This 4-day Tanzania Safari takes you to three of the most famous wildlife destinations in Africa—Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, and the Ngorongoro Crater. It is designed for travelers who want to see the best wildlife, witness world-class landscapes, and enjoy a classic African safari experience in a short time.
Your journey begins in Tarangire, the land of giant elephants, thousand-year-old baobab trees, and peaceful river valleys. Here you will see large herds of elephants, lions hiding in the tall grass, and many colorful birds. From Tarangire, you will continue to the endless plains of Serengeti, home to the Great Migration and the Big Five. The Serengeti is full of wildlife action—hunting lions, running wildebeests, grazing zebras, and beautiful sunset views over the savannah.
The adventure ends in the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site often called the Garden of Eden because of its stunning beauty and high number of animals living in a small, natural volcanic bowl. You will have a great chance to see black rhinos, lions, elephants, buffalo, hippos, hyenas, and many more.
With comfortable lodges or luxury camps, professional safari guides, and well-planned game drives, this safari offers unforgettable memories and a true taste of Tanzania’s natural wonders.
Your safari begins early in the morning as your guide picks you up from your hotel in Arusha. After a briefing, you will drive to Tarangire National Park, a beautiful wilderness known for its huge elephant population. As you enter the park, you will see large herds of elephants walking slowly under the shade of giant baobab trees—the symbol of Tarangire.
Your game drive continues along the Tarangire River, the main water source for animals, especially during the dry season. You may see lions, leopards, giraffes, buffaloes, zebras, wildebeests, warthogs, and many species of birds. Tarangire is also famous for tree-climbing pythons and rare animals like the fringe-eared oryx and kudu.
In the afternoon, you will stop for a picnic lunch inside the park before continuing your game drive. Later, you will head to your lodge where you will relax, enjoy dinner, and prepare for the next day’s journey.

When you enter the Serengeti, you will find yourself in the heart of Africa’s most famous park—wide open plains filled with animals. Depending on the season, you may witness parts of the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles move in search of fresh grass.
Your afternoon game drive will take you across the endless plains as you search for lions, cheetahs, elephants, crocodiles, hyenas, giraffes, hippos, and hundreds of bird species. Your guide will stop at beautiful viewpoints where you can take photos of the landscape and wildlife.

After the game drive, you will return to the camp for breakfast. Later, you will continue with another short game drive as you make your way toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. On the way, you may stop at interesting points like Maasai bomas (optional) or viewpoints overlooking the crater.
