3-Day Mid-Range Safari: Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro & Tarangire
Why this Package
In this compact 3-Day safari tour, explore the stunning landscapes of Lake Manyara, the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, and the iconic wildlife of Tarangire, all while enjoying the comforts of mid-range lodges. Photographers will appreciate the vibrant colors of the sunset over the baobabs and the serene reflections in the lakes.
Your stay at Burunge Tented Lodge offers a unique experience in the Burunge Wildlife Management Area, where you can unwind by the pool or on the sunset deck. Meals are a highlight, featuring hearty buffet breakfasts and picnic lunches, perfect for your full days of exploration. The tented rooms provide a cozy atmosphere with en-suite bathrooms and lovely views of the surrounding landscape.
At Tanzanice Farm Lodge, immerse yourself in a homely atmosphere with delicious home-cooked meals sourced from the farm. Enjoy the intimate setting with just a handful of en-suite rooms, each offering views across the coffee fields. The lodge's location allows for easy access to the Ngorongoro gate, ensuring you can still catch early predator activity in the crater.
This safari is ideal for first-time visitors to Tanzania, providing a well-rounded experience of diverse wildlife and stunning scenery. With multiple nights in each park, you'll have ample time to witness the rich biodiversity and perhaps even spot the famous tree-climbing lions of Lake Manyara.

Mix of budget and mid-range Tanzania Safari
Book with the Right Tour Operator
Each safari company has its own strengths — some specialize in luxury safaris, some in mid-range, and some in budget trips. Their expertise depends on years of experience in specific price categories, the quality of their guides and vehicles, and the lodge partnerships they’ve built over time. None of this is visible on websites or forums, which is why NMT connects you directly with the operators best suited to your safari tier.
