4-Day Classic Tanzania Safari

Overview

This 4-day safari offers an exciting journey through three of Tanzania’s most celebrated national parks—Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. Starting in Tarangire, you’ll encounter sweeping landscapes dotted with ancient baobab trees and large herds of elephants. The adventure continues to the Serengeti, where open plains stretch endlessly and are alive with wildlife, including lions, cheetahs, and—seasonally—the awe-inspiring Great Migration. The final leg takes you into the Ngorongoro Crater, a breathtaking natural amphitheater rich with diverse animal life, including rare black rhinos. With daily game drives, stunning scenery, and comfortable accommodations, this tour offers a perfect blend of nature, wildlife, and adventure in a short but immersive timeframe.
