5-Day Mid-Range Tanzania Safari with Friends Serengeti Camp
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. Experience the thrill of game drives while enjoying the comforts of mid-range accommodations. Start your adventure in Tarangire National Park, known for its majestic elephants and iconic baobabs, before heading to the heart of the Serengeti, where the predator-rich valleys await.
Your stay begins at Farm of Dreams Lodge in Karatu, a lively resort-style lodge with spacious rooms overlooking lush gardens. The lodge offers hearty buffet-style meals, perfect for fueling your daily adventures. With a large swimming pool and a vibrant atmosphere, it’s an excellent base for families and groups. Enjoy early breakfasts and packed lunches to maximize your time in the parks.
Next, venture into the Central Serengeti and settle in at Friends Serengeti Tented Camp. This camp provides a rustic yet comfortable experience, ideal for those who prioritize game-viewing. Meals here are simple and hearty, ensuring you are well-fed after a day of exploration. The Meru-style tents offer cozy accommodations with en-suite bathrooms, allowing you to connect with nature without sacrificing comfort.
As you explore West Serengeti, you’ll have the opportunity to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration, a spectacle that draws wildlife enthusiasts from around the globe. Finally, descend into the Ngorongoro Crater, where you can spot the Big Five in one of the most breathtaking landscapes on Earth. The crater mornings are particularly magical, offering prime predator sightings as the sun rises over this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
This 5-day journey is perfect for both first-time visitors and seasoned safari-goers, providing a well-rounded experience of Tanzania's stunning wildlife and landscapes.
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.
