3 Days / 2 Nights Safari – Tarangire, Ngorongoro & Serval Sanctuary

3 Days   from

$1330 USD / person

This special safari combines traditional game drives in Tarangire National Park and the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater with a unique visit to Serval Wildlife Sanctuary, a conservation-focused sanctuary where rescued and well-cared-for animals can be observed and interacted with up close.

In Tarangire National Park, you will experience vast savannahs dotted with ancient baobab trees and large herds of elephants, along with lions, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, and numerous bird species. The park is especially spectacular during the dry season when wildlife gathers around the Tarangire River, creating outstanding game-viewing opportunities.

In the Ngorongoro Crater, you will descend into a breathtaking natural wonder and one of the best places in Africa to see the Big Five. The crater floor supports a dense concentration of wildlife, including lions, elephants, buffaloes, leopards, and the endangered black rhino, all living within a stunning volcanic landscape of grasslands, lakes, and acacia woodlands.

At Serval Wildlife Sanctuary, you will enjoy a more intimate wildlife experience, where conservation and education are the focus. Here, you may get close encounters with serval cats and other rescued animals in a safe and ethical environment, learning more about wildlife protection and rehabilitation efforts.
