It is an exciting African wildlife safari in two of the most spectacular national game parks in Tanzania.
This unforgettable Tanzania safari will take you to the Ngorongoro Crater, featuring one of the highest concentrations of game in Africa. Here you will witness an amazing spectacle of African wildlife - inside a self-contained world, teeming with animals.
Your tour will also take you to the Lake Manyara National Park, one of Tanzania's most dramatically located wildlife areas, consisting of a shallow but huge soda lake, at the foot of the Great Rift Valley's western escarpment. The size of both the selected Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro Crater national parks, make them a perfect choice for our shorter safari.

5.00Our safari in early 2026 was exceptionally organized. The Ngorongoro Crater descent offered dense wildlife viewing, including black rhinos and hippos. Tarangire’s elephant herds were equally spectacular. Excellence Africa Adventures provided clear pricing, honest communication, and professional service. Airport transfers were punctual, and our guide ensured we maximized each game drive. The attention to detail made this trip comfortable and unforgettable.

5.00I would rate 5 Star for this Local Company We had the absolute privilege of booking a safari with Kilisa Tours & Safari, and I can honestly say their service is nothing short of 5-star excellence. From the very first communication to the final day of our trip, the entire experience was handled with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. Our guide was incredibly skilled at spotting wildlife and shared insightful knowledge about the animals, landscapes, and cultures. Every game drive was exciting and perfectly paced, and the accommodations selected by Kilisa Tours were comfortable and well-suited to the authentic safari experience. I would recommend this service to anyone as they deliver not only on organization and expertise but also on creating memories that will last a lifetime.
