After an early breakfast in Arusha, your safari adventure begins with a scenic drive to Tarangire National Park. Along the way, you’ll pass bustling villages, open fields, and Maasai settlements, offering a glimpse into everyday life in northern Tanzania. Upon entering Tarangire, you’ll be greeted by vast savannahs scattered with ancient baobab trees that dominate the horizon. The park is home to some of the largest elephant herds in East Africa, and as you drive deeper, you’ll likely spot these gentle giants moving gracefully across the plains.
Your day will be spent on a thrilling game drive, seeking out not only elephants but also lions, leopards, giraffes, zebras, and wildebeests. Bird enthusiasts will marvel at the park’s impressive variety, with over 500 recorded species. A picnic lunch will be enjoyed inside the park before continuing your exploration. By evening, you’ll exit the park and head to your lodge for a warm dinner and overnight stay.

This morning, an early departure takes you towards the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Upon arrival, you’ll descend over 600 meters into the crater, one of the world’s most remarkable natural sanctuaries. The Ngorongoro Crater is home to more than 25,000 animals, making it one of the most densely populated wildlife areas on earth. Here, you’ll have the chance to spot the endangered black rhino, massive bull elephants with tusks stretching to the ground, and prides of lions lounging in the grass. Hippos wallow in pools, while flamingos and other waterbirds dot the crater’s lake.
Your game drive will continue throughout the day, with a picnic lunch served at a scenic spot near the hippo pool. As afternoon approaches, you’ll ascend from the crater and drive to Karatu, a charming highland town surrounded by farms and coffee plantations. Here, you’ll settle into your lodge, enjoying dinner and the cool highland breeze as you prepare for the final day of your safari.

After breakfast, your journey continues to Lake Manyara National Park, a gem celebrated for its diverse landscapes and abundant wildlife. The park begins with a lush groundwater forest where baboons chatter noisily and blue monkeys leap from branch to branch. As you move deeper, the scenery opens up to acacia woodlands and the shimmering waters of Lake Manyara itself. Here, flamingos gather in large flocks, painting the shoreline pink, while hippos wallow lazily in the shallows. With luck, you may even spot the park’s famous tree-climbing lions resting in the branches.
The game drive offers one final chance to soak in Tanzania’s wilderness. After a picnic lunch in the park, you’ll begin your drive back to Arusha, arriving by late afternoon. Your safari concludes here, with a drop-off at your hotel or the airport for onward travel. Though short, this safari leaves lasting impressions of Africa’s raw beauty and diverse wildlife.

Posted on cjlarson10Verified Unforgettable experience Had an amazing experience here!! Dennis was our main point of contact and he was great, he was very clear in communication, very prompt and sent a really nice and exact itinerary. We worked with him on what we were looking for and he delivered exactly that. Our guide on the safari was Yuma and he was just great! We saw some other cars with flat tires, ran out of gas, etc and Yuma was a pro and we never had any issues. The roads are definitely tricky but he did a great job navigating and making it as comfortable as possible. He also had a ton of knowledge about all the animals we saw, big and small, and we saw a ton!! The highlight was seeing a whole pack of mama lions with their cubs, we also saw male lions, zebras, hyenas, giraffes, hippos, crocodiles, ostriches, leopards, cheetahs, a blue cobra (very rare), baboons, elephants, and a million different birds. Our stays had amazing food, wine, and amenities. The van itself had wine, beer, water and packed lunches every day. Every detail was thought about and planned before we could even ask for it. Dennis even called ahead to a few hotels to let them know we were celebrating an anniversary and they really helped us celebrate. It was truly the trip of a lifetime and the perfect experience. 10/10 would recommend to any friend and already have! Thank you Dennis and team for an unforgettable experience!!Posted on jonnyadlerVerified BEST LUXURY SAFARI IN TANZANIA!!! I cannot recommend Howling Tours highly enough – this was truly the trip of a lifetime, and it was all thanks to Denis and his incredible team. From the very beginning, Denis went above and beyond to make everything seamless for us. He personally picked my mom up from the airport at 2am without hesitation, and then picked up my fiancé and me at 11pm with the same level of care and professionalism. Everything ran like clockwork, and that level of reliability set the tone for our entire safari experience.Denis also arranged for us to stay at some of the most incredible hotels in Tanzania, including several Melia properties, which were absolutely stunning. At more than one stop, Denis even called ahead to arrange special touches or upgrades for us, which made us feel truly cared for and added such a personal, thoughtful element to the journey. What amazed us most is that all of this was done without the kind of sky-high price tag you’d expect from such a luxury safari.Our driver, Yuma, deserves special recognition as well. He was extremely professional, kind, and knowledgeable, but what stood out most was his skill behind the wheel. On the safari roads, we saw plenty of vehicles broken down or pulled over, but Yuma kept us moving smoothly and safely the entire time. Thanks to him, we were able to maximize our time in the parks and, unbelievably, we saw all of the Big 5 (and then some!). It felt like every day was filled with once-in-a-lifetime sightings, and Yuma’s expertise and intuition were a huge reason why.After our safari, Denis’ sister helped arrange the Zanzibar portion of our trip, along with their guide Ania, and that was just as smooth and enjoyable. Everything was taken care of for us, so all we had to do was relax and soak in the beauty of the island.In short, every detail of our journey was handled with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. Denis and his team made us feel like family, not just clients. If you are considering a safari in Tanzania, do yourself a favor and book with Howling Tours. You will not only have an unforgettable adventure, but you’ll also have the peace of mind knowing that every little detail is being looked after by people who truly care. This was, without question, one of the best travel experiences of our lives.Posted on Boston BabeVerified Best Safari in Tanzania! Everything was spectacular! Dennis worked with us to design a perfect, dream safari. Our driver/tour guide Yuma was terrific- very knowledgeable about the animals and wildlife, patient with us as we explored. The Melia Hotels were luxurious, people could not have been more friendly. Had the same experience with this company in Zanzibar too. Dennis was always available and checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. I would highly recommend Dennis and his company!

From the moment we were picked up, our 4-day luxury safari with Howling Tours exceeded every expectation. Every detail was handled with professionalism and warmth, and we owe so much of that incredible experience to our guide and driver, Denis—an absolute gem!The vehicle was spotless, comfortable, and stocked with cold drinks and snacks, which made the long drives enjoyable. Denis was not only a skilled driver, navigating tough terrain with ease, but also incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife, the ecosystem, and even the small details that made the bush come alive. His ability to spot animals from a distance was unreal—we saw lions, elephants, giraffes, a leopard, and even a black rhino thanks to his sharp eyes and tracking expertise.The luxury accommodations arranged by Howling Tours were top-notch—beautiful lodges and tented camps that combined comfort with breathtaking views of the savannah. Every evening, we were greeted with warm hospitality, gourmet meals, and the sounds of nature just outside our rooms.What made this safari truly special, though, was Denis’s passion and energy. He was always on time, always in a great mood, and he clearly loves what he does. His respect for the animals and the land was inspiring, and he always made sure we had the best vantage points without disturbing the wildlife.We felt safe, informed, and totally immersed in the beauty of Tanzania throughout our trip. If you’re looking for a seamless luxury safari experience, Howling Tours is the way to go—and if you’re lucky enough to get Denis as your guide, you’re in for the trip of a lifetime!Posted on Izmir RVerified 2-Day Safari Tour We booked our safari with Howling Tours, and Denis was a great host. Everything went smoothly – from the pick-up at the airport to the first safari tour, and then back to the lodge (which was absolutely stunning).Everything was just as perfect on the second day as well.Since we didn’t have a return flight on Saturday evening, Denis kindly offered us a hotel stay (including transfer and meals) at no extra cost, so we could fly out the next morning.I can highly recommend Howling Tours, Denis, and his team. Thank you for this unforgettable adventure.Posted on Global59012226643Verified 9-day Kenya & Tanzania safari tour We joined a 9-day Kenya & Tanzania safari tour with Howling and overall had a fantastic experience!
