4-Day Big Five Safari — Tarangire, Serengeti & Ngorongoro

Trip Overview

Here’s a classic 4-day Big Five safari in Tanzania that takes you through three of the most iconic wildlife regions — Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, and the Ngorongoro Crater — with excellent opportunities to see the Big Five (elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo, and rhino) along the way.

Details Itinerary

Day 1: Airport/Arusha - Tarangire National Park

Our Safari Guide from our office will pick you up from the Airport or hotel and drive to Tarangire National Park for the game drive for wildlife sighting while carrying lunch boxes. After your game drive, you will be transferred to your accommodation located in Karatu village where we stop for relaxation, dinner and overnight stay.

The Park is named after the Tarangire River which runs through it. This ‘river of warthogs’ is the only source of water for wildlife in the region during the dry season. The Park is well known for its elephant families, which can often be seen congregating by the river. You may also see giraffe, bushbuck, and hartebeest. These animals are closely followed by a range of predators, including lions and leopards. Lunch will be at a picnic site inside the Park.

Once the game drives are done, we will drive to your lodge for relaxation, dinner, and your overnight stay.

Day 2: Serengeti National Park

Get up early in the morning and enjoy breakfast after the breakfast, a tour guide will pick you up from the hotel while carrying lunch box, and drives you to Serengeti National Park for the full game drives and overnight.

Although the Serengeti is home to a wide variety of animals, including hippo, buffalo, crocodiles, and impala, it is most known for its massive migratory herds of antelope (half a million), wildebeest (one and a half million), and zebras (two hundred and fifty thousand). Rainfall determines the animals’ journey, which changes every year. In addition to the migratory herds, we might witness lions, cheetahs, and leopards.

Day 3: Serengeti - Karatu

Get up early in the morning and enjoy breakfast and after breakfast we will continue with game drives in Serengeti Park for wildlife sighting, then in the afternoon depart to Karatu Village for overnight at the accommodation located near Ngorongoro.

Day 4: Ngorongoro Crater - Airport

Get up early in the morning and enjoy breakfast and after breakfast, our safari guide will pick you up from the lodge and then depart to Ngorongoro for game drive inside Ngorongoro Crater for wildlife sighting while carrying lunch boxes. Once we finish the game drive we will transfer you to the Arusha or Airport where safari ends.

This Park appears to be a lost world when you first arrive to Ngorongoro Crater. There is a beautiful environment with shimmering lakes and wetlands, patches of acacia woodland, and broad savannah hidden behind the sheer volcanic walls. The Crater was formed two to three million years ago when a massive volcano exploded and fell in on itself. It’s well-known for its geological wonders as well as being a nature reserve that harbors some of the largest populations of huge mammals on the African continent. The journey into the Crater is an adventure in and of itself, and once you arrive at the bottom, you’ll soon be surrounded by over 500 different kinds of birds, zebras, gazelles, and wildebeest. The Crater provides you with the best chance of seeing the endangered black rhino, which can sometimes be spotted in the open grasslands
