Best wild world experience
We spent more than one month looking for THE safari we wanted and finally we found Northern Circuit Adventure on TripAdvisor.
Michael was responding very fast, he was very professional and nice. He is very flexible and has arranged the safari depending of what we wanted. Plus, as we had compared different offers from various companies, we strongly believe Northern Circuit gave us the best value for the money spent.
The guide and the cook were very nice and friendly. We spent one of our best experience in the wild world.
The only downturn we encounter was not having binoculars in the car as expected but we believe the team just forgot to include them for the journey.
We recommend without hesitation.

Professional, knowledgeable, experienced, dedicated, caring, excellent safe driver and guide,
Extremely reliable and client oriented safari. We traveled as a family and had an outstanding experience. Everything was as expected or beyond expectations. Our driver and guide, Elias, was professional, knowledgeable, experienced, dedicated, caring, and not intrusive. Spending 5 days with him was a genuine pleasure. Highly recommended organization.

An Unbelievable Experience From Start To Finish!
From the very first message I sent to Mike, I was greeted with such professionalism and confidence that Northen Circuit Adventures would be able to make my safari experience the best to date and I wasn't left disappointed. Although I may have changed the number of people attending a good three or four times, Mike was able to address our request immediately by providing costings, requirements and equipment where needed. Planning the safari trip was so much easier having Mike on the other side making sure we got exactly what we wanted.
The safari itself couldn't have gone any better. We were extremely lucky with everything that we saw. A massive thank you to our driver and tour guide Ellias who drove for hours everyday on quite rough terrain and not only made sure we saw every animal but managed to get us as close as two metres away from animals such as elephants, lions, cheetahs and leopards the one animal I had hoped and asked to make sure we see to complete my big five on safari. Alongside this, his knowledge of and ability to spot the animals were incredible. We definitely learnt a thing or two about every animal we saw.
Our tour chef, Sweetbat, was amazing too. He spent hours every day and night preparing fantastic dishes for us three times a day. We very quickly learnt why his nickname was 'flavours' as the food he prepared was unbelievable considering the facilities and equipment he had on the various camp sites we stayed at. There wasn't one thing wrong with any of the food and not once did we feel there wasn't enough to go around us all. We were trying to persuade him to come back home with us his food was that good.
As for the camp sites, we were pleasantly surprised with the facilities we had. The tents and bedding provided were very comfortable and much better than what we were expecting especially when in the middle if the Serengeti. Toilet and showering facilities were also better than what we were expecting especially as it was the first time camping for some of us. Being able to listen to the hyenas and wildebeest as we try to sleep was an amazing experience.
Overall, this was a fantastic trip which was certainly made better by experience of Mike, Ellias and Sweetbat. I would not hesitate in using this company again and will certainly be recommending them to friends and family looking to go on safari in Tanzania.
Thanks again for an amazing experience.

Unforgettable safari with Northern Circuit Adventure
We (a middle-aged Polish couple) have just come back from our unforgettable holidays in Tanzania, one week on a safari in the Northern Circuit area and one week at Jambiani in Zanzibar. We searched www.safaribookings.com for a safari operators and out of many offers which we had studied we decided to choose Northern Circuit Adventure from Arusha, managed by Michael Ndallo. From the very first moment we felt Michael would be our final choice. His friendly attitude, enthusiasm and immediate responses to our enquiries were irresistable. What we liked was a 25% prepayment compared to 30-40% demanded by other operators. All documentation, itinerary, receipts and confirmations were first class. When we finally arrived in Arusha, on a bus from Nairobi, Michael was there waiting for us, all smiles. We decided to go on a 4 nights/5 days low budget camping safari to Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We received what we had expected and even more. Accommodation at Lilac Campsite in a tent with shower/WC was a real surprise. We have no words to enough praise Said, our driver guide. He is a joyful, friendly man with a terrific knowledge and experience. Despite wearing glasses when driving he has eagle's eyes and can spot animals half-hidden in grass from a distance. He can explain all differences between one species of antelope and another. He was so helpful skillfully maneuvering the car so that we could take best pictures. Thanks to his initiative and perfect sight we could see even a leopard (from a distance but nevertheless..). Thank you Said! And special thanks to our cook Sweetbart who in desperately basic conditions could prepare wonderful meals, plentiful and tasty. Lunch boxes always contained more food than we could eat at once. All in all we do not regret that we have chosen Northern Circuit Adventure. They are a trustworthy, reliable, professional team who know their job. We will definitely recommend them among our kith and kin who might show interest in going on a safari in Tanzania.
amazing 5-day safari
We loved the 5 days camping safari with Thomas - our guide. We spent 3 days in Serengeti, 1 in Ngorongoro Crater and 1 in Lake Manyara. We saw all of the Big 5 and many more and hadn't expected it to be so unbelievable amazing! All was very good organized, delicious food, good camping gear and excellent company.

Great safari with helpful staff
We went on a safari for two days to lake manyara and ngorongoro. We were a bit dissatisfied with manyara, but ngorongoro was great! Next time we will go to Serengeti.
Northern circuit and Michael which we had contact with were great in arranging the safari for us with a really good price together with four other people.
Definitely recommend to everyone!

Excellent experience!
I had a great experience with Northern Circuit Adventures. From beginning to end, Michael, Elias and Musa were professional, knowledgeable and fun. I did a group-join six-day camping tour to Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro and had a fantastic time. There was so much to see, so much to learn and it was the experience of a lifetime. Highly recommended!
