Package Overview What this trip is, in a nutshell
This nine-day private safari begins gently at Usa River before exploring Arusha National Park's montane forest and Momella Lakes. Continue through Tarangire's baobab-studded elephant country, cross the Ngorongoro highlands into Central Serengeti and then spend two consecutive nights in Northern Serengeti near Kogatende and the Mara River. The journey returns south for an Ngorongoro Crater safari and a final Arusha night.
A private pop-up-roof 4x4 and professional English-speaking Tanzania guide-driver let the party adapt departure times, photography stops, lunch timing and observation pace within park rules and operating conditions. The route combines characterful lodges with permanent or semi-permanent tented camps, including selected luxury lodge nights and eight total overnights.
The Northern Serengeti version is most relevant when seasonal movements favor the Mara River sector, broadly from June through October and often strongest around August through October. Outside that period, the Serengeti nights can be redesigned toward Central, Western or Southern Serengeti according to rainfall, current wildlife concentrations, road access and traveler priorities.
The displayed USD 3,520 rate is the supplied high or northern-migration-season estimate per person for two travelers sharing. The supplied two-traveler planning estimates are USD 3,280 for a green or season-adjusted route and USD 3,760 in peak-demand season. High-season estimates are USD 3,150 pp for three travelers, USD 2,950 pp for four, USD 2,835 pp for five and USD 2,755 pp for six, subject to exact dates, rooms, fees and availability.
Solo travel is available by tailored quotation. The supplied USD 5,350 high-season solo estimate cannot be represented accurately by the website's automatic sole-traveler formula, so automatic solo pricing remains hidden. Optional bush flights can reduce the longest Northern Serengeti road sector but are excluded unless specifically quoted.
Wildlife possibilities include elephant, giraffe, buffalo, zebra, wildebeest, hippo, lion, cheetah, leopard, spotted hyena, crocodile and black rhino. All sightings, migration concentrations and Mara River crossings are natural and cannot be guaranteed. A strong migration safari is judged by overall wildlife, landscapes, guiding and seasonal fit rather than a promised crossing event.
