Overview

5-Day Serengeti Safari including Ngorongoro Crater is the ultimate wildlife adventure for travelers seeking a mix of thrilling game drives, breathtaking landscapes, and unforgettable wildlife encounters in Tanzania. Starting from Arusha, this safari takes you deep into the Serengeti National Park, one of Africa’s most famous wildlife destinations, and the world-renowned Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

During the first day, you will travel from Arusha to the Central Serengeti, where your first evening game drive offers a chance to spot lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and hippos. Overnight stays in a comfortable tented camp or lodge allow you to relax while surrounded by nature.

Days two and three are dedicated to exploring the Serengeti plains, including the Seronera region, known for its high concentration of predators and wildlife. Guests can enjoy morning and afternoon game drives, photography opportunities, and the optional hot air balloon safari for a unique aerial perspective of the vast plains.

On day four, the safari continues to the Ngorongoro Crater, descending into its fertile caldera for a half-day game drive. Here, travelers have an excellent chance of spotting the Big Five: lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino, alongside flamingos, hippos, and other wildlife. The day ends with overnight accommodation in Karatu, just outside the crater.

Day five features a final morning game drive in Ngorongoro Crater, followed by a scenic drive back to Arusha, concluding your 5-day adventure.

This safari package includes transportation in a 4x4 safari vehicle, professional English-speaking guides, park entrance fees, meals, and bottled water. Options range from budget-friendly to luxury lodges, ensuring a tailored experience for every traveler.
