UNCOVER TANZANIA ‘S WILD SIDE : 6-DAY SAFARI EXPERIENCE overview
Embark on an unforgettable 6-day Tanzania safari through some of Northern Tanzania’s most remarkable wildlife destinations. From the elephant-filled landscapes of Tarangire to the extraordinary natural setting of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the endless plains of Serengeti National Park, this journey brings together wildlife, landscapes and authentic safari experiences in one carefully planned adventure.
Begin your safari in Tarangire National Park, renowned for its impressive elephant herds, iconic baobab trees and diverse wildlife. During the dry season, wildlife is often drawn toward the Tarangire River, creating rewarding opportunities for game viewing.
Continue to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, home to the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater. Descend into the crater for a game drive surrounded by dramatic volcanic scenery and a remarkable concentration of wildlife. The area adds a unique combination of conservation, landscapes and wildlife to your safari.
Your journey then continues into Serengeti National Park, Tanzania’s legendary wilderness and one of the world’s most celebrated safari destinations. Explore its vast plains on game drives in search of lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest and other wildlife. The Serengeti is also central to the annual movements of wildebeest and zebra known as the Great Migration, although the location of the herds changes throughout the year.
With six days available, the itinerary allows you to experience these destinations at a more comfortable pace, with opportunities for both longer game drives and time to appreciate the landscapes beyond the wildlife sightings.
