What people love about Tarangire National Park Tours
- 7 Days PRIVATE Best of Tanzania Safari ** Departing Everyday ** Sustainable approach to travel, Travelife Certified
World Adventure Tours gave us the experience of a lifetime. We used the company to go on safari to Tanzania and we were not disappointed. After a lot of back and forth with Moses of reservations we chose the 12 day private safari package to Lake Manyara, the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Moses helped us organize the perfect itinerary with a lot of flexibility that could accommodate changes. Our guide Obed was incredible. He picked us up at the airport on time and drove us to Highview Coffee Lodge in Karatu. Our game tour started at Lake Manyara then Serengeti and we visited Ngorongoro last. In the 12 days we saw lions, baboons, elephants, zebras, hippos, crown birds and so many others. Actually we saw all the big 5 because we encoutered rhinos in Ngorongoro on our last the last day He has a lot of experience with the Serengeti and its wildlife. He showed us many animals and gave us a lot of facts on them. He was also very skilled at spotting the animals and could see them from a long distance. The highlight of the trip was seeing the big five and the wildebeest migration at three different crossings. The staff at the camps/lodges was exceptional. They treated us like royalty, attending to our every need. They went to a lot of trouble ensuring we were comfortable. The tents are luxurious and have all the amenities. There was a working toilet, a hot shower, a sink, and a very comfortable bed. The tents also have balconies from where one can see wild animals roaming around. The views from the balcony were wondrous. We spent most of our evenings there, watching the sun go down. We couldn’t have been happier. Thanks to World Adventure Tours, Moses, and Obed for making our trip amazing.
- Cheetah Classic Adventure Safari in Tanzania **Sustainable Approach to Travel
Tanzania is an amazing place to vacation. We visited three magnificent parks ( Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Serengeti) and they were all special. I bet going on tour with Sadique made it all better than we expected, for he was the best. He really knows his stuff and very passionate about conservation. We stayed at nice places, especially Ngorongoro Wildcamp which was excellent. I highly recommend this package.
- 3 Days 2 Nights Safari Tarangire,Lake Manyara & Ngorongoro Crater
We recently went on a fantastic safari with Migration Venture Africa to the Northern Parks where we had a fantastic experience. We chose this company because of the positive reviews they have both on safaribookings and TripAdvisor. We arrived in Tanzania from Nairobi where we had been visiting our friends and Thomas was waiting for us at the border in Namanga and we immediately got to like him. He drove us to Lake Burunge Tented Camp where we spent our first lovely night. The following day we went to Tarangire National Park and this park is very beautiful with a lot of elephants. The next park we visited was Lake Manyara and it was also special. We saw hippos, baboons, tree climbing lions and some water birds. We then went to Serengeti near the Ndutu area where we found the herds of wildebeest with their young calves, zebras and cheetahs. This was a very special trip and Migration Ventures made it perfect.
