3 Days Private Budget Safari in Tanzania from Zanzibar

Day 1. After an early breakfast at your hotel, we’ll pick you up between 6:00 AM and 7:00 AM for your journey to Serengeti National Park. This world-famous park is known for its vast, undulating plains and is home to an incredible array of wildlife, including the legendary Big Five—lions, elephants, buffalo, leopards, and rhinoceros. The Serengeti is also home to the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles move in a circular motion across the plains in search of fresh grazing areas, an event that is nothing short of spectacular. A picnic lunch in the park keeps you energized as you explore more of Serengeti’s diverse ecosystems. As the sun sets, head to a budget campsite or lodge for dinner and an overnight stay, surrounded by the sounds of the wild.

On Day 2 of your adventure, you'll begin with an exciting early morning game drive in the world-renowned Serengeti National Park, known for its vast plains and incredible wildlife. As the sun rises, you'll have the chance to spot the Big Five, cheetahs, zebras, and wildebeests, among many other species. If you're seeking a unique experience, consider taking a hot air balloon safari at dawn for an unforgettable aerial view of the Serengeti's beauty. After an action-packed morning, you'll enjoy a relaxing lunch at one of the park's lodges before embarking on a scenic drive toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, a journey of about 3 to 4 hours. Upon arrival in the evening, you'll settle into your accommodation, where you can unwind and take in the breathtaking views of the surrounding landscapes. Whether it's a visit to a Maasai village or a peaceful evening under the stars, the day offers both adventure and tranquility, making it a perfect blend of Tanzania's natural beauty.

Start your day with an early morning game drive in Serengeti, catching the sunrise and the park’s wildlife at its most active. After breakfast, depart for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, descending into the crater for a thrilling game drive in this UNESCO World Heritage Site. Home to the Big Five, including the rare black rhino, as well as hippos, zebras, and flamingos, the crater offers an incredible safari experience. After the game drive, we will ascend from the crater and begin our journey back to Arusha. The drive will take about 4-5 hours, with a stop for lunch along the way. We will return to Arusha in the afternoon, where the tour ends. You can choose to stay for an extra night in the city or catch a flight back to Zanzibar at your own cost.
