Why this Package
Two stops, high payoff in 4-Day safari tour: experience the stunning landscapes of Tarangire and the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater. This journey is perfect for first-time visitors eager to witness the iconic elephants and baobab trees of Tarangire, alongside the rich wildlife of Ngorongoro.
Your adventure begins at Sangaiwe Tented Lodge, located just outside Tarangire National Park.

After your night in Tarangire, you’ll head to the Tanzanice Farm Lodge on the outskirts of Karatu. This family-run property provides a homely atmosphere, where you can enjoy meals made with ingredients sourced directly from the farm. Dining here is a highlight, with communal dinners that foster a sense of community among guests.
With just a short drive to the Ngorongoro gate, you’ll have access to the crater in the early morning, allowing you to witness the rich wildlife activity, including potential Big 5 sightings. This combination of locations and accommodations ensures a well-rounded experience, allowing you to appreciate the diverse ecosystems of Tanzania.
Whether you’re looking to combine this safari with a trek up Mount Kilimanjaro or a relaxing stay on the beaches of Zanzibar, this 4-day tour offers a perfect balance of adventure and comfort.
Mix of budget and mid-range 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.
