Begin your adventure at Conserve Safari Serengeti Camp, where the authentic bush-camp atmosphere meets upper mid-range comfort. Here, you can indulge in long, unhurried game drives, guided by knowledgeable staff who help you understand the intricate ecosystem of the Serengeti.
Meals at Conserve Safari are thoughtfully prepared, featuring early breakfasts timed to catch the first light, picnic lunches for your day out in the wild, and generous plated dinners. The camp's comfortable canvas tents come equipped with real mattresses, en-suite bathrooms with hot showers, and a cozy mess tent for evening relaxation by the fire pit under the stars.
Next, you’ll transition to Embalakai Tented Camp Ngorongoro, nestled in acacia woodlands near the Ngorongoro Crater rim. This mid-range tented experience offers unbeatable access to one of Africa’s most renowned wildlife habitats. With early breakfasts arranged to maximize your time in the crater, you’ll have the chance to witness active lions and hyenas at dawn, before the crowds arrive.
At Embalakai, enjoy hearty meals served in a communal setting, fostering a sociable atmosphere. Each tent features wooden flooring, en-suite bathrooms, and a private veranda, allowing you to soak in the serene bush surroundings. The camp’s rustic charm provides an intimate experience, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a true tented bush experience.
Finally, you’ll stay at Farm of Dreams Lodge in Karatu, a larger mid-range base that offers a resort-style atmosphere with sprawling grounds and a sizable swimming pool. Here, you can unwind after your daily adventures, enjoying buffet-style meals that cater well to groups. The spacious rooms overlook lush gardens and are designed for comfort, featuring large en-suite bathrooms and private terraces.
This safari is perfect for both first-timers and seasoned travelers, offering a balanced mix of wildlife viewing and relaxation. Experience the iconic landscapes of Tarangire and the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, where you can witness the majestic Big Five in their natural habitat. With a well-planned itinerary, you’ll appreciate the value of multiple nights in each location, allowing for deeper exploration and memorable encounters.
