5-Day Mid-Range Serengeti Tour with Tanzania Bush Camps
Why this Package
Caldera to kopjes to river country—this 5-day safari tour takes you through the North Serengeti, Central Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater, offering a captivating wildlife narrative. Begin your adventure in the stunning landscapes of the Ngorongoro Crater, where you'll stay at the Ang’ata Tented Camp Ngorongoro. Positioned right on the crater rim, this mid-range tented camp provides a unique logistical advantage, allowing you to descend into the crater early for exceptional wildlife sightings, particularly of predators in the cool morning air.
Meals at Ang’ata are served full-board, with hearty options that fuel your long safari days. Enjoy early breakfasts and packed lunches for full-day crater safaris, while dinners are shared in a communal setting, enhancing the intimate safari atmosphere. The camp features 8–10 classic safari tents, each with en-suite bathrooms, flush toilets, and hot bucket showers, ensuring comfort amidst the wilderness.
Your journey continues to the Central Serengeti, where you’ll experience the Serengeti Classic View Camp. This mid-range camp offers a straightforward yet comfortable stay, perfect for maximizing your game-viewing hours. Meals are casual and communal, with picnic breakfasts and simple plated dinners that keep you energized for your adventures. The basic canvas tents provide essential amenities, ensuring you remain close to the heart of the wildlife action.
Finally, venture to the North Serengeti and stay at Tanzania Bush Camps Kogatende, a seasonal camp set up to follow the migration. This camp offers an authentic canvas experience, with meals focusing on hearty safari staples. The Meru-style tents provide a rustic atmosphere, and the camp's proximity to the Mara River ensures you’re well-positioned to witness the dramatic river crossings during the migration.
This 5-day safari is ideal for both first-timers and seasoned travelers, providing a balanced mix of adventure and comfort. With multiple nights in each park, you’ll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the stunning landscapes and diverse wildlife of Tanzania. Experience the thrill of the Serengeti and the unique ecosystem of the Ngorongoro Crater, all while enjoying the comforts of mid-range lodges that enhance your safari experience.
