Big5 Tours is a mountain climbing and safari company whose main focus today is on Tanzania’s All Circuits.

The company provides four-wheel drive transportation, guides, Potters and cooks accommodation and ensures the safety of its clients while delivering an unparalleled experience.

It’s on the Northern Circuit that clients find spectacular natural wonders harboring an incredible diversity of plant and animal species. The company’s tours include the spell-binding Mt. Kilimanjaro, the highest free-standing mountain in Africa and the only one to sport snow year-round; exotic islands of the Zanzibar archipelago and some of the largest and finest game reserves on the continent. It is on Tanzania’s Northern Circuit that visitors will find the sweeping plains of the Serengeti, Tarangire, Ruaha and Selous National Parks as well as the lush walls of the Ngorongoro Crater, waves of pink flamingos on Lake Manyara and the turquoise waters of Mafia Island Marine Park.

There is plenty more to see and do than just these well-known Northern Tanzanian landmarks. For instance, it’s in this region that clients are most likely to see the famous Big Five group of animals. Buffalo, leopards, rhinoceros, lions and elephants all call this region home and many of them are concentrated in the national parks.

What’s more, the people and cultures of the region comprise an ethnic puzzle of social and linguistic groups engaged in a variety of lifestyles with the underlying themes of politeness, respect and modesty so highly valued in Tanzanian society.

It is on Tanzania’s Northern Circuit where visitors are most likely to see the famous Maasai, whose traditional culture centered on cattle, or the Bantu, who are known for their cultivation practices. Likewise, it is here that clients can glimpse the Hadzabe, one of the last hunter-gatherer societies left on earth.

Big5 Tours does more than just follow set itineraries around the region’s most popular attractions. It also allows for customization by clients. Need to watch the entire wildebeest migration from start to finish? Have a particular interest in bats? Came to Arusha and see the Geneva of Africa? With Big5 Tours, anything is possible.
