5-Day Nature Camping Safari Tarangire Crater Serengeti

After breakfast, your safari guide will pick you up from your accommodation, and you'll begin your drive to Tarangire National Park, which takes about two and a half hours on well-maintained tarmac roads. The park is named after the Tarangire River, the primary water source for wildlife during the dry season. Known for its large elephant families, you may also spot giraffes, bushbucks, hartebeests, and a variety of predators, including lions and leopards. Tarangire is home to more breeding bird species than anywhere else on Earth.

The park is also famous for its ancient Baobab trees, some of which are over a thousand years old. Enjoy a picnic lunch at a designated spot inside the park before continuing your game drive. Afterward, you'll head to your campsite an overnight stay.

Then, you'll continue your journey through the conservation area towards the Serengeti, entering from the southern side of the park.

The Serengeti is renowned for its vast open grasslands, offering exceptional wildlife sightings. While it’s home to abundant wildlife, the Serengeti is especially famous for the annual Great Migration, where massive herds of wildebeest, zebra, and antelope move in search of fresh grazing. Depending on the time of year, you may have the chance to witness one of the "Seven Wonders of the Natural World."

Enjoy a picnic lunch in the park, followed by a night spent at a campsite in the heart of the bush, immersing you in the true wilderness experience.
