Why this Package
For photographers, this 5-day safari tour delivers stunning landscapes across the Central Serengeti, West Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater, offering diverse backdrops for unforgettable wildlife photography. Staying at Into Wild Africa Tented Camp in the Central Serengeti, you can enjoy a stylish yet authentic experience that balances comfort with eco-consciousness. This upper mid-range camp is perfect for couples and small groups seeking intimate safari adventures, with a prime location that ensures excellent big cat sightings throughout the year.
Your culinary experience includes early teas and coffees, picnic breakfasts, and plated dinners that feature a delightful mix of international and Swahili flavors. After a day of thrilling game drives, gather around the fire pit for sundowners and share stories under the stars.
The camp offers large canvas tents equipped with king or twin beds, en-suite bathrooms, and private verandas, all designed with an eco-friendly approach.

With the Seronera Airstrip just a short 15-25 minute drive away, your journey begins smoothly, allowing you to focus on the incredible wildlife and landscapes of the Serengeti.
On your way to Ngorongoro, you will stay at KanKari Lodge, a mid-range property located on the outskirts of Karatu. This lodge offers a peaceful garden retreat, perfect for unwinding after your safari excursions. With a smaller, more personal atmosphere than larger lodges, KanKari provides a homely experience, featuring en-suite rooms with mosquito nets and private verandas. Meals are served on a full-board basis, with early breakfasts and picnic lunches available for your safari days. The friendly staff ensures a warm welcome, making your stay memorable.
Access to the Ngorongoro Crater is conveniently located about 25-30 minutes away, allowing for early morning descents into the crater for prime wildlife viewing. This combination of lodges offers a unique opportunity for both first-time safari-goers and seasoned travelers looking to explore the beauty of Tanzania's parks.
Experience the thrill of the Ngorongoro Crater and the vastness of the Serengeti while enjoying the comforts of well-appointed lodges that enhance your safari journey.
