11 Days Special Safari in Tanzania and Hadzabe

Short Overview

This 11-day Tanzania Safari with Hadzabe Bushmen is meant to provide you with more time in the Serengeti National Park, notably the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and hence the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania. This Africa safari and travel schedule was created for those who have more time available for a lengthier safari or excursions. It is particularly intended to provide you with a comprehensive Tanzanian northern circuit safari experience while striving to keep your non-game-viewing time period to a minimal.

This memorable 11-day safari will take you to Lake Manyara National Park, one of Tanzania’s most striking wildlife locations, consisting of a small but massive soda lake at the foot of the Great Rift Valley’s western escarpment. The park’s size makes it ideal for a one-day game drive, and it is particularly well-known for its tree-climbing lions. This safari will also take you to the Serengeti National Park, a 14500-square-kilometer wilderness where each day provides a new scenery and a new adventure. It will also take you to Tanzania’s Ngorongoro Crater and hence the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, which has one of the finest concentrations of wildlife and maybe the densest population of predators and carnivores in Africa. Inside a self-contained environment packed with animals, you’ll experience a spectacular display of Tanzania wildlife. Finally, your safari will take you to Tarangire National Park, which has one of the highest concentrations of wildlife in Tanzania, second only to the Ngorongoro Crater, but is less crowded and pristine, with a wild and untamed beauty.
