Why this package
Caldera to kopjes to river country—this 4-day safari tour takes you through the Central Serengeti, North Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. Experience the thrill of wildlife encounters while enjoying the comforts of mid-range accommodations. Your journey begins in Arusha, where you will embark on a fly-in safari, allowing you to maximize your time in these iconic parks.
Your first stop is the Embalakai Tented Camp, nestled in the heart of the Central Serengeti. This mid-range tented camp offers a rustic bush atmosphere, perfect for those seeking an authentic safari experience. With simple yet hearty meals, including picnic breakfasts and communal dinners, you'll savor the flavors of the region while sharing stories with fellow travelers.
The Meru-style tents at Embalakai provide cozy beds, en-suite bathrooms, and verandas with camp chairs, allowing you to unwind after a day of exploration. The camp's location near the Seronera Valley ensures excellent opportunities for predator sightings during dawn and dusk game drives. Access to the camp is convenient, with a short transfer from the Seronera Airstrip.
Next, you'll venture to the North Serengeti, where the landscape transforms into a stunning river country, ideal for spotting the Great Migration and its dramatic river crossings. Finally, your safari culminates in the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its rich biodiversity and breathtaking views. Although staying in Karatu at the Tanzanice Farm Lodge, you will enjoy hearty home-cooked meals with ingredients sourced directly from the farm, providing a unique and personal touch to your experience.
With just a short drive to the Ngorongoro gate, you can still witness the vibrant wildlife activity within the crater. The intimate atmosphere of Tanzanice Farm Lodge, with its rustic farmhouse style and personal hosting, makes it a favorite among travelers seeking warmth and authenticity. This combination of diverse landscapes, wildlife encounters, and comfortable lodgings makes this safari an unforgettable adventure.
Whether you're a first-time visitor or combining your safari with a trek up Mount Kilimanjaro or a beach escape to Zanzibar, this tour promises to deliver an enriching experience in Tanzania's most celebrated parks.
