Why this Package

Tarangire’s wilderness, Central Serengeti’s big cat encounters, and North Serengeti’s migration crossings weave together a complete safari. Over the course of seven days, you will experience the stunning landscapes and rich wildlife of these iconic parks, all while enjoying the comforts of mid-range accommodations.

Your adventure begins at Heart and Soul Lodge in Karatu, a mid-range eco-styled property that emphasizes sustainability and personal service. Here, you can enjoy hearty meals made from locally sourced ingredients, including early breakfasts and packed lunches perfect for your safari days. The lodge features a small number of cottages with en-suite bathrooms and verandas, creating a quiet and intimate atmosphere surrounded by nature.

Next, you will head to the Central Serengeti, where you will stay at Hippo Trails Camp. This mid-range tented camp offers a unique inside-the-park experience, allowing for early morning and late evening game drives when predators are most active. Meals are hearty and filling, with options for picnic breakfasts and communal dinners. The Meru-style tents provide essential comfort with en-suite bathrooms, ensuring you have a restful stay amidst the wilderness.

Your journey continues to the North Serengeti, where you will experience the thrilling Great Migration at Mara Kati Kati Tented Camp. This seasonal camp is strategically located near Kogatende, offering excellent access to river crossings during the migration season. Meals include picnic breakfasts and communal dinners, designed to fuel your long days of wildlife watching. The Meru-style tents are simple yet comfortable, providing a practical base for your adventures.

Finally, you will conclude your safari with a flight to the beautiful beaches of Zanzibar, where you can unwind after your exhilarating wildlife encounters. This itinerary is perfect for travelers seeking a balanced experience of adventure and relaxation, with ample opportunities to witness the stunning wildlife 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. 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.
