Tour Over View:
If you find yourself constrained to a mere three days yet yearning to immerse yourself in Tanzania's famed parks, including Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater. This specially crafted tour is designed with you in mind. Although spending just one night in the Serengeti might seem concise, it represents the perfect choice for optimizing your time in this extraordinary park, especially given your limited schedule.
Tour itinerary:
DAY 1; ARUSHA TO SERENGETI
Following an early breakfast, your journey from Arusha commences towards the renowned Serengeti National Park, often heralded as the most famous national park globally. While the drive may be lengthy, it offers breathtaking scenery. En route, you'll have a brief stop at the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater provides an awe-inspiring view, an unforgettable moment for first-time visitors.
As you venture deeper into the Serengeti, the meaning of its name, "endless plains" in the local language, becomes evident. With its vast expanse spanning 6,900 square miles (18,000 square kilometers), the plains seem to stretch endlessly to the horizon, challenging your perception of distance. This park serves as the backdrop for the iconic great migration, with two million wildebeests, hundreds of thousands of zebras, and various antelope species, including impalas and Thomson's gazelles, dotting the landscape, overnight at Matawi serengeti camp.
DAY 2; CENTRAL SERENGETI.
After you have breakfast early at 6:30 a.m., you'll go on a drive to see lots of animals until the afternoon. Then, you'll head to a picnic spot for lunch and get everything packed up. As you leave Serengeti, you'll have another fun drive about a 2-hour drive near the edge of Ngorongoro Crater. You'll spend the night at Ngorongoro Rhino Lodge.
DAY 3; NGORONGORO CRATER.
After you have breakfast early in the morning, at around 6:15 a.m., you'll go down into the crater to try and find the elusive black rhino. They're the trickiest to spot in this stunning place because the other animals are more visible on the crater floor.
After you've had lunch, you'll continue your wildlife adventure in Ngorongoro Crater with another drive. Later on, you'll head back to Arusha.

3 days joining safari midrange
Essential items to pack for a Tanzania safari include lightweight and breathable clothing, comfortable walking shoes, a hat, sunscreen, insect repellent, binoculars, a camera, and any necessary medications. It's also advisable to pack layers for cooler mornings and evenings, as well as a waterproof jacket in case of rain.
Tanzania is known for its diverse wildlife. On a safari, you can expect to see animals such as lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, buffaloes, leopards, cheetahs, rhinos (in a few select areas), hippos, crocodiles, and a variety of antelope species. Birdlife is also abundant in Tanzania.
The best time for a safari in Tanzania depends on what you want to see and experience. The dry season from June to October is popular as wildlife congregates around water sources. The wildebeest migration usually takes place from December to July. However, different parks have different peak seasons, so it's advisable to research specific regions and their seasonal patterns.
Yes, most visitors to Tanzania require a visa. You can obtain a visa in advance from a Tanzanian embassy or consulate, or you can get a visa on arrival at the airport or border entry points. It's recommended to check the visa requirements and application process beforehand to ensure a smooth entry into the country.
Tanzania offers a range of accommodations to suit different preferences and budgets. Options include luxury lodges, tented camps, mobile camps, and budget-friendly campsites. Some lodges and camps are located inside the national parks, while others are situated in private concessions adjacent to the parks.
Tanzania is generally considered safe for tourists, including safari-goers. However, it's always advisable to exercise caution and follow the guidance of your tour operator or guide. Be aware of your surroundings, listen to instructions, and take necessary precautions to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
The duration of your safari depends on your interests and the specific areas you wish to visit. Many people opt for a 4- to 7-day safari, which allows for a good wildlife experience in multiple parks. However, it's also possible to extend your safari and combine it with other attractions, like the beaches of Zanzibar or cultural visits.
