4 DAYS SERENGETI & NGORONGORO SAFARI

Package Overview

Experience the best of Tanzania’s northern safari circuit with our 4-day Serengeti & Ngorongoro Safari. This short but exciting safari combines two of Tanzania’s most famous wildlife destinations: Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater.

Begin your adventure in Arusha before traveling into the vast Serengeti plains. Enjoy game drives in search of lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, cheetahs, and other African wildlife. You will also have the chance to experience the spectacular landscapes of the Serengeti.

Next, continue to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and descend into the Ngorongoro Crater for a memorable game drive. The crater is famous for its high concentration of wildlife and offers excellent opportunities to see the Big Five.

Why Choose This Serengeti & Ngorongoro Safari?

This four-day safari allows you to experience two of Tanzania’s most famous wildlife destinations in a short period.

First, explore the endless plains of the Serengeti, where wildlife moves across a vast natural landscape. Enjoy morning and afternoon game drives while looking for some of Africa’s most iconic animals.

Next, visit the Ngorongoro Crater, a unique wildlife area surrounded by steep crater walls. The concentration of animals inside the crater makes it one of the best places in Tanzania for a rewarding game-viewing experience.

The safari is also flexible. You can choose a shared safari for better value or request a private safari for more flexibility and personal service.

Discover Serengeti & Ngorongoro

Discover Serengeti National Park

The Serengeti is one of Africa’s most famous safari destinations. Its wide grasslands provide an excellent environment for wildlife viewing throughout the year.

During your game drives, look out for lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, buffalo, cheetahs, hyenas, and many species of birds.

The Serengeti is also famous for the annual Great Migration. However, wildlife viewing remains rewarding outside the migration season because large numbers of resident animals live in the park.

Discover Ngorongoro Crater

The Ngorongoro Crater offers a very different safari experience. The crater’s enclosed landscape supports a large variety of wildlife, creating excellent game-viewing opportunities.

During your crater game drive, look for lions, elephants, buffaloes, zebras, wildebeest, hippos, and other wildlife. If you’re lucky, you may also spot the endangered black rhino.

The dramatic crater walls and open grasslands also create beautiful scenery for photography.

Optional Activities

Enhance your 4 Days Serengeti & Ngorongoro Safari with extra experiences before or after your main safari.

Optional activities are available at an additional cost and depend on availability, weather conditions, and your travel dates.

Best Time to Visit Tanzania

Tanzania is a year-round safari destination, although each season offers a different experience. June to October is a popular period for wildlife viewing because the weather is generally dry and animals often gather around available water sources. January to February can also be rewarding, especially for travelers interested in the wildebeest calving season in the Serengeti.

The March to May period brings the long rains so that some safari roads can become more challenging. However, the parks are quieter, and the landscapes become lush and green. November to December brings shorter rains, while wildlife viewing remains possible. If your main goal is to experience the Great Migration, the best location depends on where the herds are moving during your travel dates.

What to Pack

Pack comfortable and practical clothing for your safari. We recommend lightweight neutral-coloured clothes, comfortable walking shoes, a warm jacket for early morning drives, a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and insect repellent. A camera, binoculars, a reusable water bottle, a power bank, and a universal travel adapter are also useful.

Remember to carry your passport, travel documents, personal medication, and other essential items. Early mornings can be cool, especially around the Ngorongoro highlands, so warm layers are recommended even during warmer months.

Travel Tips

• Wear comfortable shoes and carry a warm layer for early morning game drives.
• Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, insect repellent, and a camera or binoculars.
• Keep your passport, travel documents, medication, and valuables secure.
• Follow your safari guide’s instructions and maintain a safe distance from wildlife.
• Carry some local currency for personal purchases and keep your phone or camera charged.
• Book early during peak safari seasons and inform Tunza Tours of any dietary requirements before travel.
