A short circuit with outsized returns: experience the breathtaking landscapes of Central Serengeti and the iconic Ngorongoro Crater over four days, staying in the comfort of an upper mid-range tented lodge. The Arukore Simba Camp offers a unique blend of rustic charm and modern amenities, making it an ideal choice for couples and small groups seeking adventure without sacrificing comfort.

During your stay, enjoy delicious meals that include early tea or coffee, picnic breakfasts, packed lunches, and plated three-course dinners, all featuring local flavors alongside international favorites. The camp's canvas tents come equipped with king or twin beds, en-suite bathrooms, and private verandas, allowing you to unwind while taking in the stunning views.

Access to the camp is convenient, with a short drive from Seronera Airstrip, placing you right in the heart of the action. The central location ensures you're close to year-round predator activity and migration herds during transitional months, enhancing your safari experience. After your time in the Serengeti, you will transition to the Farmhouse Valley Adventure lodge, located on the outskirts of Karatu. This mid-range lodge provides a relaxed atmosphere with spacious chalet-style rooms, en-suite bathrooms, and beautiful garden views.

Dining at Farmhouse Valley Adventure is a delight, featuring locally sourced produce and a buffet-style dinner that caters to various tastes. Though it requires a bit more travel time to reach the Ngorongoro Crater, the lodge offers a comfortable base for your explorations, allowing you to descend into the crater at dawn for optimal wildlife viewing.

This safari is perfect for first-time visitors to Tanzania, especially those looking to combine their adventure with a beach getaway in Zanzibar or a trek up Mount Kilimanjaro. With a mix of wildlife, stunning landscapes, and comfortable accommodations, this tour promises an unforgettable experience.
