Finding The Big Five
4
Days Tanzania Safari
Safari Overview
Join Tanzania Safari on this 4-day private camping/lodge safari to get a first glimpse of Tanzania’s highlights. During 4×4 game drives explore to the legendary Ngorongoro Crater and be on the look-out for Africa’s “Big Five”. This short 4-day safari can be done all year round. It is perfect for travelers who want to come across a large variety of wildlife but only have limited time. To avoid long transfers, this safari puts a focus on the Ngorongoro Crater as they are all within two-hour of Arusha. We purposely exclude Serengeti National Park as it is too far away and would take up too much time during a 4-day safari.
