5-Day Upper Mid-Range Great Migration Safari with Arukore Simba Camp
Why this Package
When timing matches the Grumeti season, this 5-day safari tour takes you through Tarangire, Central Serengeti, West Serengeti, and Ngorongoro, offering a diverse experience of Tanzania's wildlife and landscapes. Start your adventure in Tarangire National Park, known for its iconic baobabs and large elephant herds, before heading to the heart of the Serengeti, where the Great Migration unfolds. Enjoy the comforts of the Arukore Simba Camp, an upper mid-range tented lodge that combines rustic charm with modern amenities.
Your stay at Arukore Simba Camp in the Central Serengeti ensures you are close to year-round predator activity and migration herds. The camp features canvas tents with king or twin beds, en-suite bathrooms, and private verandas for relaxing after a day of game drives. Meals include hearty picnic breakfasts, packed lunches, and plated three-course dinners that blend local flavors with international cuisine.
After exploring the Serengeti, you will visit the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its stunning landscapes and rich wildlife, including the Big Five. Your accommodation at Baghayo Garden Suites in Karatu offers a homely feel with garden-view suites and hearty homestyle meals, making it a perfect stop before or after your crater tour.
Finally, your journey concludes back in Arusha, where you can reflect on the incredible wildlife experiences and breathtaking scenery you've encountered. This safari is ideal for both first-time visitors and seasoned travelers looking to deepen their connection with Tanzania's natural beauty.
Mix of mid-range and upper 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.
