4-Day Upper Mid-Range Serengeti Tour with Malaika Ndutu
Why this Package
A compact 4-Day safari tour that trades distance for depth, splitting time between Central Serengeti and Ndutu Serengeti. This journey offers a unique opportunity to witness the incredible wildlife dynamics during the calving season, when the plains come alive with newborns and their protective mothers. Start your adventure in Central Serengeti, where you’ll stay at Africa Safari Serengeti Ikoma, a mid-range lodge-style camp that provides hearty meals and comfortable accommodations. Enjoy buffet breakfasts and picnic lunches to fuel your daily game drives, while the spacious safari rooms and tents ensure a restful night under the stars.
After your stay in Central Serengeti, you'll head to Malaika Ndutu Luxury Camp, perfectly situated in the predator-rich Ndutu plains. This upper mid-range seasonal camp is designed for those seeking a polished yet affordable experience during one of Africa’s most spectacular wildlife events. Here, you can indulge in early teas and packed lunches that allow you to maximize your time tracking the herds. The spacious canvas tents come equipped with en-suite bathrooms and inviting verandas, perfect for unwinding after a day of adventure.
Both lodges offer easy access to key wildlife areas, enhancing your chances of encountering the great migration and the iconic Big Five. With the added benefit of bush flights from Arusha, this safari is ideal for first-timers or those looking to combine their adventure with a trip to Zanzibar or a climb up Mount Kilimanjaro.
Experience the thrill of the wild, the comfort of well-appointed lodges, and the breathtaking landscapes of the Serengeti on this unforgettable 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.
