Planning a safari to Tanzania<\/a>? Fantastic choice! While everyone talks about the Great Migration in the north (and believe us, it\u2019s spectacular), we want to let you in on a place that holds a special spot in our hearts: the incredible south. You\u2019ll find a different kind of magic here \u2013 wilder, more remote, and deeply authentic. Here are our safari secrets when it comes to going on a Southern Tanzania safari.<\/p>\n

Northern versus Southern Tanzania safari<\/h2>\n

Western and Southern Tanzania safaris are often overlooked, when it comes to planning a safari holiday in East Africa. But if you\u2019re not dead set on having to see the Great Migration, we wholeheartedly believe that Southern Tanzania safaris offer top-notch off the beaten track<\/a> wildlife experiences.<\/p>\n

And we\u2019re willing to prove it too, without detracting from the inspirational experiences you\u2019ll encounter in the world-famous Serengeti<\/a>, along the banks of Lake Manyara<\/a>, or within Ngorongoro Crater<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Needless to say, it\u2019s simple to combine a safari along the Northern and Southern Tanzania circuits thanks to regular scheduled flights between Dar es Salaam<\/a>, all of Tanzania\u2019s<\/a> national parks, and the Swahili Coast.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re still undecided though, check out our detailed guide to the best national parks in Tanzania<\/a>.<\/p>\n
