Why this package

A three-part 5-Day safari tour that explores the stunning landscapes of Central Serengeti, West Serengeti, and the remarkable Ngorongoro Crater while enjoying the comforts of mid-range accommodations. This itinerary is perfect for both first-time visitors and seasoned safari-goers, providing a balanced experience of wildlife viewing and relaxation.

Your journey begins at Karatu Simba Lodge, a rustic eco-styled lodge located on the outskirts of Karatu. Set among farmland and overlooking rolling hills, it offers a tranquil atmosphere ideal for unwinding after your travels. The lodge features about 20 cottages with canvas fronts and stone bases, providing a unique “tent-chalet hybrid” experience. Guests can enjoy hearty meals that blend international and Tanzanian cuisine, served in a communal dining hall, while the large swimming pool invites relaxation amidst nature.

As you venture into the Central Serengeti, you will stay at Tukaone Weavers Camp, a mid-range tented camp designed for comfort and practicality. This camp is strategically located for easy access to the wildlife-rich Seronera area, ensuring shorter transfer times to early morning game drives. The Meru-style canvas tents come equipped with en-suite bathrooms, offering essential amenities for a comfortable stay. Meals are simple yet filling, with picnic breakfasts and communal dinners that foster a sense of camaraderie among guests.

With a mix of game drives across diverse landscapes, you’ll have the opportunity to witness the incredible wildlife of the Serengeti, including the majestic lions and other members of the Big Five. The Ngorongoro Crater is also on your itinerary, where you can experience breathtaking views and unique wildlife encounters.

This 5-day safari not only allows for ample wildlife viewing but also provides a chance to relax and soak in the natural beauty of Tanzania. Whether you're a first-timer or a returning visitor, this tour offers a well-rounded experience that highlights the best of Tanzania's iconic parks.
