your journey

Overview

Our honeymoon safari is built for two: a private vehicle and guide, a flexible day plan, and nights in lodges chosen for their setting. It follows the classic route of northern Tanzania, with enough time in each place to slow down.

You begin at Lake Manyara under the Rift Valley escarpment, then cross the Ngorongoro highlands to the central Serengeti around the Seronera River for two nights at a lodge inside the park. On the way back you stop at Olduvai Gorge, check in on the Ngorongoro Crater rim and take a two-hour walk through acacia forest along the rim with an armed ranger. Next morning you spend six hours on the crater floor, and the last day is a full game drive in Tarangire.

Three nights are at Serena lodges in the Serengeti and on the crater rim, and two at Farm of Dreams Lodge near Karatu.

Who it suits

Honeymooners and couples celebrating an anniversary or special occasion who want a private safari with comfortable lodges, a sunrise game drive and a walk on the crater rim.

Common questions

You can go on safari here all year. The dry season from June to October is the easiest time for game viewing, because animals gather near rivers and the grass is short, but it is also the busiest. From November to May the parks are green, quieter and excellent for birds, with short rains around November and the long rains in April and May. Where the wildebeest migration is depends on the month, so tell us your dates and we will plan the route around them.

Our safaris use 4x4 safari vehicles with a pop-up roof, so you can stand up for game viewing and photography. On a private safari the vehicle and driver-guide are yours alone for the whole trip.

Each tour page lists exactly what is included and excluded. On our northern circuit safaris, such as the 7-day Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire trip, national park and Ngorongoro Conservation Area entrance fees are included. If you are not sure, ask your specialist before you book.

Yes. Every itinerary on this site is a starting point. We can add or remove days, swap parks, or change the accommodation to suit your budget, and your specialist will send you a revised plan and quote.

Bring light, neutral-coloured clothes, a warm layer for early mornings and for the Ngorongoro Crater rim, which is cold at night, comfortable shoes, a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, sunscreen and insect repellent. Binoculars and a camera with spare batteries and memory cards make a big difference. Soft bags pack into safari vehicles more easily than hard suitcases.

Most visitors need a visa. Apply online in good time through the official Tanzania Immigration website at eservices.immigration.go.tz, and do not use unofficial agents. Your passport should be valid for at least six months after arrival. Requirements differ by nationality, so check the official site for your country.
