4-Day Upper Mid-Range Serengeti Safari with Malaika Camp
Why this Package
A predator-first 4-Day safari tour: explore the North Serengeti and Central Serengeti while enjoying the comforts of an upper mid-range tented camp. This itinerary is perfect for those seeking a blend of adventure and comfort, with the added convenience of bush flights from Arusha.
Begin your journey at Malaika Seronera Luxury Camp, located in the heart of the Central Serengeti. This camp is renowned for its proximity to the Seronera Valley, providing exceptional opportunities for year-round predator sightings, including lions, leopards, and cheetahs. With stylish interiors and a family-friendly atmosphere, it offers a polished yet approachable experience.
Meals at Malaika include buffet breakfasts, picnic lunches, and plated three-course dinners, featuring a delightful mix of international and Swahili cuisine. Guests can unwind in large canvas tents equipped with hardwood floors, king or twin beds, and en-suite bathrooms with flush toilets and hot showers. Each tent also boasts a veranda with seating, perfect for enjoying the stunning views of the Serengeti.
Your adventure continues in the North Serengeti at Tanzania Bush Camps Kogatende, a mid-range seasonal camp that operates from July to October. This camp is strategically set up to follow the Great Migration, allowing you to witness the breathtaking river crossings without the luxury price tag. The rustic Meru-style tents provide a genuine canvas experience, complete with en-suite bathrooms and shared mess tent facilities.
Meals here are straightforward, featuring early teas, picnic breakfasts, packed lunches, and communal plated dinners, focusing on hearty safari staples. The camp's location near the Mara River ensures quick transfers to the crossings, maximizing your chances to see the iconic wildebeest migration.
With a mix of comfort and authenticity, this safari is ideal for first-time visitors or those looking to combine their adventure with a trip to Zanzibar or a climb of Mount Kilimanjaro. Experience the magic of the Serengeti, where every moment is filled with the thrill of wildlife encounters.
