Safari summary
This 3-day private safari takes you on an exciting journey through two of Tanzania’s most famous and unforgettable wildlife areas, Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater. It’s a great choice for travelers who want to see a lot in a short amount of time. You’ll travel in a private 4x4 safari vehicle with a knowledgeable guide who will help you find animals, share facts about the parks, and make sure you enjoy every moment of your trip.
This safari starts in Arusha and takes you through the changing landscapes of northern Tanzania, from the rolling green hills of the highlands to the wide, open plains of the Serengeti. In the Serengeti, you’ll have the chance to see many kinds of animals, including lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and large herds of wildebeest. The park is especially famous for the Great Migration, but even outside migration season, the wildlife is amazing.
On the final day, you’ll visit the Ngorongoro Crater, one of the best places in Africa to see wildlife in a small area. The crater is home to thousands of animals, including black rhinos, hippos, buffalo, and flamingos. Because the animals stay inside the crater all year round, it offers excellent game viewing in every season. With beautiful views, peaceful nights at your lodges, and exciting game drives each day, this safari offers a perfect mix of adventure, nature, and comfort.
