Day 1
Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) or Arusha Airport (ARK), you will be met by one of our representatives who will pick you up, brief you, general introduction, and drive you straight to your accommodation in Arusha for overnight stay. Mid-range lodge located in Arusha (City) Breakfast (Lunch & dinner not included) Drinking water (Other drinks not included)
Day 2
After an early breakfast in your comfort lodge, you will drive to Tarangire National Park with packed lunch for a game drive. This lovely park has the largest concentrations of elephants in the world and the highest number of breeding bird species. Especially during the dry season, Tarangire National Park is packed with wildlife. Big cats like lions, cheetahs and leopards, but also the seldom seen Kudu, Oryx and Gerenuk. The Tarangire River draws huge herds of wildebeest, zebras, gazelles, as well as predators who prey upon them. Post the game drive, you will head to accommodation for relaxation and where a delicious dinner and overnight awaits you. Mid-range lodge located 1-2hr drive from Tarangire NP All meals included Non-alcoholic drinks
Day 3
After breakfast, we hit the road to experience the wonderful Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the Seven Wonders of Africa. More precisely termed - a caldera - this is the best place for game viewing in all of Tanzania. An enclosed ecosystem, the caldera is home to some 25,000 large mammals. Descending down the bumpy, winding track toward the caldera floor, we note our passage through several different climactic zones until, 600m down, we roam out onto the broad expanse. We can expect to see buffalo, wildebeest, zebra, gazelle, elephant, reedbuck, and Thomson's gazelle. We may spot our predator friends like lion and cheetah lounging in the grass or in action, and some of the more than 500 bird species that inhabit this area. With a little bit of luck, we might catch a glimpse of the endangered black rhino through the grass. After our extensive game drive within the crater, we return to our carefully selected quality lodge in Karatu. Mid-range lodge located 1-2hr drive from Ngorongoro Crater All meals included Non-alcoholic drinks
Day 4
After breakfast, we hit the road to Lake Manyara National Park. Manyara, known for its namesake lake which covers some 70 percent of the park area, is famed for its tree-climbing lions. Our game drive takes us to the lakeshore where, whilst viewing the thousands of feeding flamingos, we can hope to spot monkeys, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, buffalos, elephants, and with some luck, lions lounging in the trees. The park is known for its diverse landscapes; not only open grassy plains but also primate-filled woodlands and baobab-dotted cliffs. Animals gather at the river and giraffe, bushbuck, and hartebeest are often seen. The park is also home to buffalo, zebra, and wildebeest, all of whom are closely attended by a range of predators like Simba the lion king and his cousin, the leopard. After lunch and extensive game drive, we head back to Arusha. Breakfast & lunch (Dinner not included) Non-alcoholic drinks

5.0/5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Safari Experience with Signature Safari – Alen Made It Unforgettable We had an incredible week exploring the Serengeti, Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara with Signature Safari—thanks in large part to our outstanding tour guide Alan and our talented personal chef Gama. Alen truly made this trip something special. His deep knowledge of the parks and wildlife, paired with an almost instinctive sense of where to find animals, meant we were always in the right place at the right time—from spotting lion cubs playing near their pride to watching elephants cross right in front of our jeep. He shared fascinating insights throughout the journey, was endlessly patient with our questions, and made every drive feel like a true adventure. The trip was beautifully organized, with smooth logistics and comfortable accommodations throughout. And while we were out exploring, Chef Gama kept us well fed with delicious meals—always fresh, varied, and impressively good given the remote settings. If you’re planning a safari in Tanzania, we can’t recommend Signature Safari highly enough—especially if you can go with Alen. It’s a journey we’ll never forget! Wenn Ihr eine Safari nach Tansania plant, können wir Signature Safari nur wärmstens empfehlen – vor allem, wenn Ihr mit Alen unterwegs sein könnt. Es war eine Reise, die wir nie vergessen werden!

It was an amazing experience to climb Mt Kilimanjaro and 3 days safari. Highly recommended
Jyoti · India
Innocent and his team at Signature Safari did a great job creating this experience for our honeymoon. We did five days in Tanzania’s northern circuit including Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater, and Lake Manyara, followed by a five day stay on Zanzibar. We loved the accommodations at Kitela, Kubu Kubu, and the Royal Zanzibar. Kubu Kubu was particularly spectacular in the Serengeti. Our guide during the safari, Alan, was fantastic. He did a great job finding animals, getting us great positioning for photos, explaining the management of the parks, and teaching us some Swahili. Overall, we had wonderful experience and would highly recommend Signature Safari!
