Why this Package

For varied shots in this 5-day safari tour, explore the stunning landscapes of Central Serengeti, Ndutu Serengeti, and the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater—each habitat plays differently, offering unique wildlife encounters. Enjoy the comforts of a mix of mid-range and upper mid-range lodges, including the Sound of Silence Tented Camp, where you can savor the tranquility of the Central Serengeti while being close to prime wildlife viewing areas.

Your adventure begins with a stay at Baghayo Garden Suites in Karatu, a perfect base before your Ngorongoro Crater tour. This lodge offers hearty, homestyle meals and comfortable garden-view suites, ensuring a restful night before your explorations. With quick access to the Ngorongoro gate, it’s an ideal choice for families and small groups.

Next, immerse yourself in the wild at Ndutu Pure Migration Tented Camp, where you can witness the spectacular calving season of the wildebeest. This mid-range seasonal camp provides a rustic yet comfortable experience, with hearty meals and en-suite Meru-style tents that keep you connected to nature. The camp's location allows for off-road driving, giving you rare opportunities to observe predator-prey interactions up close.

Finally, retreat to the Sound of Silence Tented Camp in the Central Serengeti, where modern comforts meet a boutique tented experience. Enjoy refined dining with a mix of Swahili and international influences, and relax in spacious tents equipped with en-suite bathrooms and solar-powered lighting. Its peaceful setting away from the busier hubs allows for intimate wildlife encounters, making it a favorite among couples and wildlife enthusiasts.

With this itinerary, you’ll have the chance to explore diverse ecosystems, from the crater lakes of Ngorongoro to the vast plains of the Serengeti, ensuring a rich and unforgettable Tanzania safari experience. Don’t miss the opportunity to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration and the iconic wildlife that call these parks home.

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.
