About this tour

A 6-day budget camping safari begins with a warm pick-up from Kilimanjaro International Airport and an easy transfer to Arusha, where you settle in and prepare for your adventure. The journey starts at Lake Manyara National Park, a lush haven known for its tree-climbing lions, pink-tinted flamingo shores, and diverse wildlife thriving along the lakeside forest. From here, you continue to the vast Serengeti, spending two unforgettable days exploring its endless plains, home to lions, cheetahs, elephants, and-season permitting-the iconic Great Migration herds. Evenings are spent at comfortable public campsites, enjoying simple meals under the African sky. The experience continues to the Ngorongoro Crater, a breathtaking natural amphitheater sheltering an incredible density of wildlife, including black rhinos, massive bull elephants, and abundant predators. After an enriching crater tour, you ascend the rim and drive back to Arusha, reflecting on days filled with raw nature, thrilling encounters, and classic camping safari charm—an affordable yet truly immersive Tanzanian wilderness experience.
