Overview

From Serengeti National Park’s endless grasslands adorned with acacia woodland and the incredible Big Five, to Ngorongoro Conservation Area’s dramatic crater brimming with flora and fauna, Tanzania is a destination full of natural wonder. This is one of our favourite destinations for getting back to nature and discovering the African wilderness, and our five-night tour is the ideal way to get a taste of what Tanzania is all about.

Depending on the day you embark on your journey, your itinerary will either begin or end in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, travelling to the Serengeti and Lake Manyara for epic game drives, picnics out in the bush, and staying in unique accommodation.

There are two accommodation options for this trip, too. The first is a tour ‘under canvas’, where you will be staying in wonderful luxury tented camps located deep within the wild, perched outside of the National Parks in order to give you a more immersive experience. The second includes staying in three stunning luxury lodges, from a rustic-luxe lodge nestled on the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater, to an award-winning retreat overlooking the Serengeti plains.

We are able to tailor make any safari to Tanzania for you.  See our AfricaSky dedicated site for more options.
