Tour Overview

Tanzania is famous for its wildlife, with large numbers of animals and birds, so your safari will give you plenty to talk about. If you like comfort but don't need luxury, this 3 Days Tanzania Mid-Range Safari gets the balance right: good wildlife, great scenery and comfortable places to stay at a fair price, and it still feels like a real Tanzanian safari.

After a day out in the wild, you come back to a comfortable, well-equipped room that has what you need, all at a mid-range price.

This 3-day Tanzania mid-range safari takes you to two of Tanzania's best-known places: Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. It's a short trip that puts the focus on wildlife, in Africa's most famous park and in what's often called the world's largest intact caldera, with comfortable mid-range lodges along the way.

  • Serengeti National Park: You start in the Serengeti, known for its endless grass plains. The name comes from the Maasai word for them. It's home to the Great Migration of about two million wildebeest and has some of Africa's highest numbers of predators, such as lions, leopards and cheetahs, so the game viewing is usually excellent. You'll stay in a cozy mid-range lodge or tented camp.
  • Ngorongoro Conservation Area: You finish at the Ngorongoro Crater, a 265 sq. km caldera with 600m walls and up to 30,000 animals. Look for rhinos, elephants and the rest of the Big Five, then rest in a comfortable mid-range lodge near the crater rim.

What Our Travelers Say About Our Tours

  • Highly Experienced and Wonderful Crew

    The 7 days Lemosho route Kilimanjaro trek exceeded our expectations. The route is so beautiful and we enjoyed tackling the mountain with experienced guides - Bakari and Nickson. They were supportive from start to finish in all the aspects of the trek, starting with the technical strategy on the speed, rests and ensuring that we were healthy through regular checks.

  • Absolutely Beautiful Memories For My Family

    Traveling with my 6 members of my family of ages between 8 and 73 is always a complex task with many moving parts. We had to arrange for Mama and Poppas dietary restrictions, accommodations, easy access for Mama and off-course places with a pool and kids activities for Lil Poppa and his teenage sister Anna.

  • The Best Experience Absolutely

    We could not have asked for a better experience on Kilimanjaro. Everything about this trip with this local operator was top notch. Starting with the booking with Naick who made it smooth and easy with his timely responses and advice. Payment was easy and they took care of all the logistics that all we had to do was present ourselves at the KIA.
