Excellent tour!
From start to finish we had absolutely no problems with Northern Circuit. Michael was very helpful and informative during the booking process, and was incredibly friendly when we met him after our airport pickup. Everything was on time and on schedule, there were no hiccups at all. Abdul was an excellent driver and very friendly and informative. Musa, our cook, was also very friendly and kept everyone on tour happy. Vegetarians were well taken care of. During the tour we were well informed about all of the animals and the eco-system. I would recommend this company to anyone.

Simply Awesome
I just came back from my honeymoon. I went to a safari with them from 28/11 to 3/12, a 5 day 4 nights safari. I paid an advance from my country by their web page & the rest was due the day i arrived to arusha, i enjoyed the safari so so much, we were picked up from Kilimajaro airport to the hotel for the night stay. Mike the ''Boss'' is so gentle & helpful, he came to greet me the first day we arrived to arusha at the hotel we chated a little telling him about my trip to zanzibar than gave me some tips about the safari.
Next morning we started our tour he came to wish us a good trip & introduce us to the Guide "Elias" -Great gide with an eye of an eagle, very familiar, funny & has alot of information that he shared it with us- & The cook "Robert". He is a great cooker They respected that my wife was vegetarian & he always makes something vegi for her.
The safari was well organized, the food was great, the company is awesome. We enjoyed every second in the trip a big thanks to ELIAS ''the guide'' & Big Big thanks to Mike ''the boss'' a great Man.

Wonderful Tanzanian Safari
We found Northern Circuit Adventure online and booked a 3-day Safari. From the beginning we were impressed by professionalism and organizational skills of the Manager Michael who was replying to plenty of our emails and questions consistently and without delays. By the time we arrived to Kilimanjaro Airport the driver was already waiting for us and we felt safe and comfortable on the way to the hotel. Throughout our whole adventure we were amazed by punctuality of Northern Circuit Adventure staff. Our guide and driver Dennis was extremely polite, punctual, with good manners and had a great knowledge of the wild life of Tanzania. We had our own chief Sweetbart who was treating us with yummy food and who amazed us by quickly adjusting to our vegetarian diet which we forgot to inform them about in advance.
Thanks to Northern Circuit Adventure we had amazing time in Tanzania we got unforgettable impressions and will never forget our adventure. Generally the whole experience not only met but exceeded our expectations. We would definitely recommend this company to all travelers going to Tanzania.

Amazing Safari Experience
We booked a 4 day Safari (Lake Manyara, Serengeti & Ngorongoro) with Northern Circuit Adventure in November 2014. Everything was well organized and planned . We arrived in Kilimanjaro and a taxi driver was waiting for us at the airport. He took us straight to the hotel (Clouds View hotel) which had nice hot showers and good food at a very reasonable price ($40 per night for two persons on B&B). Our guide was a very responsible person and English speaking named Dennis. He knew everything about the natural reserve parks, Animals & Tanzanian Culture. Also the chef named Musa always took care of us when it comes to food. The Manager from Northern Circuit named Michael is very helpful and a great guy. I strongly recommend Northern Circuit Adventure for Safari in Tanzania.

excellent
everything was well planned. guide ( dennis) was amazing; well informed and uptodate with information. the price was the cheapest on the market. our first stay was in clouds view hotel, and it was the first warm shower in weeks, everything clean. best hotel in tanzania. we also ate there on our first night before safari and the food was the freashest we ever taste. the food in safari was also very good and fresh. no diarrhoea in weeks, really tastey and warm. this was the highlight of our tanzanian holiday. the person we dealt with Micheal nDALLO was amazing and really helpful with sites to visit and everything. definately not disapointing

2-Day Safari (Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro)
We traveled with Children and we only wanted a short Safari trip. We contacted many tour operators but finally we decided to go for Northern Circuit and we are glad we did. Northern Circuit arranged pick up at the airport, hotel (before, during and after the Safari) and arranged transport back to the airport for further adventures. Our plane was delayed with 10 hours. Instead of landing on the evening we landed early in the morning. Michael and his driver slept in the bus at the airport and when we arrived they stood outside the airport waiting for us. The guides were very friendly, knowledgeable and easy to talk with. We had two great days in Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro. The last night Michael came to our hotel and socialized with us and in the morning he came and sad good bye before we left. I strongly recommend Northern Circuit as your tour operator for your Safari.

Great 6-day safari
There were 3 of us on a 6 day safari, covering Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorogoro Crater, and Lake Manyara. Our guide was Dennis and our cook was Rhodrick. Both were excellent, especially Dennis who was very knowledgeable, friendly and easy to talk to.
The food was good, fairly simple, but fresh and there was lots of it. The campsites were all clean and Dennis provided us with everything we needed (eg sleeping bags, toilet paper).
We saw loads of wildlife and Dennis always made sure we had the maximum amount of time in all the national parks. He even took a detour on our way out of the serengeti to try and catch a pride of lions for us. And when the shock absorber on our jeep broke he spent 2 evenings at a neighbouring campsite getting it fixed so we didn't miss any game viewing time (kindly charging all our camera batteries at the same time).
Micheal was there to meet us at the start and finish of out safari, and was always quick to respond to our emails when planning our trip. Our only criticism of Northern Circuit is that we had agreed on a slightly different itinerary, spending 2 nights in the northern region of the serengeti, to try and see the migration. When we arrived we were told it wasn't really necessary, and we instead went to a different public campsite in the central region. I think the main reason for the change is that we wouldn't have been able to get there in the time, but that should have been discussed with us during our planning.
Apart from that we had a great time and would recommend this company.

Review about a 5 day safari (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro)
I was on a 5 day safari including Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro in August, 2014.
I had a wonderful time on the safari. I was completely satisfied with our driver,Hassani and our cook, Pius. They both made the trip unforgettable, with their knowledge, sense of humor and kindness. Hassani proved to be a wonderful driver and guide, who knew everything about wildlife and always found the animals we were looking for.
Pius concocted the most amazing and tasty foods there are!
The luxury tents just outside of Tarangire were fabulous, and i loved sleeping in our tents in Serengeti and Nngorongoro.
The national parks were amazing and we were lucky enough to see the big 5!
Thank you for your professionalism Hassani, Pius and everybody at Northern Circuit Adventure, who made this trip amazing! I would highly recommend this outfit to anybody!

Beautiful landscapes and plenty of animals in few days
We went for a five day tent safari and were really satisfied with the trip. Camping in Serengeti was the best, tented lodges were nice but less interesting. We saw all the animals you could possibly hope for thanks to our driver who always went to the right places. Dinner was always very tasty. Mike was very helpful, driving us around in Arusha ;-). To sum it up: Great experience for little money!

Excellent, well organized 6-day tent safari with Northern Circuit Adventures
We booked in advance a 6-day safari, including Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorogoro Crater.
Communication/service:
Communication with Mike was fast, informative and very friendly. Example: We arrived in Arusha and decided to make an one-day safari in Arusha National Park. We called Mike for an offer, met him few hours later and he organized a perfect one-day Arusha National Park trip for us within minutes.
Safari tour:
The safari tour itself was incredible, it was really worth it. The tour was perfectly organized, the driver informed us very well about all the different animals and we had a lot of fun on the tour. He was very friendly and patient when we took all the photos.
Our chef Mr. D(elicious) cooked very well and set up the tents.
Conclusion:
Outstanding organisation, good value for money, beautiful safari tour, delicious food.
We would absolutely recommend booking with Nothern Circuit Safari.
