Why this Package
Crater rhino prospects pair with dry‑season elephant gatherings in this 4-Day safari tour through Tarangire and Ngorongoro. Experience the beauty of Tanzania while staying at comfortable lodges that cater to families and groups seeking both adventure and relaxation. Begin your journey at Tarangire Simba Lodge, an upper mid-range accommodation located near Lake Burunge. This lodge features spacious rooms in chalet-style buildings, complete with en-suite bathrooms, mosquito nets, and verandas. Enjoy hearty buffet breakfasts, packed picnic lunches, and delightful dinners that blend international and Swahili cuisine, perfect for fueling your daily adventures.
Your safari continues to the Ngorongoro Crater, where you can witness the majesty of the Big 5 in one of the most unique ecosystems on the planet. After a day of exploration, retreat to the Country Lodge Karatu, a sister property known for its reliable mid-range service. Here, you’ll find cottage rooms with en-suite bathrooms and a lovely pool area to unwind after a day of wildlife viewing. Meals at Country Lodge include filling breakfasts, picnic lunches, and communal dinners, ensuring you have the energy for your next adventure.
With convenient access to both parks, you’ll be well-positioned to explore the rich wildlife of Tarangire National Park, famous for its elephants and iconic baobabs, as well as the stunning landscapes of the Ngorongoro Crater. This itinerary is ideal for first-time visitors looking to combine unforgettable wildlife experiences with comfortable accommodations.
Mix of mid-range and upper 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.
