Why this Package
Crater dawns and Serengeti sunsets—4-Day safari tour arranged for golden hours at both the Central Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Experience the thrill of wildlife encounters while enjoying the comforts of upper mid-range accommodations. Begin your adventure with a flight from Zanzibar, landing in the heart of the Serengeti, where you'll stay at TAASA Lodge. Nestled by Klein’s Gate, this lodge offers a unique experience with fewer vehicles and stunning landscapes, perfect for those seeking a more intimate connection with nature.
At TAASA Lodge, indulge in upscale bush cuisine with flexible dining options, including bush breakfasts and sundowner dinners that enhance your safari experience. The large tented suites, set on raised decks, provide lounge areas and verandas overlooking the breathtaking Lobo Valley, ensuring a comfortable retreat after a day of exploration.
Your journey continues to the Ngorongoro Coffee Lodge, where you can unwind among Karatu’s lush coffee estates.

With a focus on maximizing your wildlife viewing opportunities, this itinerary allows you to explore both parks thoroughly. The accessibility of the Ngorongoro Gate, just a short drive from your lodge, makes it easy to experience the stunning landscapes and diverse wildlife of the Ngorongoro Crater, known for its Big 5 sightings. This tour is ideal for first-time visitors looking to combine the beauty of Zanzibar with unforgettable safari adventures.
For those interested in the Great Migration, the Central Serengeti is a prime location to witness this spectacular event, where you can see herds of wildebeest and zebras traversing the plains. Don't miss the chance to immerse yourself in the wonders of Tanzania's wildlife and landscapes.

Book with the Right Tour Operator

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.
