Keep the driving purposeful: embark on a 4-day safari through Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Central Serengeti while enjoying the comforts of a mix of mid-range and luxury lodges. This journey is designed for those seeking a rich wildlife experience combined with the thrill of adventure.

Your adventure begins at Hippo Trails Camp in the Central Serengeti, where you’ll find a cozy mid-range tented camp nestled near the Seronera River Valley. This prime location offers excellent opportunities to spot big cats and hippos during your game drives. Enjoy hearty meals, including early teas and picnic breakfasts, while staying in comfortable Meru-style tents equipped with en-suite bathrooms and rustic charm. The camp's accessibility to the Seronera Airstrip ensures you can maximize your time in the park.

Next, you’ll head to the Lemala Ngorongoro Tented Camp, a favorite among photographers for its intimate atmosphere and early access to the crater. Here, canvas tents on timber decks provide a cozy retreat after exhilarating days of wildlife viewing. The chef-led camp cuisine ensures delightful dining experiences, whether under the stars or in the mess tent. With just a short descent to the crater floor, you’ll be perfectly positioned to witness the early morning activity of the Big 5.

Your final stop is the luxurious Tarangire Kuro Treetops Lodge, where treehouse-style chalets offer stunning views and direct access to one of the park’s best game-viewing areas. Indulge in upscale dining with plated breakfasts and multi-course dinners, all while enjoying the unique experience of elephants feeding beneath your deck. This lodge combines comfort and style, making it the perfect ending to your safari.

With multiple nights in each park, you’ll have ample time to immerse yourself in the breathtaking landscapes and diverse wildlife of Tanzania. This itinerary is ideal for first-time safari-goers or those looking to combine their adventure with a relaxing stay in Zanzibar.
