3-Day Upper Mid-Range Safari: Tarangire & Ngorongoro with Sanctuary Ngorongoro
Why this Package
On this captivating 3-Day safari, explore the stunning landscapes of Tarangire, the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, and the scenic shores of Lake Manyara, all while enjoying the refined comforts of a luxury tented camp. Your journey begins in Tarangire, known for its large elephant herds and iconic baobab trees, where you can immerse yourself in the vibrant wildlife.
At the Sanctuary Ngorongoro Crater Camp, you will experience elegant tented hospitality just minutes from the crater's edge. This prime location allows you to be among the first vehicles to descend into the crater at dawn, maximizing your opportunities to witness the incredible wildlife, including the elusive Big Five. The camp features spacious canvas tents with king beds, fine linens, and en-suite bathrooms, ensuring a comfortable retreat after a day of adventure.
Meals are a highlight here, with chef-led menus offering a delightful blend of local and international flavors. Enjoy early breakfasts to fuel your morning game drives, and unwind with unhurried dinners complemented by a curated wine list. The atmosphere is polished yet relaxed, making it perfect for couples or travelers seeking a touch of luxury amidst nature.
Access to the camp is convenient, with a short drive from Karatu and quick routes to both Tarangire and Lake Manyara. This itinerary not only provides ample opportunities for wildlife viewing but also allows for relaxation and reflection in the serene surroundings. Whether you're a first-time visitor or combining this adventure with a trek on Kilimanjaro or a beach escape to Zanzibar, this safari promises a memorable experience.
