Why this package

If your dates align, this 5-day safari tour takes you through the stunning landscapes of North Serengeti, Central Serengeti, and the iconic Ngorongoro Crater. Enjoy the adventure of a lifetime while staying at a mix of budget and mid-range lodges that provide comfort without compromising on the authentic safari experience.

Your journey begins in the North Serengeti at the Ang’ata Migration – Bologonja Camp, a seasonal camp near the Mara River. This camp is strategically located for optimal viewing of the Great Wildebeest Migration, especially during the river crossings from July to October. Here, you will enjoy simple yet hearty meals, including picnic breakfasts and communal dinners, all served in a rustic setting. The Meru-style tents offer comfortable beds, en-suite bathrooms, and a cozy atmosphere around the campfire.

Next, you’ll travel to the Central Serengeti and stay at the Serengeti Pure Tented Camp. This camp is perfect for wildlife enthusiasts, providing direct access to the rich wildlife concentrations of Seronera, where you can spot lions and cheetahs. Meals are filling and straightforward, with a focus on local staples. The Meru-style tents here also feature en-suite bathrooms, ensuring a practical yet comfortable stay.

Your final night will be spent at Ikumbi Lodge in Karatu, an affordable base that offers a more polished experience than many budget options. With its modern rooms and full-board dining, you’ll find comfort and convenience before heading to the Ngorongoro Crater. The lodge is located just a short drive from the crater gate, allowing for early morning departures to witness the incredible wildlife, including the Big Five.

With this itinerary, you’ll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the breathtaking landscapes and diverse wildlife of Tanzania, making it an ideal choice for both first-time visitors and seasoned safari-goers. Experience the thrill of game drives, the beauty of the African sunset, and the camaraderie of shared meals under the stars. This safari is not just about seeing wildlife; it's about creating unforgettable memories.
