5-Day Mid-Range Serengeti Tour with Tloma Lodge
Why this Package
For travelers who want variety without the full circuit, this 5-day safari tour covers the stunning landscapes of Central Serengeti, the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, and the iconic baobabs of Tarangire. Experience the thrill of wildlife immersion while enjoying the comforts of mid-range accommodations.
Your adventure begins at the Serengeti Pure Tented Camp, located in the heart of the Central Serengeti. This camp offers a genuine safari experience with simple yet comfortable Meru-style tents featuring proper beds, en-suite bathrooms, and mosquito nets. Meals are hearty and communal, focusing on filling options like picnic breakfasts and plated dinners, perfect for fueling your daily explorations.
Next, you will stay at Tloma Lodge, nestled on the edge of a coffee plantation in Karatu. With its lush gardens and serene atmosphere, this lodge provides a peaceful retreat after a day of wildlife viewing. Enjoy farm-to-table dining with fresh produce from the lodge’s gardens, and unwind in cozy chalet-style rooms that overlook the beautiful surroundings.
Access to the parks is convenient, with the Seronera Airstrip just a short flight away, ensuring you maximize your time on safari. The proximity of Tloma Lodge to the Ngorongoro Crater allows for early morning descents into the crater, enhancing your chances of witnessing the incredible wildlife, including the Big 5.
With a balanced itinerary that includes ample time in each park, this safari is ideal for both first-timers and repeat visitors looking to deepen their connection with Tanzania’s remarkable wildlife.

Book with the Right Tour Operator
