Extend Your Safari Adventure & Make Your Expedition Epic!
Why Safari?
Why not Safari?! An Expedition to Tanzania would not be complete without visiting the National Parks. Tanzania boasts some of the best National Parks in the world, with a great success rate for seeing the big five, along with thousands of other wonderful mammals, birds and reptiles. With more animal mass per square kilometre than any other country in the world, you are not going to be disappointed. The parks have a diverse range of landscapes and habitats with stunning views. Each park offers something special, so it’s all about choosing the perfect park for you and your group.
We offer a range of options for safari, all run by our partners, Safari Care, who have been in the business for many years. They are invested in our work and company at Green Light Ventures, so we are able to offer you quality safaris at very competitive prices.
To see more of the parks, landscapes and wildlife, please visit our Tanzanian Wildlife Gallery.
Safari - Additional Park Options
Your 1 day safari is already included!
But you can extend your Safari to 2 or more days for the chance to see more!
As part of your Expedition package, you will take part in a 1-day safari (usually Tarangire National Park), but there is an option to extend to 2 or more days safari! This gives you a chance to experience even more of Tanzania’s amazing wildlife. You will be staying next to the incredible Tarangire and Lake Manyara National Parks. You can also add Adventures to your Expedition.
Serengeti National Park
Probably the best known wildlife sanctuary in the world for spotting big game. One would be unlucky not to spot the big 5. The perfect park for viewing cats and other predators, with prides of lions, cheetahs, leopards, hyenas, jackals and African hunting dogs, there will be no shortage of action. In the right season, you can see one of the world’s greatest spectacles, where hundreds of thousands of wildebeest migrate through the plains and rivers of the Serengeti, creating opportune hunting for predators such as lions and crocodiles.
Serengeti National Park is nearly 15,000 km of endless plains teeming with animal life that will not disappoint. Your only regret will be that you wish you could stay for longer.
Note: As the Serengeti is so large, this park needs a minimum of 3 days to experience it.

Ngorongoro Crater
Ngorongoro Crater was voted one of the 7 Natural wonders of the world in 2013. Once you’ve gazed on the sheer spectacle of the largest intact caldera in the world, you can understand why. A crater formed by a volcanic eruption millions of years ago, giving life to a wildlife paradise where dense populations of large mammals have entered and never found a reason to leave. Here it’s possible to spot the endangered Black Rhino, where only 5000 are left in existence. Also home to flamingo, crowned crane, lion, elephant, leopard, cheetah, serval, hyena, buffalo, wildebeest, zebra, giraffe, hippo, ostrich, monkey, baboon, gazelle and antelope, there is a huge diversity of species to view. Not only is the animal life, but the geography is like no other, with the crater rim giving a wonderful panoramic view at all times encompassing a number of different ecological zones, including acacia woodland, forest, grassland plains, lakes and craggy outcrops.

Tarangire National Park
Tarangire is home to many Baobab trees and elephant families. The landscape view is like a spectacular art piece of rich colours broken up by tusk-chiselled Baobab trees, and of course, the tusker itself and an endless supply for that matter. The name Tarangire actually gets its name from the Warthog, of which one can see plenty. The park, especially around its main river, is a great place to watch a lion hunt unfold, much like on a David Attenborough documentary, but now it’s real and you feel part of the action.
Tarangire National Park is included in your Expedition package, but why not extend your safari adventure

Lake Manyara National Park
A smaller but very attractive national park with diverse and unusual landscape. Lake Manyara is situated on the edge of the Great Rift Valley escarpment which gives life to the lake itself. The lake is a salt lake which is inhabited by flamingoes who use it as a breeding ground. Hippos can be viewed in pools surrounding the eastern shores. The park has a beautiful woodland which gives life to a rich diversity of bird and butterfly populations and antelope that you are unlikely to see elsewhere. Forest elephants occupy these areas also but this park is best known for its tree climbing lions.

Arusha National Park
Arusha National Park is less visited than the other parks but a fantastic option for a one-day safari out of Arusha. With Mount Meru situated in the west, the park has a special atmosphere to it and with habitats not found in any other parks, Arusha National park is quite special. The park does not offer as much as the other parks in terms of big game spotting but does offer views of Kilimanjaro, attractive lakes and forest woodlands teaming with monkey and bird life. You are sure still sure to bump into the occasional sightings of giraffe, buffalo, zebra, warthog and elephant.
