Why this Package

Begin with herds of elephants in Tarangire, follow the Serengeti’s iconic big cats, then enjoy birdlife and groundwater forests in Lake Manyara. This 5-day safari offers a perfect blend of adventure and comfort, staying in reliable mid-range accommodations. Start your journey at Country Lodge Karatu, where you can enjoy hearty buffet meals featuring a mix of international and Tanzanian dishes. The lodge provides comfortable cottage rooms equipped with en-suite bathrooms and verandas, ideal for relaxing after a day of exploration. Its location is convenient, just a short drive from both the Ngorongoro Gate and Lake Manyara National Park, making it a great base for families and groups.

As you venture into the Central Serengeti, you’ll experience the thrill of game drives from Embalakai Tented Camp. This rustic camp is designed for those who appreciate an authentic safari experience. Enjoy simple yet hearty meals, including picnic breakfasts and communal dinners, while staying in Meru-style tents with en-suite facilities. The camp's proximity to the Seronera Valley enhances your chances of witnessing the region's famous predator sightings, especially during dawn and dusk drives.

Finally, your journey concludes with a visit to Lake Manyara, known for its stunning landscapes and diverse wildlife, including the unique tree-climbing lions. This itinerary is perfect for both first-time visitors and seasoned safari-goers looking to immerse themselves in Tanzania's breathtaking natural beauty.

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.
