5-Day Upper Mid-Range Serengeti Tour with TAASA Lodge
Why this Package
Balance your 5-Day safari tour between resident action, seasonal spectacle and a high-yield crater descent. Experience the wonders of the Central Serengeti, the breathtaking Ndutu during the calving season, and the iconic Ngorongoro Crater while enjoying a mix of mid-range and luxury accommodations.
Your adventure begins in Arusha, where you will embark on a fly-in safari, enhancing your experience with seamless travel to the heart of Tanzania's wildlife. At the TAASA Lodge, located by Klein’s Gate on the Serengeti/Loliondo border, you will enjoy upscale bush cuisine and flexible dining options, including bush breakfasts and sundowners. The large tented suites offer a comfortable retreat with lounge areas and private verandas overlooking the stunning Lobo Valley.
After your stay at TAASA, you will head to Tanzania Bush Camps Ndutu, a mid-range seasonal camp that opens its doors during the calving months. Here, you can immerse yourself in the action of the calving season, with simple yet hearty meals served in a communal setting that fosters camaraderie among guests. The Meru-style tents provide a rustic charm with en-suite bathrooms and solar lighting, ensuring a comfortable stay.
Your final night will be spent at the Ang'ata Tented Camp Ngorongoro, perched on the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater. This camp allows for early access to the crater floor, maximizing your chances of witnessing incredible wildlife sightings, including the Big Five. Enjoy communal dinners by the campfire, sharing stories of the day's adventures in an intimate atmosphere.
With this itinerary, you will not only witness the breathtaking landscapes and diverse wildlife of Tanzania but also enjoy the unique experiences that each lodge offers. From the stunning views at TAASA Lodge to the authentic tented experience at Ang'ata, this safari is designed for both first-timers and seasoned travelers seeking an unforgettable journey through Tanzania's most iconic parks.
