5-Day Mid-Range Serengeti Tour with Africa Safari Ikoma
Why this Package
If you’ve done the north, this 5-day safari tour shifts focus to the Central Serengeti, West Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater while enjoying the comforts of a mid-range lodge. Begin your adventure with a flight from Arusha to the Serengeti, where you'll experience the thrill of wildlife sightings in one of the world’s most renowned national parks. The Africa Safari Serengeti Ikoma offers a cozy lodge-style camp on the border of the Western Serengeti, providing hearty meals and comfortable accommodations.
At Ikoma, you’ll enjoy buffet breakfasts, picnic lunches for your game drives, and delicious dinners that feature both international and Swahili flavors. The lodge features thatched safari rooms and tents equipped with en-suite bathrooms, mosquito nets, and private verandas, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploration. With access to night drives and walking safaris, this lodge offers unique experiences not available inside the Serengeti National Park.
After your time in the Serengeti, you’ll head to Ngorongoro, where Embalakai Tented Camp awaits. Nestled in acacia woodland near the crater rim, this camp provides an intimate bush experience with quick access to the crater’s descent road. Enjoy full-board meals served in the mess tent, including early breakfasts to maximize your game-viewing time. Each safari tent is designed for comfort, featuring en-suite bathrooms and private verandas that overlook the forest.
With a combination of stunning landscapes and abundant wildlife, this itinerary is ideal for both first-time safari-goers and those returning for more. Experience the thrill of seeing the Big 5 in the Ngorongoro Crater and the majestic wildlife of the Serengeti, making this journey unforgettable.

Book with the Right Tour Operator
