6-Day Tanzania Camping Safari through Serengeti and Ngorongoro

• After breakfast, you will be picked up from the hotel by your driver-guide and drive to Tarangire National Park. Tarangire is well known for its large elephant herds. From the open roof of the vehicle, you will experience the seasonal swamps, savanna, and Tarangire River while searching for many animals, including zebra, wildebeest, buffalo, elephant, and giraffe. It is also possible that you will catch a glimpse of a lion stalking its prey or leopards watching and relaxing in the trees above.
• After a full day in the park, you will drive to Sun Bright/Panorama/Fig Big Tree Lodge and Campsite, where you can relax, enjoy dinner, and stay overnight.

Accommodation:

• Name: Panorama
• Type: camp

• After an early breakfast, depart for the most famous national park in the world, the Serengeti. Although the drive is long, it is spectacular and will be an unforgettable moment for anyone seeing it for the first time. As you travel deeper into the Serengeti, you will understand why its name means, in the local language, "endless plains." The park covers 6,900 sq. miles (18,000 sq. km), and across much of it, the plains stretch to the horizon, defying your senses and perception of distance. It is home to the Great Migration and to 2 million wildebeests, hundreds of thousands of zebras, and all kinds of antelopes. For Big Cats and other large predators, it is one of the best places to look for lions, cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas, and many television scenes, including the famous river crossings, have been filmed here.

Accommodation:

• Name: Nyani
• Type: camp

• Early in the morning after breakfast, enjoy a full day in Serengeti National Park. We are completely flexible with your preferences, and this day will be organized according to your wishes. On every day of the safari, your guide will discuss the best timings with you, including game drives and wake-up times. For example, on this day, you could do a morning game drive, return to the camp/lodge for lunch and relaxation, and finish with an afternoon game drive, or you could choose a full-day game drive with a picnic lunch.
• After the game drive, you will be guided back to the camp for rest.

Accommodation:

• On this day, we suggest a very early wake-up for an early morning game drive, when the animals are more active, and to see one of the best sunrises you will ever witness.
• After the game drive, we return to the camp/lodge for a rewarding brunch, then proceed to Ngorongoro, the 8th wonder of the Natural World. The crater covers 102 sq. miles and has 2,000 ft. high walls, making it virtually Noah's Ark and home to almost every species of wildlife indigenous to East Africa. It is one of the very rare places on the continent where you can witness the black rhino. The crater also has a river, several swamps, a soda lake with a great concentration of flamingos, a forest, and open plains. It is also famous for its elephants, which are among the largest in the world and have huge tusks. Ngorongoro Crater is truly a wonder of the Natural World.

• We will start the day very early and descend to the crater floor for an incredible morning of wildlife viewing in one of the most stunning places on Earth.

After lunch, you will continue with game drives inside this evergreen national park, well known for its legendary tree-climbing lions. At the lake, expect to see colourful flamingo flocks and many other aquatic species. The lake is also a haven for hippos.
• After lunch, we will have time for a short game drive, then ascend the crater and exit Ngorongoro Conservation Area towards Kizumba Campsite for dinner and an overnight stay.
