4-Day Budget Tanzania Safari Package: Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire Honeymoon Safari

4 Days Arusha, Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater Serengeti Wildlife Safari 5.0/5 from 9 reviews

Overview

Over 4 days, this route takes in the safari gateway town of Arusha, where most Northern Circuit trips begin and end; Tarangire, where dry-season elephant concentrations along the river rival anywhere else in East Africa; the Serengeti's endless plains, home to the largest overland wildlife migration on Earth and year-round predator activity; and Ngorongoro Crater, whose crater floor supports dense wildlife including one of Tanzania's few remaining black rhino populations at the budget comfort level.

Accommodation throughout is budget camping or basic guesthouse-style accommodation, with a shared 4x4 safari vehicle and driver-guide. This tier is for travelers who want the full safari circuit at the lowest realistic price point, without sacrificing a qualified guide or the core game drives.

This version of the route is arranged for couples, prioritizing camps known for private, romantic settings and building in unhurried time at each stop rather than a packed schedule.
