Budget safari

On this day we suggest a very early wake up in order to do an early morning game drive (when the animals are more active) and see one of the best sunrises you’ll ever witness. After the game drive, we return to the camp/ lodge for a rewarding brunch and then we’ll proceed to Ngorongoro, the 8th wonder of the Natural World.

The crater spreads for 102 sq. miles and has 2.000 ft. high walls, making it virtually a Noah’s ark and inhabiting almost every species of wildlife that is indigenous to East Africa. It’s one of the very rare locations in the whole continent where you can witness the black Rhino. The crater has a river, several swamps, and a soda lake with a great concentration of flamingos, a forest and open plains.

It’s also famous for its elephants which, are the largest in the world and have huge tusks. Ngorongoro Crater is truly a Wonder of the Natural World. Later in the evening you will drive to SIMBA CAMPSITE in Ngorongoro for an overnight.

After breakfast you will drive to Lake Natron that is wild and remote. It is situated at the base of Africa’s only active volcano, Oldoinyo Lengai, which is known as the Mountain of God to the local Maasai people. 

The area around Lake Natron contains some of the most harsh and amazing scenery in Africa. It is utterly breathtaking for those clients who choose to travel off the beaten path.

Together with your guide, you will be accompanied by a local Maasai guide and walk up to the Engero Sero Waterfalls. Winding up through the shady gorge, you will reach a beautiful natural swimming pool surrounded by steep rock walls showered by cascading spring water where you will have the opportunity to swim.

Dinner and overnight at Natron Campsite.

Today, you will venture deeper into the world-famous Serengeti on a full-day game drive.

Dinner and overnight at Seronera Public Campsite.

Early morning at 05.45, take your breakfast box and proceed for sunrise game drive until 09.00 am drive back to the camp to take your luggage and picnic lunch box drive into the Ngorongoro Crater for game drive.

The crater is 20km in diameter, 600m high and is the largest intact crater in the world. An estimated 30,000 large mammals live in the crater, which features a Salt Lake at its center. This is one of the most densely populated wildlife areas in the world! The Maasai people live together in harmony with the animals that also call this place home.

From the edge you will look out over the impressive crater and all of its wonderful inhabitants. In late afternoon we will drive back to Karatu/Arusha or flight to Zanzibar or Home

After some breakfast, you will depart the Campsite with a picnic lunch and descend into the amazing Ngorongoro Crater. Explore the magnificent world of diversity that lies within, surrounded by the imposing walls that encircle the reserve.

It is possible to see all of Africa’s big five within the crater among a vast array of other wildlife including hundreds of bird species. Enjoy a full day in the crater before departing for Arusha in the late afternoon for Dinner and Overnight

After breakfast we head towards the Serengeti National Park, via the beautiful high lying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leaving the highlands behind, we descend into the heart of wild Africa – the Serengeti National Park – with its endless plains, rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see.

We head to the central park area, known as the Seronera area, one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park, featuring the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife well representative of most of the Serengeti’s species. We arrive in time for lunch and enjoy an afternoon game drive in Serengeti National Park.
Dinner and overnight at Serengeti Public Campsite.
