5-Day Mid-Range Tarangire Serengeti Tour with Africa Safari
Why this Package
See the big tuskers of Tarangire, traverse the lion-filled grasslands of Central Serengeti, and conclude your adventure among the flamingos of Lake Manyara. This 5-day safari is designed for travelers seeking a blend of comfort and authenticity, featuring a mix of budget and mid-range accommodations.
Your journey begins at Africa Safari Rift Valley, a mid-range lodge located just outside Karatu. Here, you can enjoy hearty buffet-style meals and early breakfasts to fuel your safari adventures. The lodge offers a variety of accommodations, including safari-style tents and bungalow rooms, all equipped with en-suite bathrooms. Relax by the swimming pool or take in the stunning views over the Rift Valley from the lounge.
As you venture into the Central Serengeti, you’ll stay at Embalakai Tented Camp, which provides a rustic bush atmosphere perfect for an immersive safari experience. The camp's location near the Seronera Valley ensures excellent opportunities for predator sightings during your game drives. Meals here are simple yet satisfying, featuring communal dinners and picnic lunches that allow you to enjoy the wilderness.
Your final night will be spent at a lodge near Lake Manyara, where you can unwind and reflect on your safari experiences. This itinerary not only offers diverse wildlife encounters but also allows for deeper exploration of each park, making it ideal for both first-timers and repeat visitors.
With a focus on affordability and comfort, this safari package is perfect for families and couples looking to create lasting memories in Tanzania's breathtaking landscapes.
Mix of budget and mid-range Tanzania Safari
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.
