Why this Package

This 5-Day safari tour route keeps distances reasonable while exploring the Central Serengeti, Ndutu Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater. Enjoy the adventure of a fly-in safari from Arusha, allowing you to maximize your time in these iconic locations. Each park offers unique wildlife experiences, particularly during the calving season in Ndutu, where you can witness the dramatic predator-prey interactions.

Your stay at Tanzania Bush Camps provides a comfortable base with a focus on mobility and wildlife proximity. These seasonal mobile-style camps are designed for adventurous travelers who appreciate a rustic yet functional atmosphere. Meals are hearty and simple, featuring early teas, picnic breakfasts, packed lunches, and communal dinners that highlight safari staples.

Accommodations consist of Meru-style tents equipped with beds, mosquito nets, and en-suite bathrooms, ensuring a cozy retreat after a day of exploration. The shared mess tent and campfire create a welcoming environment for evening relaxation. With access to both the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater, your safari experience is enriched by the stunning landscapes and diverse wildlife.

In addition, your journey includes a night at Ndutu Pure Migration Tented Camp, perfectly positioned to follow the great migration. Here, you can enjoy delicious meals and comfortable Meru-style tents with essential amenities. The camp's location allows for off-road driving, providing rare opportunities for photographers to capture thrilling moments of wildlife action.

Finally, a night at Tloma Lodge offers a peaceful retreat on the edge of a coffee plantation, with beautiful views and a focus on farm-to-table dining. The lodge's gardens and tranquil atmosphere make it an ideal spot to unwind before or after your adventures in the Ngorongoro Crater.

With multiple nights in these remarkable locations, you gain deeper insights into the wildlife and landscapes of Tanzania, making this safari perfect for both first-timers and seasoned travelers.

Mid-Range Tanzania Safari

Book with the Right Tour Operator

Each safari company has its own strengths — some specialize in luxury safaris, some in mid-range, and some in budget trips. 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. None of this is visible on websites or forums, which is why NMT connects you directly with the operators best suited to your safari tier.
