5-Day Mid-Range Serengeti Safari with Kati Kati Camp

A composed circuit in 5 days through Central Serengeti, West Serengeti, and Ngorongoro offers an unforgettable experience for both first-time and repeat safari-goers. Begin your adventure with a stay at Ikumbi Lodge, an affordable base located in Karatu, where you can enjoy hearty meals and comfortable rooms designed for relaxation after a day of exploration. The lodge features a selection of modern rooms with private bathrooms and beautiful views of lush gardens, ensuring a restful stay.

Each morning, you’ll embark on an early drive to the Ngorongoro Crater, just a short distance away, where you can witness the breathtaking landscape and diverse wildlife, including the Big Five. After your crater experience, you’ll head to the Central Serengeti, where Kati Kati Tented Camp awaits. This mid-range camp provides simple yet comfortable Meru-style tents, allowing you to immerse yourself in the natural surroundings while enjoying early access to game drives.

At Kati Kati, meals are hearty and communal, featuring local dishes that fuel your adventures. The camp's strategic location in Seronera ensures you are among the first to encounter the rich wildlife of the Serengeti, including predators and migratory herds. As you explore the vast plains, you’ll appreciate the camp’s focus on functionality and comfort.

Finally, your journey concludes with a visit to the West Serengeti, where you can soak in the stunning landscapes and perhaps catch a glimpse of the Great Migration, depending on the season. This 5-day safari not only offers a diverse range of experiences but also allows for deeper connections with Tanzania's remarkable wildlife.

For those looking to combine their safari with a beach getaway, consider extending your trip to the beautiful shores of Zanzibar. This itinerary is perfect for travelers seeking adventure, wildlife encounters, and the chance to create lasting memories.
