April is an ideal month for a Tanzania safari. The short rainy season transforms the landscape into lush greenery, attracting wildlife to water sources and creating vibrant scenery for photography. This 7-day Tanzania Midrange Safari in April covers the Northern Circuit, including Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park, Serengeti National Park, and Ngorongoro Crater. Private midrange lodges provide comfort while remaining close to wildlife areas. Game drives are scheduled for optimal viewing and photography during this green season, when animals gather near rivers and waterholes.
Your safari adventure begins with a drive from Arusha to Tarangire National Park. In April, this park is a stunning emerald paradise with lush green grass and tall, leafy Baobab trees. You will spend the afternoon exploring the park, which is famous for its massive families of elephants that love the fresh water of the Tarangire River. Because of the rain, the air is very clear, making it a perfect time to see colorful birds and giraffes grazing on the new green shoots. After a beautiful day in the wild, you will head to a comfortable midrange lodge for dinner and a peaceful night.

This region is famous for big cats like lions and leopards that love to rest on the big rocks known as "Kopjes." Your guide will use their expert eyes to find cheetahs hunting in the green grass and leopards hiding in the acacia trees. The bright green background makes every photo look amazing.

You can visit the hippo pools to see hundreds of hippos playing in the water or look for smaller, rare animals like the serval cat. April’s greenery provides a beautiful home for many migratory birds, making this a great day for birdwatching too. This peaceful day gives you a deep connection to the African wilderness before we leave the open plains.

After a final look at the majestic Serengeti, we begin our journey toward the Ngorongoro highlands. The drive takes you up into the cool, misty mountains where the trees are thick and green. We will stop at several viewpoints to see the clouds resting inside the huge volcanic crater. You will spend the night at a midrange lodge on the crater rim, where you can enjoy the cozy atmosphere and the unique view of the forest.

The lake is often full of pink flamingos, and you will see many lions and buffaloes in a very small area.
