5 Day Safari Tanzania Tented Camp

You be collected from your hotel and then drive to the beautiful Tarangire National Park. Travelling through the reserve in an open air vehicle, experience a close up with the elephants, buffalos, zebras, gnus as well as various types of antelope and gazelles. We will enjoy a picnic lunch in the bush and take in more of the park.

Stay at Lake Burunge Baobab Tented Camp

After admiring the wonders of nature, we make our way out of the park and drive to the Lake Burunge Baobab Tented Lodge where you can relax amongst the bushes with stunning views of the lake. You will be able to socialise in the lounge, bar or dining area which are built on a raised wooden deck. Set on elevated platforms with panoramic views over Lake Burunge and the baobab-studded plains near Tarangire National Park, Lake Burunge Baobab Tented Camp is a serene wilderness retreat where guests can enjoy Tarangire game drives, guided shore walks, lake canoeing, bush sundowners, and cultural visits to local villages.

We depart the Tarangire Area after breakfast and head towards the Rift Valley where we will pass through Mto Wa Mbu and Karatu. We will make our way to the perfect vantage point of the Ngorongoro Crater. Then we will circle the crater and descend to the other side. A bumpy ride will take us to the Masai villages as we make our way to the Serengeti National Park. The Naabi Hill entrance gate gives us a fantastic viewpoint across the plains of the Serengeti. It is then off to the Seronera Area in the central part of the Serengeti where you can look out for the ‘Big Five’. Lunch will be taken en-route.

Stay at Kati Kati Tented Camp

We will arrive at the Kati Kati Tented Camp in the late afternoon. This is a secluded camp which is perfect for listening to the call of the wild under the glistening starry skies. Kati Kati Tented Camp is an authentic, eco-friendly mobile safari camp set in the heart of the Serengeti, where guests can experience immersive game drives, bush breakfasts, hot air balloon safaris, and relaxing evenings with appetizers around an open campfire.

We will have a hearty breakfast to fill us up for a game drive in the Serengeti National Park. Lunch will be at a lovely picnic spot. Depending on the time of the year you may be able to witness the great migration where thousands of wildebeests, zebras and Thompson gazelles head for greener pastures. During October and November it is the rainy season and you will see the animals moving from the Kenyan Masai Mara through to the northwest. April, May and June brings heavy rain and so the herds travel back to the western and north-western part of the Serengeti. With all these animals a large presence of predators are in tow and kills might be seen.

Stay at Kati Kati Tented Camp

We return to Kati Kati camp for what we hope will be a time of sharing the action that you saw during the day.

Daybreak will have us rising to the rays of sun and enjoying breakfast. We head off from the Serengeti to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The lions, leopards and cheetahs are usually very active in the cooler hours. We will enjoy a picnic lunch in a designated area. We will reach the crater’s edge and hold on as we descend into it for an adventurous journey. The crater is packed with over 25000 animals including lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino and leopard.

Stay at Tanganyika Wilderness Adventure Lodge

We will then ascend the crater and drive to Karatu where we overnight. Tanganyika Wilderness Camps offer a diverse collection of eco-friendly lodges, permanent tented camps, and mobile safari setups situated in Tanzania’s prime wildlife destinations, where guests can indulge in guided game drives, bush walks, hot air ballooning, and authentic cultural interactions with local tribes.

We will return to Arusha after breakfast and should arrive at about noon. For those of you who want to join the tour to Zanzibar you can take a flight from the Arusha airport or Kilimanjaro International Airport. Lunch will be taken during our journey.
