6-Day Upper Mid-Range Serengeti Safari with Arukore Simba Camp
Why this Package
A predator-first 6-Day safari tour: explore the stunning landscapes of North Serengeti and Central Serengeti while enjoying the comforts of an upper mid-range tented lodge. This itinerary is perfect for both first-time visitors and seasoned safari-goers, allowing you to experience the thrill of wildlife sightings in two of Tanzania's most iconic parks.
Your adventure begins with a stay at Arukore Simba Camp in the Central Serengeti, where comfort meets rustic charm. Enjoy delicious meals that include early tea/coffee, picnic breakfasts, and plated three-course dinners featuring local flavors. The canvas tents are equipped with king or twin beds, en-suite bathrooms with hot showers, and verandas for relaxing evenings under the stars. The camp's central location ensures you're close to year-round predator activity, making it an ideal base for your wildlife explorations.
After your time in Central Serengeti, you'll head to Sero Tented Camp Kogatende in the North Serengeti, strategically positioned near the Mara River. This mid-range seasonal camp offers a unique opportunity to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration, especially during crossing days. Meals here are simple yet satisfying, designed to fuel your long days of adventure. The Meru tents provide proper beds and en-suite bathrooms, ensuring a comfortable stay while you immerse yourself in the wild.
Access to both camps is convenient, with short transfers from nearby airstrips, allowing you to maximize your time in the parks. Whether you're tracking the Big Five or simply soaking in the breathtaking landscapes, this safari promises unforgettable experiences.
