Why this Package
This route reveals the contrasts of northern Tanzania: Tarangire’s elephants, Serengeti’s vast predator stage, and Lake Manyara’s Rift Valley forests. Over the course of six days, immerse yourself in the rich wildlife and stunning landscapes while enjoying the comforts of premium luxury accommodations.
Your journey begins at the exquisite Lemala Mpingo Ridge Lodge in Tarangire, where you can indulge in fine dining with multi-course plated dinners and relax in spacious wood-and-stone suites featuring private plunge pools. The lodge's elevated location provides breathtaking views of the baobab-studded plains, making it a perfect spot for sunset cocktails as you watch elephants tracing the Tarangire River.
Next, you will explore the iconic Serengeti at the luxurious Serengeti Melia Lodge. Here, you can savor gourmet meals prepared with fresh, locally sourced ingredients while enjoying the stunning views from your elegantly designed room or suite. The lodge's infinity pool overlooks the plains, offering a unique vantage point to witness wildlife gathering at a nearby waterhole.
Your adventure continues at the Ngorongoro Coffee Lodge, nestled among Karatu’s coffee estates. This upper mid-range lodge provides generous cottages and a real pool, ensuring comfort and value without the high prices of crater-rim accommodations. With easy access to both the Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara, you can enjoy dawn departures for optimal wildlife viewing.
Each lodge is thoughtfully selected to enhance your safari experience, allowing you to relax and recharge after exhilarating game drives. With a mix of luxury and upper mid-range options, this safari is ideal for both first-time visitors and seasoned travelers looking to explore the best of Tanzania's wildlife.

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.
