Trip Informations
Why you’ll love this trip
Seek out the best wildlife viewing experiences while you explore the diverse Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater Conservation Area and Serengeti National Park on an exciting series of morning and afternoon 4WD game drives. Look out for zebras, elephants, lions, cheetahs, leopards, hyenas, hippos and more!
Spend two amazing nights at your Feature Stay in the heart of the Serengeti. With no fences, this open camp allows you to connect with your wild surroundings without sacrificing modern comforts.
Venture through the spectacular UNESCO World Heritage-listed Ngorongoro Crater in open top 4WD vehicles. Be astounded by a vast array of wildlife and enjoy a bush picnic lunch on the crater floor.
Stay at a diverse variety of accommodations to experience Tanzania uniquely. From tented camps in the heart of the Serengeti to cozy cottages on an active farm, these eco-lodges, camps and fine hotels will give you access to nature, wildlife and comfort in equal measure.
Get a glimpse of local life when you explore a farmers market and taste local in-season fruits, and learn all about coffee production on a tour in the Karatu highlands.
Is this trip right for you?
Purpose-built 4WDs are used for the duration of the trip. This itinerary features some long travel days, which can be exacerbated by bumpy African roads. It is recommended that you pay close attention to the given approximations of driving hours.
As the early bird catches the worm, the early camper sights the animals. There will be many early starts either to make use of the better safari time or to beat the morning traffic on long travel days.

This was an amazing Safari, It ticked all boxes and went beyond any of my expections. It was marred only by the post tour arrangements organised by Intrepid Travel, at our request on booking, was discovered to be excessive in cost.

The Premium Tanzania trip was excellent and I could not fault it in any way! The accommodation was amazing and the inclusions were just right. We were so lucky and saw so much wildlife! A perfect option if you are looking for a shorter trip in Africa.

The Premium Tanzania trip was amazing. Our guide was brilliant and the accommodation especially the tented accommodation was an amazing experience. We got very lucky with our Safari drives but was in part created by the skills of the drivers. The drives are very manageable. The food was amazing. Overall highly recommend the tour.
