Experience the best of northern Tanzania’s wildlife and landscapes with our 3-Day Tarangire, Manyara & Ngorongoro Camping Safari. This safari offers close encounters with elephants, lions, flamingos, and a variety of other wildlife while staying in comfortable camping sites within the national parks.
Day 1: Tarangire National Park Safari
Start your journey early from Arusha or your chosen location and drive to Tarangire National Park, famous for its large elephant herds and iconic baobab trees. Enjoy a full-day game drive as you spot zebras, giraffes, wildebeest, and a variety of bird species. The park’s quiet landscapes offer excellent photography opportunities, especially during the dry season when wildlife gathers around the Tarangire River.
By late afternoon, check into the designated camping site within or near the park. Dinner is served at the camp, and you can relax under the stars while enjoying the natural sounds of the African bush.
Day 2: Lake Manyara National Park Exploration
After breakfast, depart for Lake Manyara National Park, known for its tree-climbing lions and vibrant birdlife. Spend the day exploring the park’s diverse habitats, including the alkaline lake, acacia woodlands, and dense forests. Keep an eye out for hippos, baboons, and the colorful flamingos that often line the lake’s shores.
In the evening, drive towards the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and set up camp near the crater rim. Enjoy dinner and prepare for an early morning adventure into the crater.
Day 3: Ngorongoro Crater Safari
Begin your day with a hearty breakfast before heading into the Ngorongoro Crater, one of the most famous wildlife destinations in Tanzania. Descend into the crater for a full-day game drive, encountering lions, elephants, buffalo, and rhinos in a stunning volcanic landscape. The crater’s unique ecosystem provides opportunities to see a wide range of species in a single day.
Return to the campsite or Arusha in the late afternoon, marking the end of your 3-day adventure.
