Itinerary idea in detail
Your Safari guide will collect you from your accommodation early morning. You will then drive to Tarangire National Park. This transit drive is approximately two and a half hours on good tarmac roads. The Park is named after the Tarangire River which runs through it. This ‘river of warthogs’ is the only source of water for wildlife in the region during the dry season. The Park is well known for its elephant families, which can often be seen congregating by the river. You may also see giraffe, bushbuck, and hartebeest. These animals are closely followed by a range of predators, including lions and leopards. There are more breeding species of birds found in Tarangire than anywhere else on the planet! The huge and ancient Baobab trees can be seen here. Some of them are said to have lived for more than a thousand years.
Lunch will be at a picnic site inside the park. After your game drive, you will transit to your accommodation.

Early morning after breakfast, we depart to Serengeti National Park. The Serengeti is truly spectacular. It is famous for its vast open grasslands which allow for excellent sightings of wildlife. The Serengeti is Tanzania’s oldest National Park and it is also one of the oldest ecosystems on earth. Its climate and vegetation have remained largely untouched for millions of years. Whilst the Serengeti boasts abundant wildlife, it is perhaps best known for the annual Great Migration. Vast numbers of wildebeest; accompanied by large numbers of zebra and antelope move in an annual pattern, constantly seeking fresh grazing. The precise timing of the Migration is entirely dependent upon the rainfall patterns each year.
After Lunch and an extensive game drive, we head for our hotel for dinner and overnight.

Words From Our Happy Clients
EXCELLENT Based on 107 reviews Posted on NaserVerified Safari of lifetime I booked 3 nights in Ndutu to see the great migration and the tour was a safari of lifetime , everything was very well organised , the guide Daniel was very helpful and informative and the boss Jacob was very helpful and very friendly he arrange everything and everything was very excellent , i highly recommend in this companyPosted on Claire BVerified Amazing Safari experience From start to finish, we had a fantastic experience. Everything was meticulously planned and we were communicated with at about every detail. Everyone that we encountered from the taxi drivers to the boat driver was lovely, very friendly and would do anything to make us happy. The flights were exciting, I've never been on a small plane before but we loved it. The safari itself was a once in a lifetime experience and Mr Famous and Elizabeth made it extremely special. We saw all of the animals, had a lovely breakfast and lunch out in the bush and even got to take a call of nature in the most natural place on earth! The safari lodges were beautiful and very comfortable, we didnt want to leave! Thomas and the other staff were very friendly and the food was delicious. We really enjoyed our safari walk around the bush and learnt so much about maasai life. The river boat safari was also a lot of fun and all of our guides were very knowledgeable. I highly recommend this excursion, it was the highlight of our trip to Zanzibar and we felt like VIPs. Thank you, Smile with us Tours.Posted on Joe MVerified Stefan in Mikumi Stefan in Mikumi was phenomenal. In one day we got close ups on all the best animals - lions, baboons, giraffes, antelopes, vervets, southern ground Hornbill and the rest. He really knew his stuff. Would recommend to anyone. A very reliable pick.Posted on Carl-Johan dVerified Safari at Mikumi National Park My friend and I went on a one day safari trip i Mikumi National Park. Our guide Stephano Boniphace was assigned to us and he took on his job very well! Stephano is very well educated and has a very profound attitude towards his job and with great pride he took us on a safari trip we will never forget! Stephano is very kind, caring and speaks with a very calm voice about everything and literally this guy knows EVERYTHING!!! It doesn’t matter if he is talking about small birds and leaves on the threes or elephants and lions, Stephano delivers his knowledge in an easy understandable way and he makes ANYTHING interesting!!! I highly recommend Stephano as a guide to anyone and if he gets a chance to get promoted I would say that that would be right man at the right place!Posted on AndyMBarberVerified Hands down the best tour! Absolutely incredible experience with Stephano from Smile With Us Tours on our 3-day safari, especially our unforgettable day in Mikumi National Park! Stephano is hands-down one of the best guides we’ve ever had—knowledgeable, calm under pressure, and full of passion for wildlife and Tanzanian culture. Despite it being rainy season—which always brings a few surprises—he handled every challenge with total professionalism and an easygoing attitude that kept the day flowing smoothly. We were thrilled to spot 3 of the Big Five (elephants, buffalo, and lions!) amidst the lush green scenery of Mikumi. The park itself is a hidden gem, especially during the wet season when the landscape bursts into vibrant life. Herds of zebra and wildebeest grazed the plains, giraffes moved elegantly through the trees, and hippos wallowed happily in flooded pools. After our game drive, Stephano took us on a fascinating visit to a Maasai village—a truly eye-opening cultural experience. The warmth and hospitality of the Maasai people, their traditions, and their songs and dances added such depth to our trip. It was humbling and unforgettable. We ended the day at Camp Bastian, a charming eco-lodge tucked into the forest with great food, friendly staff, and a relaxing atmosphere to unwind after an action-packed day. This safari was the perfect mix of adventure, nature, and culture, all made possible by Stephano’s expert guiding. Smile With Us Tours exceeded all expectations—we couldn’t recommend them more highly.Posted on Andreas DVerified Wunderschöne und spannende Safari Hervorragend organisiert, außerordentlich kompetente und super sympathische Guides! Sehr schöne Unterkünfte. Die Reise war ein großartiges Erlebnis!Posted on andrea sVerified Highly recommended Fantastic experience! The guys picked us up at our hotel and took us to the airport. From there we landed directly inside Nyerere Park. We visited the park both in the morning and in the evening. They offered us an excellent lunch in total relaxation. Really Super recommendedPosted on Jim JVerified Taking the road less travel to experience Tanzania wildlife reserves as you would have 75 years ago I worked directly with Smile with Us Tours in Africa to book a 9-day safari in southern Tanzania to the lesser visited parks--Nyerere, Mikumi, Udzungwa Mountains, and Ruaha National Parks. I was assigned to the travel program as curator of education at a top US zoo, so I knew wildlife safari operations and possibilities. I purposely chose these lesser visited parks as I wanted to experience African ecosystems and wildlife without the crowds and swarms of vehicles--I wasn't disappointed as three days we only encountered two to four other vehicles! We saw a plethora of wildlife, including birds and the landscape was beautiful and the ecosystem was intact. Smile with Us Tours in Africa worked with me to customize their 8-day fly by safari and even arranged a visit to a site they had never gone to before. They listened and added a variety of activities, 2-night drives, a walking safari with rangers, and two cultural experiences with the Maasai. The daily itinerary was full, but our driver/guide shortened a couple of days so we could relax at our "camps". The three camps where we stayed at were very nice and the staff worked diligently to take care of our needs and desires. Smile with Us Tours offered the option to upgrade our camps if we wished. The food was varied and offered a variety of local and continental dishes. There were always choices and plenty of vegetables and fruits. Our driver/guide went out of his way to listen to us and work to meet our wishes and expectations (as much as possible). He worked 12-14 hours each day and provided us with some extra experiences and tastes that were not part of the itinerary. It was nice to have additional guides join us and help lead the safari drives, boat trip, night drives, hikes and walking safari. Our driver/guide recognized that he needed to improve on his English comprehension, but overall, he very good as a leader and his personality was fun loving, yet serious and concerned that we had a great experience. The land cruiser was adequate, but showed some wear and tear as the roads were rough on a vehicle. There was plenty of room in the vehicle and the roof raised to allow all of us good viewing of the wildlife we encountered. We had a couple of minor maintenance issues, but they were remedied quickly or taken to the "shop" after we were dropped off at camp. All in all, great value for the 9-day safari and I would recommend you book with Smile with Us Tours in Africa.Posted on rabia_hVerified Bumpy rides but all good fun we did 2 day safari day one was Tarangire national park we had 1 night stay at farm of dreams lodge and second day we did norongoro creater it was such a surreal experience. Defo one ticked off the bucket list, our driver was great very informative and great company, food and drink was included but what I can say is the standard of food could be better, and the cars could be more modern but apart from that it was great, I would say bring your own snacks and bring warm clothing for the mornings, they are bitter cold, we had booked the whole package with smile with us so they arranged transport to and from the airportPosted on Lee AVerified The best!! From the absolute start we were treated exceptionally. Our driver Abduhl was very prompt and couldn’t have been nicer The flight over was amazing and once we arrived at the park the same treatment resumed Our guide Kennedy and our driver Dula were an amazing duo! We managed to spot so many animals and Kennedy was on hand to give us information about them. His knowledge of the whole savanna was incredible. I’d give this tour 100 stars if I could
