Guide's Note
George Mushi
Professional Tanzania Safari Guide
"The northern circuit is where I take guests who want to understand Tanzania fully. Every park in this circuit tells a different story — Tarangire is ancient and dramatic, Ngorongoro is like looking back in time, and the Serengeti is pure freedom. I time our game drives carefully to get the best light and the quietest moments."
