Safari summary
This 6-day, budget camping itinerary takes you on a journey through Tanzania’s unrivaled wildlife destinations – Tarangire, Manyara, Ngorongoro Crater, and the fabled Serengeti – to deliver a dramatic and diverse big game safari. Begin your adventure by exploring Tarangire mobs of elephants and the dotted baobab landscape, then to Lake Manyara with its thousands of flamingos and famous tree-climbing lions before moving on to encounter the spectacle of the Ngorongoro Crater floor, home to Africa’s Big 5. The sweeping plains of the Serengeti provide a backdrop for the tour’s grand finale. Game viewing is superb all year round, but if you have timed your safari with the wildebeest migration, you can expect massed herds and plenty of predator action.
