5-Day Luxury Ngorongoro and Serengeti Safari with Ole Serai
Why this Package
Crater Big 5, kopje lions and west-side thickets—this 5-day safari tour takes you through the stunning landscapes of the Central Serengeti, West Serengeti, and the iconic Ngorongoro Crater. Experience the thrill of wildlife viewing while staying in a mix of mid-range and luxury accommodations, ensuring comfort and adventure in equal measure.
Your journey begins in Zanzibar, where you’ll fly into the heart of the Serengeti. Spend your first night at Ole Serai Luxury Camp – Turner Springs, a refined tented camp nestled in a quieter section of the Central Serengeti. Here, you’ll enjoy buffet breakfasts, picnic lunches, and plated dinners featuring a delightful mix of international and Swahili-inspired dishes. The polished canvas tents offer hardwood floors, en-suite bathrooms, and private verandas, providing a luxurious retreat after exhilarating game drives.
On your second day, immerse yourself in the wildlife-rich areas of the Serengeti, where you can witness the Great Migration and spot the Big Five. After an unforgettable experience, you’ll travel to the Ngorongoro Crater for your next stay at Ang’ata Tented Camp Ngorongoro. This mid-range camp is perfectly positioned on the rim of the crater, allowing for early access to the wildlife below. Enjoy hearty meals served in the mess tent and share stories around the campfire in a warm, communal atmosphere.
With 5 days dedicated to exploring these remarkable parks, you’ll have ample time to appreciate the breathtaking landscapes and diverse wildlife. The combination of intimacy at Ang’ata and the polished comfort at Ole Serai ensures a well-rounded safari experience that caters to both first-time travelers and seasoned safari-goers.

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.
