What people love about Northern Circuit Tanzania Tours
- Nairobi to Zanzibar: Serengeti & Sunsets
Amazing sights and locations to experience. Tour logistics- plans for the day, accommodation details, special considerations, etc. could have been better communicated, both in advance and during the tour itself. Time in Zanzibar could be better scheduled, but otherwise it was a great experience. Fellow travelers were also good company.
- Serengeti Trail (8 destinations)
My husband and i really enjoyed the Serengeti Trail. Our tour guide, David, was brilliant. He was extremely knowledgable, very friendly and kept everyone organised. Everyone on the group got on really well and this made the trip even more enjoyable. The camps we stayed in were basic but exactly what we expected. The food was good although we would have liked to have tried some more traditional African dishes. I particularly enjoyed the fact that the tour was participatory and that we all got involved in setting up the camp, cooking and cleaning. this got everyone interacting and helped the group bond. The tour bus we were on for the week, was not the most comfortable ride. it was an old bus and was not in very good condition, with bits coming undone throughout the week. By the time our journey was over, some of the panels were held on by rope!! However, the driver, Alex, was a very good driver and ensured we were all kept safe. overall, our journey with intrepid into the Serengeti and to the Ngorongoro Crater was a totally amazing experience. There were many highlights and no low points. We would definitely travel with intrepid again.
We had a great time in the national park, saw many animals and beautiful nature. Our driver Michael was knowledgeable and could answer all our questions and took us to nice viewing spots.

"Kilimanjaro Wonders Expedition Safari provided an outstanding trekking experience. The 7-day Machame Route was challenging but incredibly rewarding. Our guide was professional, knowledgeable, and supportive, ensuring we acclimatized properly and stayed motivated throughout the trek. The porters were friendly and efficient, carrying our gear and setting up camp with remarkable speed. Meals were delicious and well-prepared, giving us the energy we needed for each day's hike. Summit night was tough, but the breathtaking view from Uhuru Peak made every step worth it. I highly recommend this company for anyone dreaming of conquering Kilimanjaro!
