5-Day Mid-Range Tanzania Safari with Kati Kati Camp
Why this Package
Short but well-rounded, this 5-day safari tour delivers three different ecosystems, including Central Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire, without wasting time. Begin your adventure in the heart of the Serengeti, where the great migration routes and big cats await. You'll experience the thrill of game drives in these iconic parks while enjoying the comforts of budget and mid-range accommodations.
Your journey starts at Ikumbi Lodge in Karatu, an affordable base that offers a blend of comfort and practicality. With a selection of modern rooms featuring private bathrooms, you can relax after a day of exploration. Meals are served on a full-board basis, ensuring you have hearty options to fuel your adventures. The lodge is conveniently located, making it easy to access the Ngorongoro Crater, just a short drive away.
Next, head to the Central Serengeti and stay at Kati Kati Tented Camp, a mid-range classic that provides simple yet comfortable accommodations. This camp is strategically positioned for early morning game drives, allowing you to witness the wildlife before the crowds arrive. Enjoy basic but hearty meals, including picnic breakfasts and communal dinners, while soaking in the camp's rustic charm.
Finally, visit Tarangire National Park, known for its large elephant herds and iconic baobab trees. The diverse landscapes and abundant wildlife make it a perfect finale to your safari experience. This 5-day itinerary is ideal for both first-time visitors and seasoned travelers looking to explore Tanzania's rich ecosystems.

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.
