Why Choose a September Safari From Moshi?

Best Time to Visit

September falls in the dry season, making it ideal for safaris. The lack of rain means animals gather around water sources, and roads are easier to navigate.

Common routes from Moshi include:

  • Moshi to Serengeti via Ngorongoro Crater
  • Moshi to Tarangire National Park
  • Moshi to Lake Manyara

Great Northern Circuit Experience
David R. · Canada · 13 May 2026

The 6 Days Northern Circuit Safari was a fantastic way to see Tanzania's highlights. We explored Tarangire, Lake Manyara, the Ngorongoro Crater, and a bit of Serengeti. The wildlife viewing was excellent throughout, especially in the Crater. Our guide was very skilled at spotting animals. While everything was well-organized, we felt the pace could have been a little more relaxed in some areas. Still, a very worthwhile trip for seeing so much diverse wildlife. Looking forward to booking again for 2026!

Great Wildlife, but accommodation could be better
Sarah L. · Australia · 20 Jun 2026

Our 3 Days in Tarangire National Park were filled with incredible sights. We saw so many elephants, including large family groups, and the baobab trees are truly majestic. The park is beautiful and the wildlife viewing was top-notch. Our guide was very good at spotting animals and navigating the park. However, the lodge we stayed at for the two nights was a bit basic and not quite what we expected for the price. While the wildlife experience was 5-star, the lodging brought the overall rating down slightly. We enjoyed the park itself immensely and would recommend it, but perhaps look into different accommodation options if booking a similar package.

Fascinating Serval Encounter!
Ahmed F. · UAE · 13 Jun 2026

The 1 Day Serval Wildlife Experience from Arusha was surprisingly rewarding. We didn't expect to see as much as we did in just one day. Our guide had an incredible eye for spotting wildlife, and we were lucky enough to observe a serval in its natural habitat, along with many other smaller creatures and birds. It felt more intimate than a large park safari. A unique and highly recommended experience.

Incredible Wildlife Encounters in Tarangire & Ngorongoro!
Sarah K. · USA · 30 Mar 2026

Our 3-day safari with Top Guide Adventures was absolutely phenomenal. Tarangire National Park amazed us with its massive elephant herds and iconic baobab trees. The sheer concentration of wildlife was breathtaking. Ngorongoro Crater offered a completely different, yet equally stunning, experience. We spotted lions, rhinos, buffaloes, and countless other animals in a relatively compact area. Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable, spotting animals we would have surely missed. The accommodation was comfortable and well-located. We felt this was the perfect introduction to Tanzania's wonders, and we're already planning a return trip for 2026. Highly recommended!
