4-Day Mid-Range Serengeti Tour with Simba Lodge
Why this Package
Experience the thrill of a 4-day safari adventure through the Central Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater, two iconic destinations teeming with wildlife. This tour combines the comfort of mid-range lodgings with the excitement of exploring these rich ecosystems. Start your journey in Arusha and immerse yourself in the breathtaking landscapes and diverse wildlife.
Your stay at Serengeti Simba Lodge offers a solid base in the heart of the Serengeti, providing easy access to the famous Seronera Valley, where you can witness the majestic big cats in their natural habitat. The lodge features thatched stone cottages equipped with en-suite bathrooms, ensuring a comfortable retreat after a day of adventure. Meals are served buffet-style, featuring hearty local and international dishes, perfect for refueling after your game drives.
On your second night, you’ll enjoy the unique experience of the Ngorongoro Crater, renowned for its stunning landscapes and abundant wildlife. The crater is a UNESCO World Heritage site, offering the chance to see the Big Five in one location. While staying at the Foresight Eco Lodge & Safari, you’ll appreciate their commitment to sustainability and community-focused practices. The cozy accommodations include spacious tents and cottages, all designed with eco-friendly materials.
Dining at Foresight is a delightful experience, with home-cooked meals featuring local Tanzanian staples. Breakfasts are prepared early for your safari departures, and picnic lunches are available for your days exploring the crater or Lake Manyara. The peaceful environment and thoughtful touches, like hot water bottles for cooler nights, create a warm and inviting atmosphere.
With this itinerary, you’ll have ample time to explore the diverse wildlife and stunning landscapes of both parks, making it an ideal choice for first-time visitors or those looking to combine their safari with a trip to Zanzibar or a climb of Mount Kilimanjaro. Don’t miss the opportunity to witness the incredible wildlife of Tanzania on this unforgettable journey!

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.
