4-Day Upper Mid-Range Tanzania Safari with Friends Serengeti
Why this Package
Short but well-rounded, this 4-Day safari tour delivers three different ecosystems: Tarangire, Central Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. Experience the diverse wildlife and stunning landscapes of Tanzania while enjoying the comforts of a mix of mid-range and luxury accommodations. Start your adventure in Tarangire National Park, known for its iconic baobabs and large elephant herds, where you’ll spend a night at the Friends Serengeti Tented Camp. This mid-range camp offers a rustic yet comfortable stay, with hearty meals including picnic breakfasts and communal dinners, all set within the predator-rich valleys of the Serengeti.
After Tarangire, you will journey to the Ngorongoro Farm House, located just outside Karatu. This spacious lodge, styled around a colonial coffee plantation, provides a delightful atmosphere with full-board dining, featuring fresh produce sourced from its own farm. The chalet-style rooms overlook beautiful gardens and come equipped with en-suite bathrooms, ensuring a comfortable stay.
Your final night will be spent at the Sanctuary Ngorongoro Crater Camp, where you’ll enjoy elegant tented hospitality just minutes from the crater rim. Here, you can indulge in refined dining experiences and relax in spacious canvas tents with luxurious amenities. This prime location allows you to be among the first vehicles on the crater floor at dawn, maximizing your chances of spotting the Big Five during your Ngorongoro Crater tour.
With a well-planned itinerary, you’ll have ample opportunities for game drives and wildlife viewing across these stunning parks. This safari is perfect for first-timers looking to experience the best of Tanzania’s natural beauty and wildlife diversity.
Mix of mid-range and luxury 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.
