Why this Package
For travelers who want variety without the full circuit, this 5-day safari tour covers Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and the Central Serengeti, allowing you to experience diverse landscapes and wildlife. Enjoy the comforts of mid-range accommodations, including Africa Safari Serengeti Ikoma, located near migration routes, where hearty meals and cozy rooms await. The lodge features thatched safari rooms with en-suite bathrooms, ensuring a comfortable stay after thrilling game drives.
Meals at Ikoma include buffet breakfasts, picnic lunches for your drives, and hearty dinners with a touch of local flavor. The lodge also offers unique activities like night drives and walking safaris, enriching your adventure in the Serengeti. Access to the park is convenient, with Ikoma Gate just a short drive away, making it easy to embark on your daily explorations.
Next, you'll stay at Ang'ata Tented Camp Ngorongoro, perched on the rim of the iconic Ngorongoro Crater. This camp provides an authentic tented experience, complete with full-board meals served in a communal mess tent, fostering a sense of camaraderie among guests. The early descent into the crater allows for exceptional wildlife sightings, especially of predators in the cool morning air.
Finally, unwind at KanKari Lodge Karatu, a charming retreat on the outskirts of Karatu. This lodge offers a more personal touch, with en-suite rooms set in a peaceful garden. Enjoy simple, home-cooked meals that highlight local ingredients, and relax by the swimming pool after your daily adventures. Although it requires a short drive to reach the Ngorongoro gate, the cozy atmosphere and attentive service make it a delightful base for your safari.
With multiple nights in each location, you’ll have ample time to soak in the beauty of Tanzania’s landscapes and wildlife. This itinerary is perfect for both first-time visitors and seasoned safari-goers looking to explore the best of Tanzania.
