This could be the ultimate Bucket List trip for some people. At the Bucket List Company, we have always included a small add-on Safari at the end of our Kilimanjaro trips. But some people don’t want to climb a mountain first – they just want the Ultimate Safari Experience. On this trip, we have included some of the best Safaris that Tanzania has to offer, including a trip to the Serengeti during the annual migration. 

This trip will visit the Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara, the Ngorongoro Crater, and the Serengeti. 

Although, we can never guarantee seeing the Big 5, with this amount of choice it is going to be as close as you are ever going to get! 

If you are travelling all the way to Tanzania, you would be a fool not to add on some extra time and head to Zanzibar to check out the white sandy beaches and relax after your ultimate safari adventure! 

If you would like to visit Tanzania but don’t want to climb Kilimanjaro just yet, then this could be the perfect trip for you.
