Why this Package

Fold the Grumeti corridor into a 5-Day safari tour already covering Tarangire, Central Serengeti, West Serengeti, and Ngorongoro—ideal in April to June. This journey offers a unique blend of wildlife experiences and comfort, perfect for both first-time visitors and seasoned safari-goers.

Your adventure begins in Tarangire National Park, renowned for its impressive elephant herds and iconic baobab trees. Stay at the Tarangire Kati Kati Tented Camp, where you can enjoy hearty meals and comfortable Meru tents, all while being close to the wildlife. The camp's strategic location allows for early morning game drives, maximizing your chances to see lions and elephants in their natural habitat.

Next, head to the Central Serengeti, where the Serengeti Simba Lodge awaits. This mid-range lodge offers solid comfort with thatched stone cottages and communal dining. Enjoy buffet-style meals featuring local and international dishes, and relax in the lounge or by the pool after a day of exploring the rich wildlife, including the elusive big cats.

Your safari continues to the West Serengeti, where the landscapes are breathtaking and wildlife abounds. Finally, experience the stunning Ngorongoro Crater at the Sanctuary Ngorongoro Crater Camp. Nestled near the crater rim, this camp provides elegant tented hospitality with refined dining options. Enjoy spacious tents with en-suite bathrooms and the convenience of being among the first vehicles to descend into the crater for unforgettable wildlife sightings.

With a mix of mid-range and luxury accommodations, this safari tour promises a memorable experience filled with the sights and sounds of Tanzania's incredible wildlife. From the dramatic landscapes of Tarangire to the breathtaking views of Ngorongoro, each moment is designed to immerse you in the beauty of the African wilderness.

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.
