Why this Package

Experience the wonders of Tarangire, the vast landscapes of Central Serengeti, and the vibrant birdlife at Lake Manyara over five unforgettable days. This mid-range safari offers a perfect balance of comfort and adventure, allowing you to immerse yourself in the heart of Tanzania's wildlife.

Your journey begins in Tarangire National Park, renowned for its impressive elephant herds and iconic baobab trees. Here, you can witness the majesty of these gentle giants as they roam the park's expansive savannahs. Following this, you will venture into the Central Serengeti, where the density of wildlife is unparalleled, providing excellent opportunities for spotting the Big Five and other magnificent creatures.

As you conclude your safari at Lake Manyara, prepare to be captivated by the stunning views and the possibility of seeing tree-climbing lions and flocks of flamingos. Each park offers a unique experience, making this itinerary ideal for both first-time visitors and seasoned safari-goers.

Your accommodations include the Farmhouse Valley Adventure, a mid-range lodge located on the outskirts of Karatu. This lodge features spacious chalet-style rooms with en-suite bathrooms, mosquito nets, and private verandas, providing a cozy retreat after your daily adventures. Enjoy full-board dining with locally sourced produce, including fresh vegetables from the lodge's own gardens. The atmosphere is polished yet relaxed, making it a great base for your safari.

In addition, you will stay at the Serengeti Wildlands Camp, a mid-range tented camp situated in the heart of the Central Serengeti. This camp allows you to wake up surrounded by nature, maximizing your chances of early morning game drives. The Meru-style tents are comfortable and functional, with en-suite bathrooms and a shared mess tent for communal dining.

With easy access to all parks, including a short drive to the Ngorongoro gate, this safari is designed to offer you the best of Tanzania's wildlife experiences. Whether you're looking to explore the rich biodiversity or simply relax in beautiful surroundings, this journey promises to be memorable.

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.
