4-Day Upper Mid-Range Serengeti Tour with Nyikani Tented Camp
Why this Package
Split a compact 4-Day safari tour between the Central Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater for an enriching experience that balances wildlife encounters with comfortable accommodations. Your adventure begins at Nyikani Tented Camp Serengeti, a mid-range permanent tented camp nestled in the heart of the Central Serengeti. This location is ideal for spotting the region's famous predators, ensuring you enjoy reliable sightings year-round.
Meals at Nyikani are hearty and social, featuring early teas, picnic breakfasts, packed lunches, and communal dinners that foster a sense of camaraderie among guests. The canvas tents provide a cozy atmosphere with comfortable beds, en-suite bathrooms, and a mess tent for relaxation after a day of exploration.
After your time in the Serengeti, you’ll transition to the Ngorongoro Coffee Lodge, set among lush coffee estates in Karatu. This upper mid-range lodge offers generous cottages with fireplaces, verandas, and en-suite bathrooms, providing a refined yet comfortable retreat. Enjoy early hot and cold breakfasts, generous picnic lunches for your full-day drives, and plated dinners that highlight local produce alongside international staples.
Accessibility is seamless, with the Ngorongoro Gate just a short drive away, allowing for dawn departures that maximize your time in the crater. The lodge's warm and professional hosting ensures a welcoming atmosphere, perfect for couples and families seeking reliable amenities without the premium prices of crater-rim options.
As you watch the sunrise over the vast plains of the Serengeti, you’ll understand why this safari is a perfect blend of adventure and comfort. This itinerary is particularly appealing for first-time visitors or those looking to combine their safari experience with a trip to Zanzibar or a trek up Mount Kilimanjaro.
Mix of mid-range and upper mid-range 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.
