4-Day Serengeti & Ngorongoro Crater Wildlife Safari
This 4-day African safari, featuring Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, and Ngorongoro Crater, is designed to provide a concentrated yet exhilarating Tanzanian Northern Circuit experience over 4 days and 3 nights. You’ll enjoy thrilling game viewing in three of Tanzania’s most stunning national parks.
Day 1-Arusha to Tarangire National Park
Begin your journey by heading from Arusha to Tarangire National Park, your driver-guide will greet you for a short briefing before proceeding with safari for a wildlife drive. The park runs along the Tarangire River and features gently rolling hills situated on the Great Rift Valley floor. The natural flora is dominated by acacia woodlands and massive African baobab trees, alongside large swampy regions in the southern part. In Tanzania’s dry season, the river and swamps become a magnet for abundant wildlife. Tarangire National Park is famous for hosting some of Africa’s biggest elephant herds and shelters three rare species: the greater kudu, fringed-eared oryx, and ashy starling. You’ll have a picnic lunch and carry on with the game drive until the evening hours. Later, you’ll travel to Karatu Safari Camp to spend the night.

The area is notable for its dense populations of predators like lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and elusive leopards that often need a keen eye to see.
