Exciting adventurous expansive fun
Jambo Mike!
we have to say that we really enjoyed our time in Tanzania and that our stay was made that much better for our time spent on safari.
Both Ben our cook and Ben our guide were fantastic, good food always and patient informative tour guiding too.
We got lucky with the diversity of animals we got to see and that is to do with Ben's keen interest and good eyesight! The information we received regarding the animals was top quality.
And all through our "journey" even right till the end both Bens were very helpful and friendly.
We say thank you and naturally wish your business continued success. We have already recommended your services.
Asante sana,
Paul & Geri

Northern Circuit Adventure they allowed us to live a once in a lifetime experience!
Thank you for everything, we had a wonderful 4 days safari in Tarangire national park, Serengeti national park and Ngorongoro Crater. Our guide/driver Issac and our cook Ben were amazing. We saw almost all the animal we wanted to see except the black rhino, but it doesn't matter. Thanks to Northern Circuit Adventure for this memorable safari.

Organization was good.
Mike spoke in detail about the possible safari options, and two, and three, and a greater number of days. We have chosen the best possible option - 6 days. But in this case we had to wait two days. We paid per night at the hotel in anticipation of the first day of the waiting vyezda.V day drove to the waterfall, the evening was able to see Kilimanjaro. The second day we alone walk on the city of Arusha.
And the guide-driver, and povar- great guys. During the trip, they were attentive, took care of us.
We received from the Safari a lot of positive emotions! Adrenaline sometimes rolls over! Camp in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro no fence in the open nature! And at night sometimes lions, hyenas and elephants go !!! People remember it! Stock up on "nocturnal vyzami".
Breakfasts and dinners were tasty, depleted rations. We did not go hungry. 1.5 liter of water for each given day.
Mike helped us in buying tickets to Zanzibar.
Thank you very much for such a great trip!

Very good safari
Thanks Michael for this great time. We had the chance to view many animals. Maybe we would have like to see a bite more of the local life in villages (massai, etc) but it was great anyway! I definitely advise Nothern circuit for your safari.

Safari was performed as expected.
Good car, good driver/guide, good food.
Accomodation was public camp with tent, I don't like too much but was no bad surprise !

Very good 4 day group safari with Northern circuit adventure
Thanks to Denis - our Safari guide - we were able to enjoy 4 days of very excellent safari at 4 different national parks including a wonderful walking safari at Arusha National park. Denis really was a very good guide which made us a perfect safari. During our safari we stayed at Sunbright tented camps which was a good basis for the different parks we visited and our cook served us there with delicious meals. We really had the chance to experience a wonderful safari - although we only had a little budget available for our safari.
It was also very positive that we were picked-up at the airport the evening before the safari and had a shuttle service to our hotel in Arusha.
Besides the communication via e-mail with Michael from Northern Circuit Adventure was always good and all email inquiries were answered very fast. So I would recommend northern circuit adventure for safari.

Wonderful experience. Good and gracious people who cared about our experience, highly recommended!
Tarangire. Lake Manyara. Ngorongoro. The Serengeti. We saw so much in just the first two days at Tarangire and Manyara it could have been enough, but YOU must see the rest with Northern Circuit. They were well organized. The first day our driver was at the hotel early to pick us up on time. Before setting out we met briefly with the director who explained the entire 6 days so we knew what to expect. The vehicle was clean and equipped with 110 outlets so no worries about camera batteries running out, or cell phones :) Our driver and chef were very courteous and accommodating which makes these types of adventures so much better. Our driver was very knowledgeable and was able to answer our questions about the various species of birds and other animals, plants, etc. Also, he had a keen eye and was able to spot or find wild life to assure we got our fill of great nature and wild life. The campsites were well-kept and cozy, whether we were in a covered tent at the camping grounds, or in a bush tent in the Serengeti. They set everything up for us, and the food was remarkable. Fresh fruit, coffee, tea every morning along with a different meal every day. Hats off to our chef for a job well done. While there are many operators in and around Arusha and Moshi, Northern Circuit provided all the comforts we expected with very personal care, we didn't feel like a number or as if we were being rushed through. Because I'm very meticulous about making plans for such a big trip, I had been communicating with the director, Michael, up to a month before our trip. He was very responsive to my many email and text message inquiries, usually responding within 8-10 hours with a 9 hour time difference! I do admit, we contacted a few other operators, but Michael's responsiveness and level of details with our arrival in Nairobi, and advice guiding us through the process of getting to Arusha, convinced me that Northern Circuit was the right operator and we do not regret it one bit. I have members of my family wanting to safari now, so for sure we will use Northern Circuit in the future! Thank you guys for the wonderful time that will stay with us for ever. Best wishes, Martin and Ella.

Wonderfull 7 Days Safari with Northern Circuit Adventure
Hello all,
My girlfriend and I did a 7 days safari with Northern Circuit Adventure in late November 2015, we travel trough Tarangire N.P. , Lake Manyara N.P, 3 days at Serengeti N.P., Ngorongoro N.P and finally Arusha N.P.
Everything went as we planned with Mike form Northern Circuit Adventure, from the pick up at the airport to the drop off!
We did a group tour and we share our car with other 3 persons (an italian couple and a german guy).
We highly recommend this tour operator since it has his own car (a very good Toyota Land Rover) and it seems to us very well organized and very professional.
We were also very lucky to share our magnificent experience with a great guide/driver and exceptional person as it was Salomon, he is very patient, great observer and very knowledge when it comes down to animal behavior and tanzanian history and lifestyle!
We were also very happy about our chef...a great cooker, Moussa (I hope I write it properly) a big guy that cook delicious food, abundant portions and always with a contagious big smile!
So to conclude, I would highly recommend you to organize this lifetime experience with Northern Circuit Adventure, you won't regret it!

7 day private camping safari was great!
We did a private safari with Northern Circuit in December, visiting Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro with a stop at Oldupai Gorge. Our guide (Elias) and chef (Sweetbart) were fantastic. The meals were tasty and the chef proactively adjusted meals based on our preferences. Our guide had some good itineraries planned and he handled all the tough mudding with aplomb. He was also very knowledgeable about the animals and was very good at spotting and naming all the different birds we encountered as well - we ended up finding about 25 different kinds.
Our tour vehicle was a little older but perfectly functional (standard safari car with pop-up roof), and it had seat covers with nice seatback pockets for stowing gear during the game drives, and it also had an inverter with a universal power strip for charging whatever electronics needed charging - these made life much more pleasant on the trip.
Our only complaint was that the tent was a little old and musty. It didn't rain much while we were on the trip so we could leave the flaps open to air it out and it was fine, but if it had rained more it might have been problematic, and that's why I said 4 stars.
I would recommend this tour operator to friends and family.

Great safari, but sometimes a bit wet.
We were 6 people on a 4 day safari. We had a great guide and a great chef who were very helpful. We had a very good time on the gamerides and saw all the animals we had wanted to as well as the great migration. The only downside was that the camping equipment wasn't fully capable of handling the rainy season, so we had 1-2 wet nights. Our guide and chef were very helpful when this happened, but I still think it would be a good idea to upgrade the camping equipment to avoid this in the future.

Posted on Dec 22, 2015Hello Eva ,
Greetings from Northern Circuit Adventure Team and it was nice to have your safari feedback! We are very sorry to hear about the camping equipment's but as we know the time you were here it was short rainy season and we cannot control nature and when it comes the situation like this in the Serengeti it is a bit difficult even if you have a new equipment's but it all sort it out!
Thanks for your kind support and we assured our future clients that all of our camping equipment's are upgrading.
