5-Day Upper Mid-Range Tanzania Safari with Kon Tiki Serengeti
Why this Package
Baobab silhouettes to crater lakes to kopje ridgelines—experience a 5-day safari that takes you through the stunning landscapes of Central Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire. This journey combines the comforts of mid-range and upper mid-range lodges, ensuring a perfect blend of adventure and relaxation.
Your stay at Embalakai Tented Camp Ngorongoro offers a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the bush atmosphere while being just minutes from the crater descent road. Enjoy hearty meals served in the mess tent, including early breakfasts to maximize your time in the crater. Each tent features a private veranda, allowing you to soak in the tranquil forest surroundings.
Next, you’ll venture into the heart of the Central Serengeti at Kon Tiki Serengeti Camp. This upper mid-range camp is perfectly situated for year-round wildlife sightings, including the iconic big cats. With spacious canvas tents equipped with en-suite bathrooms and verandas, you’ll find comfort amidst the wild. Meals here include picnic breakfasts and plated dinners, offering a taste of both local and international cuisine.
Finally, your adventure will take you to Tarangire, renowned for its massive elephant herds and stunning baobab trees. This park is a fantastic place to witness wildlife in a less crowded environment, allowing for a more intimate safari experience.
With multiple nights in each location, you’ll have ample time to explore and appreciate the diverse ecosystems and wildlife of Tanzania. This itinerary is ideal for both first-time safari-goers and seasoned travelers looking to deepen their experience.
