Why this Package

Add elephant corridors to a 5-Day safari tour already spanning crater density and two Serengeti cores—Central Serengeti and North Serengeti, along with the stunning Ngorongoro Crater and the wildlife-rich Tarangire. This journey offers an incredible opportunity to experience Tanzania's diverse landscapes and wildlife while enjoying the comforts of mid-range accommodations.

Your adventure begins in Tarangire National Park, where you can witness large herds of elephants and the park's iconic baobab trees. After a day of exploration, you’ll retreat to Farmhouse Valley Adventure, a mid-range lodge located on the outskirts of Karatu. Here, you can enjoy full-board dining with locally sourced produce, including meals served in a communal setting that fosters a friendly atmosphere.

As you continue your safari, you'll spend a night in the Central Serengeti, where the abundance of wildlife ensures thrilling game drives. Staying at Nyikani Tented Camp Serengeti, you’ll experience the authentic feel of a permanent tented camp with hearty meals and comfortable accommodations, perfect for families and couples alike.

Next, you’ll venture to the North Serengeti, where the Mara Pure Migration Tented Camp awaits. This seasonal camp is strategically located near the Mara River, allowing you to witness the spectacular wildebeest migration and river crossings. Meals here are simple yet filling, designed to keep you energized for your daily adventures.

Finally, your safari culminates in the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, where you can explore the unique ecosystem teeming with wildlife. The crater is renowned for its Big 5 sightings, and you’ll have the chance to spot lions, elephants, and more in this UNESCO World Heritage Site. The lodge options in Karatu provide a comfortable base, with easy access to the crater and surrounding parks, ensuring you make the most of your safari experience.

With a mix of budget and mid-range lodges, this 5-day safari is ideal for first-time visitors and seasoned travelers alike, offering a perfect blend of adventure and comfort.

Book with the Right Tour Operator

Each safari company has its own strengths — some specialize in luxury safaris, some in mid-range, and some in budget trips. Their expertise depends on years of experience in specific price categories, the quality of their guides and vehicles, and the lodge partnerships they’ve built over time. None of this is visible on websites or forums, which is why NMT connects you directly with the operators best suited to your safari tier.
