3-Day Mid-Range Safari: Central Serengeti & Ngorongoro with Ngorongoro Farm House
Why this Package
Experience a balanced 3-Day safari tour that immerses you in the breathtaking landscapes of Central Serengeti and the iconic Ngorongoro Crater. Your adventure begins with a thrilling descent into the crater, followed by a day exploring the rich wildlife of the Serengeti, all while enjoying the comforts of a mid-range lodge.
Stay at the Ngorongoro Farm House, a spacious lodge set in a colonial coffee plantation just outside Karatu. Here, you will enjoy full-board dining with fresh produce sourced from the lodge’s own farm, ensuring hearty meals to fuel your days of exploration. The chalet-style rooms offer a cozy retreat, complete with en-suite bathrooms and private terraces overlooking lush gardens and coffee fields.
Access to the Ngorongoro Crater is convenient, with just a short drive to the entrance gate. This allows for early morning departures, maximizing your chances of witnessing the incredible wildlife that calls the crater home. After a day of game drives, return to the lodge for a relaxing evening by the pool or in the spacious main lodge area, where you can unwind and share stories of the day’s adventures.
In the Central Serengeti, you will stay at Tukaone Weavers Camp, a mid-range tented camp that serves as a practical base for wildlife-rich drives. The rustic charm of the camp complements the stunning surroundings, making it perfect for couples and small groups. Meals are hearty and communal, fostering a sense of camaraderie among guests.
This safari is ideal for first-time travelers or those looking to combine their adventure with a visit to Zanzibar or a trek up Mount Kilimanjaro. With two nights in the heart of Tanzania’s most famed parks, you’ll have ample opportunity to witness the remarkable wildlife and landscapes that define this region.
