Discover The Northern Circuit

Embark on an enchanting exploration of Tanzania’s Northern Circuit, a captivating route that showcases the country’s most iconic natural wonders and cultural treasures. Beginning in the vibrant city of Arusha, gateway to Tanzania’s northern safari circuit, travelers are immersed in the rich tapestry of East African life and hospitality. From there, the journey unfolds into a tapestry of diverse landscapes and wildlife habitats, with highlights including the legendary Serengeti National Park, renowned for its annual Great Migration and unparalleled wildlife viewing opportunities. Traverse the sprawling plains where lions roam freely and vast herds of wildebeest thunder across the savannah.

Continuing the adventure, travelers venture into the ancient Ngorongoro Crater, a geological marvel teeming with an astonishing concentration of wildlife within its steep walls. Nearby, the lush forests of the Ngorongoro Highlands offer a tranquil retreat, where encounters with indigenous Maasai communities provide a glimpse into traditional East African culture and way of life. Concluding the circuit, the majestic peaks of Mount Kilimanjaro beckon, standing as a towering sentinel over the East African landscape and offering intrepid climbers the ultimate adventure. With its blend of breathtaking scenery, diverse ecosystems, and rich cultural heritage, the Tanzania Northern Circuit promises an unforgettable journey through one of Africa’s most captivating destinations.

We had a fantastic experience of 7 days of safari in several parks and we saw the big five!. The lodges were very confortables and one was tents in the middle of the savannah. That was amazing! Our guide Andrew was very kind, considerate, very invested and spoke very well French . We recommend this agency also because they were very responsive to our requests, specially Steve Thanks to all the staff for the kindness and the wonderful experience we had

 Verified Unforgettable moments, laughter and exceptional service they provided
Our tour operator had pre-arranged several excursions through Soul Retreat Tours, which we modified and expanded during our stay in Mikumi. Every driver, guide, and especially Stephen, who coordinated everything, were outstanding. They ensured that no question went unanswered, and all the programs provided were of the highest quality. We are particularly thankful for the last-minute adjustments made to accommodate us. Honestly, we wish we had booked directly with Soul Retreat Tours from the start instead of our initial operators.
