Begin your adventure in Arusha or Moshi and discover the diverse wildlife and landscapes of Tanzania on this exciting four-day safari. This itinerary suits travelers eager to experience Tanzania’s rich natural beauty with a focus on Mikumi National Park and the iconic Ngorongoro Crater.
Your journey starts in Mikumi National Park, known for its expansive savannahs, large herds of elephants, lions, giraffes, and diverse birdlife. Then, explore the unparalleled Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site teeming with wildlife including the Big Five in a breathtaking volcanic caldera.
Over four days, experience a fascinating contrast of ecosystems—from Mikumi’s open plains to the crater’s lush caldera—offering you unforgettable wildlife encounters and spectacular scenery.
Designed for 2025–2026 visitors, this itinerary combines expert guiding, comfortable accommodations, and immersive safari experiences.
Depart from Arusha or Moshi and drive through scenic landscapes to Mikumi National Park. Over the first two days, enjoy thrilling game drives in this lesser-known gem of Tanzania, often compared to the Serengeti for its wide-open savannahs. Encounter elephants, giraffes, lions, zebras, wildebeests, and more in their natural habitats. Your experienced guide will take you to the Mkata floodplain and other hotspots for maximum wildlife sightings. Optional evening walks or village visits can be arranged based on your preferences.
On Day 3, travel to the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater—a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most wildlife-rich areas on Earth. Descend into the crater for a full-day game drive where you’ll have a chance to spot the Big Five, including the rare black rhino. Enjoy a scenic picnic lunch near the hippo pool. On Day 4, depending on your departure plans, you may visit a Maasai village before heading back to Arusha or Moshi.
