Which Tanzania Safari parks are best to visit?

Tanzania’s most popular parks are undoubtedly in the Northern safari circuit. However, seasoned visitors or those looking for something different should consider venturing to the southern and western parts of the country. There, more exotic and less frequented experiences await.

Northern Parks

The Northern safari circuit is ideal for those who visit Tanzania for the first time or who haven’t yet experienced all of its northern parks.

Serengeti National Park, is famed for its vast landscapes and rich wildlife. Central Serengeti is an amazing wildlife hotspot all year round. In July-August, the Northern Serengeti river crossings become the stage for the Great Migration’s most dramatic moments, a must-see spectacle. The endless plains of Southern Serengeti come alive in January-February when thousands of wildebeests give birth. Meanwhile, the Western Serengeti offers a contrasting landscape of dense bush and forests, perfect for wildlife photography.

The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is another UNESCO World Heritage site alongside Serengeti National Park. The famous crater formed by a colossal volcanic eruption is a highlight of Tanzania’s Northern Circuit safaris. The Ngorongoro Crater today resembles a scene from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s ‘The Lost World.’ It boasts the world’s highest animal density and is is a must-visit for an unforgettable safari experience.

Lake Manyara National Park is famous for the stunning sight of thousands of pink flamingos flocking along its shores each year. Lake Manyara National Park boasts a rich variety of animals. The lake itself adds a beautiful, serene backdrop, setting it apart from other parks.

Tarangire National Park is a must-see for anyone on a Tanzanian safari. It’s a place where you can find towering baobabs, big prides of lions and herds of elephants roaming around, along with giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, hippos, and antelopes. Rare scenes of tree-climbing lions can also be spotted in Tarangire National Park.

Arusha National Park is another popular kick-off point for Tanzanian safaris. It’s perfect for those with limited time since Arusha NP can offer a great one-day safari experience. This wildlife park is unique as it allows walking safaris, letting travelers who visit Tanzania get up close to wildlife.

Mkomazi National Park, located in northeastern Tanzania, is known for its dry savannah landscape and impressive wildlife conservation efforts. It’s home to endangered species like the black rhino and African wild dogs, offering stunning views of the Pare and Usambara mountains, with Mount Kilimanjaro visible in the distance. The park also hosts a variety of wildlife, including elephants, giraffes, and cheetahs, making it an excellent destination for game viewing and birdwatching.

Lake Natron is a salt and soda lake located in northern Tanzania, near the Kenyan border. Known for its striking reddish color caused by salt-loving microorganisms, the lake is one of the most alkaline in the world. It’s a vital breeding ground for lesser flamingos, which nest on its shores. The lake’s harsh environment, with temperatures reaching up to 60°C (140°F) and a high pH, supports unique wildlife but is inhospitable to most species. Lake Natron is also surrounded by dramatic landscapes, including the nearby Ol Doinyo Lengai, an active volcano considered sacred by the Maasai people.

The Empakai Crater hike is a stunning trekking experience located in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area of northern Tanzania. The hike takes you down into the lush, forested Empakai Crater, which is about 6 kilometers in diameter and features a soda lake at its base. The lake attracts flamingos and other bird species, while the surrounding forest is home to buffalo, bushbucks, and a variety of smaller wildlife.

Nyerere National Park, formerly known as Selous Game Reserve, is Tanzania’s largest national park and perfect for those seeking quieter safari trails. After the area received national park status, all hunting was prohibited. Now Nyerere NP is an amazing destination for peacefully observing animals in their natural habitats.

Western parks

Mahale Mountains National Park, located near Lake Tanganyika, is one of Tanzania’s most remote parks.
