3-Day Upper Mid-Range Safari: Central Serengeti & Ngorongoro with Tloma Lodge
Why this Package
Experience the breathtaking beauty of Central Serengeti and the iconic Ngorongoro Crater on this 3-Day safari tour, designed to capture the magic of both locations during the most enchanting hours of the day. Crater dawns and Serengeti sunsets await you, providing a perfect backdrop for unforgettable wildlife encounters.
Your adventure begins at the Signature Serengeti Tented Safari Camp, a charming seasonal camp nestled in the heart of the Serengeti. Here, you’ll enjoy hearty meals, including picnic breakfasts for early game drives and communal dinners that foster a sense of camaraderie among guests. The Meru-style tents offer a comfortable retreat, complete with en-suite bathrooms and private verandas, allowing you to unwind while soaking in the stunning surroundings.
After your time in the Serengeti, you’ll transition to Tloma Lodge, a delightful mid-range option situated on the edge of a coffee plantation. This lodge provides a peaceful atmosphere with beautifully landscaped gardens, perfect for relaxation after a day of exploration. The emphasis on farm-to-table dining means you’ll savor fresh, flavorful meals, with much of the produce sourced from the lodge's own gardens.
With only a short drive to the Ngorongoro Crater, you can maximize your time in this UNESCO World Heritage Site, known for its rich wildlife and stunning landscapes. The accessibility of both lodges ensures that you can easily immerse yourself in the diverse ecosystems of Tanzania.
Whether you’re a first-time visitor or combining this journey with a trek up Kilimanjaro or a beach escape to Zanzibar, this safari offers a perfect blend of adventure and comfort.
Mix of mid-range and upper 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.
