This Safari In Tanzania was designed as a quest to see the legendary Big Five! Our 7 Days Big Five Safaris In Tanzania is by far our most unique safari - giving you the best chance of spotting Africa's most iconic animals. In your pursuit of lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos, and cape buffalo you'll travel through Ngorongoro crater – known as the eighth wonder of the world and the world-famous Serengeti National Park. Along the way, you'll also see enormous herds of wildebeest and zebra, the majestic giraffe, wallowing hippopotamus, lean cheetahs, opportunistic hyenas, playful monkeys, and so much more.
Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) you will be met and transferred to Moshi / Arusha to recover from your journey and, if you’re lucky, to catch a glimpse of the spectacular Kilimanjaro which rises from the clouds above town.
Overnight Moshi/Arusha
This morning you will commence your drive from Arusha to one of the most famous game parks in Africa, the Serengeti taking approx. 4 hours. Here is home to millions of wildebeest during the migration and over the huge flat plains you are likely to find lion, cheetah, leopard, hyena and many other small predators. Enjoy an on-route game drive to your camp and the experience of sleeping in the middle of the Serengeti. You will spend the next few days exploring the endless plains of Serengeti, the great wildebeest migration and looking for the BIG 5.
Overnight in Serengeti
An early morning start in the Serengeti to try and find cats before they retreat from the blazing sun during the day. After a few hours of game, drive travel to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area where you will overnight. The Ngorongoro caldera is the largest unflooded and unbroken caldera in the world. At approximately 20 kilometers across and 600 meters deep, the Ngorongoro Crater is a breath-taking natural wonder.

We spent an incredible 10 days and 9 nights exploring the stunning landscapes of Tarangire, Central and Northern Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area – it was truly a dream come true for us, and a trip we will never, ever forget!
African Scenic Safaris was recommended to us by someone who has gone with them twice over the past several years. We recently returned from a 9-day safari and five days in Zanzibar. From start to finish, our experience with them was great.
My friend and I had an absolutely AMAZING experience with African Scenic! From the fantastic coordination provided by our agent Nembris to the amazing guides on our 7-day Machame trek on Kili Godwin and Gadiel (Double G 😁)
