7-Day Northern Tanzania Self-Drive Safari
Embark on an unforgettable 7-day Northern Tanzania self-drive safari. This trip is perfect for travelers who want freedom, adventure, and flexibility. Drive your own 4×4 Land Cruiser with a rooftop tent and full camping gear. Explore iconic parks and experience nature on your own terms.
This self-drive safari leads you from village life in Mto wa Mbu to the dramatic Ngorongoro Crater. You’ll also visit Lake Manyara and the vast plains of the Serengeti. Along the way, encounter elephants, lions, and maybe the Big Five. This adventure offers full immersion in the wild.
Arusha – Gateway to the North
Arusha is the starting point for your Northern Tanzania self-drive safari. It’s located at the foot of Mount Meru and near Kilimanjaro Airport (JRO). The town has hotels, rental services, markets, and everything you need before hitting the road.
Lake Manyara National Park
This compact park offers diverse landscapes and wildlife. It’s known for tree-climbing lions, big elephants, and thousands of birds. You’ll drive through forest, savannah, and lakeside wetlands—all in just a few hours.
Ngorongoro Conservation Area
The Ngorongoro Crater is the largest intact volcanic caldera on Earth. It holds over 30,000 animals in one area, including rhinos and lions. The crater is also home to Maasai herders living nearby.
Serengeti National Park
The Serengeti is the highlight of any Northern Tanzania self-drive safari. Wide open plains and big predators make it unforgettable. If you’re lucky, you’ll see the Great Migration too. The Seronera region is the best place for game viewing year-round.
