4 Days Ngorongoro & Serengeti Big Five Safari

4 Days Serengeti & Ngorongoro Midrange Safari

Experience four unforgettable days exploring Tanzania’s most iconic wildlife havens. Spend three nights in the heart of the Central Serengeti — where lions roam free and sunsets paint the plains — before descending into the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater for a final day of adventure. This midrange safari is perfect for travelers seeking comfort, rich wildlife experiences, and expertly guided game drives without compromising on authenticity.

Day 1: Arusha to Central Serengeti

Depart Arusha in the morning and journey across the Great Rift Valley toward the Central Serengeti. Whether by scenic overland drive or optional flight (extra cost), arrive in the park ready to embrace your first game drive en route to your luxury tented camp. Watch herds of zebra, giraffe, and antelope graze freely as you settle into the rhythm of the wild. Dinner under the stars rounds out your first day in the bush.

Optionally, add a sunrise hot air balloon safari ($599 pp) for panoramic views of the plains followed by a champagne breakfast in the bush.
