4-Day Mid-Range Ngorongoro and Serengeti Safari with Embalakai Camp
Why this Package
A short circuit with outsized returns: embark on a 4-day safari through the Central Serengeti and Ngorongoro, enjoying the comforts of a mid-range tented camp. This adventure is perfect for first-time visitors eager to experience the stunning landscapes and rich wildlife of Tanzania.
Your journey begins in the Central Serengeti, where you'll stay at Embalakai Tented Camp. This camp offers a rustic bush atmosphere, ideally located near the Seronera Valley, ensuring excellent opportunities for predator sightings during dawn and dusk game drives. Meals here are hearty and simple, featuring early teas, picnic breakfasts, and communal dinners that foster a sense of camaraderie among guests.
After your time in the Serengeti, you'll head to the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage site renowned for its diverse wildlife, including the Big Five. Staying at Tanzanice Farm Lodge, a charming family-run property, you can enjoy home-cooked meals made from ingredients sourced right from the farm. The intimate atmosphere and personal hosting make it a favorite for those seeking warmth and authenticity.
Access to both parks is convenient: from Embalakai, the Seronera Airstrip is just a short drive away, while Tanzanice Farm Lodge is ideally located for exploring the crater, with a drive to the gate taking about 25–30 minutes. This allows you to maximize your wildlife experiences without the stress of long travel times.
Whether you're combining this safari with a trek up Mount Kilimanjaro or a beach escape to Zanzibar, this tour promises unforgettable memories amidst Tanzania's breathtaking landscapes.

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.
