4-Day Mid-Range Tanzania Safari with Farmhouse Valley Adventure
Why this Package
When rains green the south (Dec–Mar), embark on a 4-day safari that weaves through the stunning landscapes of Tarangire, the vibrant calving grounds of Ndutu Serengeti, and the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater. This journey offers a delightful mix of budget and mid-range accommodations, ensuring a comfortable yet adventurous experience.
Your adventure begins at Farmhouse Valley Adventure, a mid-range lodge located on the outskirts of Karatu. Here, you will enjoy full-board dining with locally sourced ingredients, including fresh produce from the lodge’s own gardens. The spacious chalet-style rooms come with en-suite bathrooms, mosquito nets, and verandas that overlook expansive gardens, providing a serene retreat after your daily explorations.
As you venture into Tarangire National Park, famous for its majestic elephants and iconic baobabs, you’ll have the chance to witness the park's rich wildlife. Following your time in Tarangire, you will head to Ndutu Wildlands Camp, a mid-range tented camp that offers a rustic yet immersive experience during the calving season. Here, hearty meals are served, including picnic breakfasts in the bush, allowing you to maximize your time observing the incredible wildlife activity.
Finally, your journey culminates in the Ngorongoro Crater, where you can experience one of the most remarkable wildlife spectacles on earth. The crater's unique ecosystem supports a diverse range of species, including the Big Five. Staying at Farmhouse Valley Adventure provides easy access to the crater, ensuring you can enjoy early morning game drives when predators are most active.
This 4-day itinerary is perfect for first-time visitors eager to experience the essence of a Tanzania safari, combining the thrill of wildlife encounters with the comfort of dependable accommodations. Don't miss the chance to witness the dramatic calving season in Ndutu, where the plains come alive with the sights and sounds of nature.
