to the 8th natural wonder of the world - the Ngorongoro Crater. With walls 2,000 ft high and a crater floor that spreads for 102 sq. miles, the crater is a virtual Noah's Ark, inhabited by almost every species of wildlife indigenous to East Africa including the rare black rhino. In fact, the crater has the greatest concentration of wild life in the planet. It contains a river, several swamps, a soda lake that, from the top, looks like steam, full of flamingoes, a forest and open plains. The large bull elephants that reside here have extremely large tusk, due to the rich mineral content of the volcanic soil and its grasses. They are the most incredible elephants you'll ever see in your life. Descend down to the crater floor for a day of wildlife viewing in one of the most incredible places on Earth. After a stop for a picnic lunch near the hippo lake and more wildlife viewing in the afternoon, drive up the steep road out of the crater, arriving in the late afternoon.
