Tanzania Safaris can either take you exclusively to the northern game parks (Serengeti included) or you can explore other destinations on your trip too.
Starting from camping tours over a few days, the Budget Camping Safaris option allows you to explore several of the game parks on the Northern Tanzanian Safari Circuit on its own, or in combination with Amboseli in Kenya. The Budget Camping Safaris to the Northern Tanzanian Safari Circuit offer shorter, more affordable safari choices. These Tanzanian Safaris are cheaper than the lodge and accommodated trips, giving travelers the chance to immerse themselves in nature and camp out under the stars. The Budget Camping Safaris require limited participation at camp and travel in smaller groups than the overland Africa tours.
Explore selected Tanzania wildlife parks on the Northern Safari Circuit, such as the Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire National Park, or all of them (Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti and Lake Manyara National Parks). Options include Budget Lodge Safaris to the Northern Tanzanian Safari Circuit plus Masai Mara in Kenya, or several top Kenyan Parks, including Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, and Masai Mara. The Northern Tanzanian Safari Circuit can also be combined with Zanzibar Islands to make a winning wildlife and beach combo! The length of these lodge tours ranges from around one to two weeks. Stay in 2 to 3-star establishments, from hotels and guesthouses to bungalows and safari lodges. Excellent value-for-money safaris that provide a little style and comfort while remaining affordable.
One to two-week-long budget safaris taking you to the Northern Tanzania Safari Circuit alone, or with Kenya's Masai Mara and/or Amboseli Parks added to the mix. The Exclusive Budget Safaris travel in smaller tour groups and make use of luxury camping accommodation in combination with 2 to 3-star quality lodge or guest house accommodation. Sit back and enjoy exploring northern Tanzania, without having to participate at camp.
Longer budget safaris by overland truck, usually taking in several top African safari destinations (game parks and countries) in one go! These are a step up from the Camping Overland Tours, but also entail traveling in quite big and social groups. The shortest of these Accommodated Tours (plus-minus a week-long) combine the Northern Safari Circuit with Zanzibar Islands - excellent Tanzanian wildlife and beaches mix. The Accommodated Overland Tours require a bit of help from you, usually with meal preparation, and are ideal for budget travelers looking for a touch of comfort on the road.
As with the epic Accommodated Overland Tours these are generally more comprehensive budget trips through several African countries to top safari destinations in each. There are however some shorter ones that focus on the Northern Tanzania Safari Circuit game parks or combine them with the southern Kenyan game park, Masai Mara. We offer a good range of these social safaris, traveling in quite large groups by safari truck. There's often some participation required at camp on these trips, but camping under starry African skies more than makes up for the little bit of effort. Overland Camping Tours provide a fun and very affordable way of visiting the Northern Tanzania Safari Circuit.
