6-Day Upper Mid-Range Tarangire Serengeti Safari with Arukore Simba Camp
Why this Package
Your adventure begins in Tarangire with its dense elephant herds and ends in Central Serengeti, where lions and cheetahs dominate the grasslands. Over six days, immerse yourself in the stunning landscapes and vibrant wildlife of these iconic parks while enjoying the comforts of a mix of mid-range and upper mid-range lodges.
Start your journey at Sangaiwe Tented Lodge, located just outside Tarangire National Park. This lodge offers a blend of tented safari style and affordability, making it perfect for those eager to explore Tarangire’s famous elephants and baobab trees. Enjoy delicious buffet meals, including early teas and picnic lunches, while staying in permanent tents equipped with en-suite bathrooms and verandas. With quick access to the park gate, you can maximize your wildlife viewing opportunities.
Next, head to the Central Serengeti and stay at Arukore Simba Camp. This upper mid-range tented lodge is designed for travelers seeking comfort with a rustic character. Its prime location ensures you are close to year-round predator activity and migration herds during transitional months. Meals here include picnic breakfasts and plated three-course dinners, showcasing local flavors alongside international staples. The canvas tents feature king or twin beds, en-suite bathrooms, and private verandas, providing a cozy retreat after a day of exploration.
With a well-planned itinerary, you will have ample time to witness the breathtaking wildlife of both parks. From the majestic elephants of Tarangire to the big cats of the Serengeti, this safari promises unforgettable moments. Experience the thrill of game drives and the beauty of the African landscape as you create lasting memories.
