Why this Package

Four signatures in a 6-Day safari tour without losing drive time to long detours, explore the stunning landscapes of Tarangire, Central Serengeti, West Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater. This adventure is perfect for both first-timers and seasoned safari-goers seeking a blend of comfort and authenticity.

Your journey begins in Tarangire National Park, renowned for its massive elephant herds and iconic baobabs. Spend the night at Africa Safari Rift Valley, a mid-range lodge just outside Karatu. Here, you’ll enjoy hearty meals served in a relaxed atmosphere, with options for early breakfasts and picnic lunches for your adventures. The lodge features a mix of safari-style tents and bungalow rooms, all equipped with en-suite bathrooms, ensuring a comfortable stay after a day of exploration.

Next, venture into the Central Serengeti where you’ll stay at Tanzania Bush Camps. These mobile-style camps are strategically placed to keep you close to the action during migration months. Enjoy communal plated dinners and picnic breakfasts, all while soaking in the authentic bush atmosphere. The Meru-style tents provide a cozy retreat with en-suite facilities, allowing you to unwind under the stars.

Your safari continues to the West Serengeti, where the wildlife spectacle is truly captivating. Finally, you’ll descend into the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage site, for a chance to witness the Big Five in their natural habitat. The drive from your lodge to the crater gate is manageable, allowing you to maximize your wildlife viewing time.

With this itinerary, you’ll experience the best of Tanzania’s wildlife and landscapes, making it an unforgettable journey. For more insights on the incredible wildlife you might encounter, check out our guide on the Big Five in the Serengeti and learn about the Great Wildebeest Migration.

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.
