The so called Northern Circuit, centred on Serengeti and Ngorongoro, is generally considered to be the best location for traditional overland safaris, providing an awesome combination of scenery, wildlife and culture.
This is also where the incredible migration of thousands of wildebeest and zebra takes place.
Northern Tanzania is also home to several tribes, most notably the Maasai and the Hadzabe.
Nearby Mount Kilimanjaro is arguably one of the world's most beautiful and romantic mountain peaks... and both are located within a short flight of the wonderful tropical beaches of Zanzibar, Pemba and Mafia islands.
