Tanzania Safari (Optional Rwanda Gorilla Trekking)

Custom Luxury Land Package

January 15–24, 2027

Join Carey & Mark Kaspari on Global Track’s exclusive 9-night adventure showcasing the best of Tanzania, experiencing immersive safaris, guided game drives, bush walks, and unforgettable wildlife encounters in some of Africa’s most iconic landscapes! Begin in the lush foothills of Mount Meru in Arusha, then travel to elephant-rich Tarangire National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater, the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera, before continuing to the vast Serengeti, offering the greatest concentration of plains animals in Africa and the spectacular Great Migration. 

January falls within Tanzania’s short dry season, when roads are more accessible for game drives and wildlife gathers around water sources, making sightings easier. It is also the wildebeest calving season in the Southern Serengeti during the Great Migration, one of the best times to observe predators such as lions, cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas as they follow the newborn herds.

Extend your safari with a once in a lifetime Rwanda Gorilla Trekking adventure!
