Trip summary
Origin, our star route
In this itinerary we propose a trip away from the most frequented roads to discover the wonders of Tanzania, those that are forgotten by most visitors who rush to see only the most famous parks.
A 4×4 route is a circular route in which we will enjoy incredible landscapes, at the same time we will give a cultural dimension to the trip knowing the Maasai culture. In addition, it is an itinerary designed to take stock of the kilometers of car, outdoor activities and hours of rest.
What makes it different? We have made sure to design a route that combines very remote and infrequent areas such as Lake Natron, as well as the most famous parks on the continent such as Serengeti and Ngorongoro.
