6-Day Upper Mid-Range Tanzania Safari with Kon Tiki Serengeti
Why this Package
Baobab silhouettes to crater lakes to kopje ridgelines—6-Day safari tour through Tarangire, Central Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. Experience the thrill of the Tarangire National Park, renowned for its majestic elephants and iconic baobabs, before immersing yourself in the heart of the Serengeti, where the Great Migration unfolds. Finally, explore the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Your journey begins in Arusha, where you will set off to Tarangire for a night at the Ngorongoro Farm House. This spacious lodge, styled around a colonial coffee plantation, offers a perfect blend of comfort and atmosphere. Enjoy hearty meals made from fresh produce sourced from the lodge’s own farm, and unwind in chalet-style rooms that overlook lush gardens and coffee fields.
Next, head to the Central Serengeti and stay at the Kon Tiki Serengeti Camp. This upper mid-range camp is ideally located for year-round wildlife sightings, especially big cats and resident elephants. Relish in the thoughtful dining options, including picnic breakfasts and plated dinners featuring both Swahili and international dishes. Your spacious canvas tent provides a comfortable retreat, complete with en-suite bathrooms and stunning views from your private veranda.
Conclude your adventure at the Ngorongoro Marera Mountain View Lodge, a value-minded mid-range base set on a breezy slope above Karatu. With its calm ambiance, enjoy home-style cooking and cozy cottage rooms that offer breathtaking valley views. The lodge's proximity to both Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara makes it an ideal spot for alternating park visits.
With multiple nights in each location, you’ll have ample time to soak in the wildlife and landscapes, making this safari perfect for both first-timers and seasoned travelers. Witness the sunrise over the baobabs, hear the distant roars of lions, and create unforgettable memories in the heart of Tanzania.

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.
