Great Adventure; Excellent Service; Fantastic Trip
We did five nights camping and six days, covering Tarangire, Serengeti and Lake Manyara national parks and Ngorongoro Crater. Service was great all around. Our guide, Fred, was personable and knowledgeable, very engaging and fun with great stories. Chef Bruno cooked simple and delicious meals and packed full picnic lunches. Everything went on schedule. This was a budget safari and it was a very good value for the money. We highly recommend Northern Circuit Adventure.

Fantastic tour
We choosed this operator due to great rewiews and affordable prices, and they did not dissapoint us. We sent on the four day- five night safari and found this lenght perfect because we found all the animals and was happy when we were finished. We had a great tour with our guide Dennis and our chef and caretaker Rodrick. Dennis is a professional guide that knows so much about the animals, nature and masai-people, and we learned alot from him! He drove to the right places both with using his radio and not. Couldn't been more happy with our happy, friendly and professional guide :-) Rodrick made us all our meals, cleaned up, helped us with tents, packed the car - and was always happy! The food was great and always on time, Thank you! would absolutely recommend this tour operator it you like camping and living very close to the animals.

safari begins with a description of gorgeous places you are going to visit
A safari begins with a description of gorgeous places you are going to visit, the guide will tell you that you will see animals depending on what nature decide to show, nature has been generous with us.
The photos are all made by us, and nature was friendly and showed us wildlife.

Exhilirating Experience
Nothing but good words. Mike is very professional. Elias and Sweetbart are awesome guide/chef combo. Saw Black Mamba/Migration/Everything. Thank you to all involved.
They really care!
Michael, the manager was really caring about everyones personal well-being. He gave really valuable information, advice and helpful.
He couldn't have been more professional and human at the same time.
Dennis, our driver and guide was full of information and interesting anecdotes. He and the cook were very easy to get along with and pleasant to talk to.

Amazing experience - highlight of our holiday
Michael, the owner of the company, answered to all my emails swiftly and professionally. He picked us up from the bus terminal and drove us to the clouds view hotel for the first night before the safari. The hotel was clean, the rooms nice, the food fresh and reasonably priced and the staff lovely and attentive. The safari itself exceeded all our expectations. Our driver Dennis was super lovely and we were actually a little sad when we had to say goodbye at the end of our safari. Our chef Abbe cooked the most delicious meals containing lots of fresh fruit and vegetables which we loved. They both made our trip perfect. There were only three of us in a small group safari, it alwas actually nearly a private safari for a very decent price considering the park entrance fees. We visited the serengeti where we drove all the way to the mara region to see the migration which was incredible. The camping site was tiny and clean it felt very exclusive. The tents and mattress/sleeping bags were all good too. Lastly we went to Ngorongoro which was busier but still very nice. We didn't realise how cold it would get so I'd recommend bringing some warm kit! If I go on safari again I would definitely go with Michael's company again and ask for Dennis and Abbe!

Great 5 day Safari tour
The best experience from Africa!
It was good since the beginning, Michael replied emails immediately with lots of advices regarding travel and getting to Arusha. After that, it was only better. We were picked up from the bus station and driven to the Clouds View Hotel, which was clean and tidy.
Our Safari group consisted of 6 people was selected great.
The Guide was very experienced and knowledgeable. He could spot animals from far away and gave us many informations about them and the national parks in general. He knew the answer to all our questions which was impressing. It was easy to notice that he was familiar with animal behavior and habits.
The food was surprisingly great, we've never expected to have so tasty and varied meals. The Chef was very skilled.
Our camps were nice with showers, tents were big and solid. Every part of our tour was organized very well with big involvement.
As a matter of fact, we had wonderful experience. The group and the staff, we had great social time as well, with lots of laugh during our Safari.
I will strongly recomend Northern Circuit Adventure.

Great service for a three day tour
Northern Circuit Adventure delivered exactly what was expected - and the service was excellent. Michael is clearly keen to provide the best experience and his communicaiton was great, including arriving to welcome us personally as well as checking in post trip that everything had worked well. Our driver Dennis was great - knowledgable and friendly, giving us the right amount of information and never giving us the impression we were simply the next bunch of tourists to pass through. I would definately recommend Northern Circuit Adventure.
PS. try to have cash with you or pay up front as getting cash out of the ATM in Arusha was a bit tricky!

Fantastic staff and a great value for your money.
I had an excellent experience overall. The tour director
(Mike), our driver/guide (Elias), and chef (Musa) were all amazing and accommodating. Musa, hands down was the best chef and he cooked the tastiest food I've had in Tanzania. Elias was a great driver and guide. He would always be on the lookout for animals unlike what we heard from some of the other tourists. Mike, by far, provided the best customer service during my whole Africa vacation. When our flight got cancelled out of JRO, he went to the Precision Air office and rescheduled our flighs. He didn't have to do this as it was the day after the tour had ended. Kudos to Mike for helping us out.
The areas we visited were all typical locations that all tours go to. We were disappointed that we couldn't go off-road or go on night tours. Turns out that another permit is required to do that. If you would like to go off road then I suggest inquiring about it before the safari.
I had an amazing 4-days with NCA and I would recommend it to my friends.

The Best Tour Operator in Tanzania
We had a great time with Northern Circuit. Mike is awesome - although we booked our own flights after the safari, Mike went out of his way and rushed to the airline to help us reschedule our flights after our flights were cancelled. We were so worried but Mike saved the day.
Our tour guide and cook during the safari were amazing as well. I have nothing but good things to say about the duo. They allowed us to take our time with pictures and would nudge us when we were being slow. NCA is an experienced operator and I will definitely be booking with them again!
