Women-Only Safari
Solo, friends, or a women’s group
A northern safari for women only, as a private trip or a small group, with a female guide when we have one and rooms we have already checked.
Women travelling together or solo From $395 pp / night From $1,975 pp (5 nights)
The story of this trip
The parks do not change because the vehicle is women-only. Tarangire, the crater and a night in the Serengeti are still the same country. What changes is the crew and the rooms: a female guide or driver when one is free on your dates, and room placement that we have discussed with the lodge. Your evenings can include a cooperative visit, a session on the lodge’s yoga deck if it has one, or nothing at all. Solo travellers get a private 4×4, not a seat in a mixed truck. If no female guide is rostered, we tell you and you decide.
What this safari is for
- A private vehicle, or a women-only group we have confirmed
- Female guide or driver on request, when available
- Lodge rooms checked for how they place women guests
- An optional cooperative morning (see the craft tour)
- A 24-hour desk number, like every MiGo booking

A sample northern week
This is a working route. We confirm the camps and pace on your quote, within 24 hours.
Arrive in Arusha
You meet your guide. There is no park visit today. If you like, you can use a rest day for a morning at a craft cooperative, which we quote separately.
Tarangire
It is your vehicle and your pace. You can enjoy a sundowner if the camp allows it.
The highlands
You sleep in Karatu or on the rim. We add a cooperative or farm visit only if you ask. We do not treat a boma as entertainment.
Ngorongoro Crater
You see lion, buffalo and, with a chance, black rhino. If the light and the road allow, you continue into the Serengeti.
Serengeti
You see the resident big cats. A balloon flight costs extra and means a 04:30 start. In the evening you can spend time at camp with a story, a spa treatment or sleep, according to what the lodge actually offers.
Serengeti morning, then return or fly to Zanzibar
Beach nights are quoted separately. We will not promise a connection that does not exist.

- Laundry
- A guarantee of a female guide on every date
- Spa or yoga unless the lodge confirms it

When to travel
June to October and January to February. Group departures need a minimum number of guests, which we state on your quote. A woman travelling alone can still take a private vehicle.
Why this route
Six days is a sample. You can pair it with the craft tour or a Zanzibar beach week. Day trips are available if you only have a night in Arusha.
