4-Day Upper Mid-Range Serengeti Tour with Arukore Simba Camp
Why this Package
Short but potent, this 4-Day safari tour pairs daily predator traffic with the Ndutu and Central Serengeti areas during the calving season. Experience the thrill of witnessing the Great Wildebeest Migration and the dramatic predator-prey interactions that unfold in these iconic landscapes. Your adventure begins with a fly-in from Zanzibar, allowing you to maximize your time in the heart of the Serengeti.
During your stay, you'll enjoy the comforts of Arukore Simba Camp, an upper mid-range tented lodge located in the Central Serengeti. This camp is designed for travelers seeking a blend of comfort and rustic charm, making it perfect for couples and small groups. Meals at the camp include early tea or coffee, picnic breakfasts, and plated three-course dinners that combine local flavors with international staples.
After one night at Arukore Simba Camp, you’ll head to Tanzania Bush Camps Ndutu, a mid-range seasonal camp that opens its doors during the calving season. Here, you will be right at the heart of the action, with simple yet hearty meals and Meru-style tents that provide a cozy retreat after a day of exploration. The camp's location allows for unique off-road permits, offering you close-up views of predator hunts, a rare opportunity in much of the Serengeti National Park.
Access to both camps is convenient, with the Seronera Airstrip just a short drive away from Arukore Simba Camp and Ndutu Airstrip within easy reach of Tanzania Bush Camps Ndutu. This seamless travel experience ensures you spend more time enjoying the breathtaking landscapes and wildlife of the Serengeti.
With a perfect mix of adventure and comfort, this safari is ideal for first-time visitors looking to immerse themselves in the wonders of Tanzania's wildlife. Don't miss the chance to witness the spectacular calving season and the vibrant life that thrives in these remarkable parks.
