Your Tanzania safari at a glance
This route pairs the full budget northern circuit with a day you won't find on most safari itineraries: a Chagga coffee farm and waterfall hike on Kilimanjaro's southern slopes. Two nights in the Serengeti give real time to find the migration or resident predators, before Ngorongoro Crater and a change of pace at Materuni.
