Discover More of Northern Tanzania

The 4 Days / 3 Nights Northern Tanzania Highlights safari by Smiling African Travel is designed for travellers who want more time to discover Tanzania's wildlife and scenery on a private journey.

Northern Tanzania offers varied landscapes, from open savannah and woodland to scenic highlands. Depending on the confirmed route, your safari may include destinations such as Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara, the Ngorongoro area or the Serengeti.

Four days allow for a richer experience than a very short escape, but the best route depends on your travel dates, arrival and departure times, and the amount of time you wish to spend in each destination. Your final itinerary will be tailored and confirmed before booking.
