Why this Package

Balance your 5-Day safari tour between resident action, seasonal spectacle and a high-yield crater descent. Experience the breathtaking landscapes of the Central Serengeti, the unique wildlife dynamics of Ndutu Serengeti, and the stunning views from the Ngorongoro Crater. This journey is designed for both first-time visitors and seasoned safari-goers, offering a perfect blend of adventure and comfort.

Your adventure begins in the heart of the Serengeti at Serengeti Classic View Camp, a mid-range tented camp that provides a budget-friendly option right in the action. Here, you’ll enjoy hearty meals, including picnic breakfasts and communal dinners, all while surrounded by the sounds of the wild. The basic canvas tents are equipped with proper beds and en-suite bathrooms, ensuring a comfortable stay amidst nature.

Next, you’ll head to Ndutu Kati Kati Tented Camp, a seasonal camp set up during the thrilling wildebeest calving season. This mid-range camp allows you to witness the dramatic predator-prey interactions that unfold right outside your tent. Enjoy early morning tea and light snacks before heading out for game drives, and return to enjoy plated communal dinners featuring hearty staples. The Meru-style tents provide a cozy retreat with en-suite facilities, making it a perfect base for your wildlife adventures.

Your final night will be spent at the Ngorongoro Marera Mountain View Lodge, a value-minded mid-range lodge that offers a serene escape with stunning valley views. Here, you can savor home-style cooking tailored to your safari schedule, relax in spacious cottage rooms with fireplaces, and enjoy the hillside pool. Its strategic location allows easy access to both the Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara, making it an ideal spot for exploring the region.

With this itinerary, you’ll not only witness the iconic wildlife of the Serengeti but also experience the unique ecosystem of the Ngorongoro Crater. The combination of diverse landscapes and rich wildlife encounters makes this safari an unforgettable journey.

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.
