Why this Package
Split a compact 4-Day safari tour between the Ngorongoro Crater and Central Serengeti for an immersive wildlife experience. Begin your adventure at Crater’s Edge, a luxury lodge perched on the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater, where breathtaking views and exclusive access to the crater floor enhance your game drives. Here, you can enjoy multi-course gourmet meals with local Swahili influences, all while soaking in the stunning sunrise views over the crater.
Your spacious suite features floor-to-ceiling windows, a private butler service, and a large en-suite bathroom, ensuring a comfortable retreat after a day of exploration. The lodge's proximity to the crater allows you to descend early, maximizing your chances of spotting the Big Five, including the elusive black rhino.
Next, venture into the Central Serengeti and stay at Jackals Lair Tented Camp, where you will be surrounded by the vibrant wildlife that thrives in this region. With its authentic canvas comfort and attentive hosting, this upper mid-range camp provides an intimate safari experience. Enjoy hearty meals, including picnic breakfasts and plated dinners, while relaxing in your Meru-style tent equipped with modern amenities.
Being in the heart of the Serengeti, you will have quick access to prime game viewing areas, where lions, leopards, and elephants are often spotted. This tour is perfect for first-time safari-goers looking to combine the beauty of Zanzibar with the thrill of Tanzania's wildlife. Experience the magic of the Ngorongoro Crater and the iconic landscapes of the Serengeti on this unforgettable journey.
Mix of upper mid-range and premium luxury Tanzania 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.
