3-Day Mid-Range Safari: Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro & Tarangire
Why this Package
A thrilling 3-Day safari tour through Lake Manyara, the Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire awaits you, featuring comfortable mid-range accommodations. Start your adventure at Embalakai Tented Camp, nestled in the acacia woodland near the Ngorongoro Crater rim, where you can enjoy hearty meals served in a communal setting, enhancing the authentic safari experience. With early breakfasts arranged to maximize your time in the crater, you’ll have the chance to witness the Big 5 in their natural habitat, including lions and leopards.
Following your stay at Embalakai, you’ll transition to Farmhouse Valley Adventure, located on the outskirts of Karatu. This lodge offers spacious chalet-style rooms with en-suite bathrooms and beautiful views of expansive gardens, creating a relaxing atmosphere after your daily explorations. The lodge prides itself on locally sourced produce, ensuring that your dining experience is both fresh and satisfying.
Access to these stunning parks is convenient, with Embalakai providing a mere 15-20 minute drive to the crater descent road, while Farmhouse Valley Adventure is just a short journey to the Ngorongoro gate. This itinerary is perfect for first-time safari-goers or those looking to combine their adventure with a trip to Zanzibar. Immerse yourself in the beauty of Tanzania's wildlife and landscapes, making memories that will last a lifetime.

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.
