The Serengeti is a great place to visit any time of year and for those with a little more time, this is possible on a 5 days safari. You will also visit Tanzania’s most popular national parks: Ngorongoro, your best chance of seeing the Big Five, and also the opportunity to visit the Olduvai Gorge, one of the most important paleoanthropological sites in the world. Tarangire is fantastic for bird lovers and also for its high density of elephants. Lake Manyara, home to a large number of baboons and also the famous tree-climbing lions, is unique to this park.

Day 1

Arusha- Tarangire

After breakfast, drive to Tarangire National Park, enjoy a full-day game drive with a picnic lunch. The park consists of natural vegetation mainly of Acacia woodland and giant African Baobab trees, with huge swamp areas in the south. Both the river and the swamps act like a magnet for wild animals, during Tanzania's dry season. The Tarangire National Park is reputed to contain some of the largest elephant herds in Africa. This African National Park is also home to three rare species of animals - the Greater Kudu, the Fringed-eared Oryx, as well as a few Ashy Starlings. Dinner and overnight at Octagon Lodge Meals plan: Lunch, Dinner, and Breakfast.

Day 2

Tarangire - Serengeti

After breakfast, we head towards the Serengeti National Park, via the beautiful high lying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leaving the highlands behind, we descend into the heart of wild Africa - the Serengeti National Park - with its endless plains, rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see. We head to the central park area, known as the Seronera area, one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park, featuring the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife well representative of most of the Serengeti's species. Dinner and overnight at Tukaone Tented Camp Meals plan: Lunch, Dinner, and Breakfast

Day 3

Serengeti (Full Day)

After breakfast, have a full-day game drive in the park, lunch at the lodge /campsite. The park has an endless plain which is a home for lions, leopards, elephants, cheetah, buffalo, wildebeest migration, eland, wild dog, gazelle, crocodiles, and many more. Also, you will enjoy a variety of birds that decorate the park with different sounds. Dinner and overnight at Tukaone Tented Camp Meals plan: Lunch, Dinner, and Breakfast

Day 4

Serengeti – Ngorongoro

Enjoy early breakfast, have a morning game drive, Then we depart to Ngorongoro Conservation area with game drive en route. Dinner and overnight at Octagon Lodge Meals plan: Lunch, Dinner, and Breakfast.

Day 5

Ngorongoro Crater

After breakfast, you descend into the crater, enjoy a game drive in the crater. The Ngorongoro Crater is one of the most densely crowded African wildlife areas in the world and is home to an estimated 30,000 animals including some of Tanzania's last remaining black rhinos. Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the crater supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park is its huge population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopard. We will enjoy a picnic lunch on the crater floor. Late afternoon drive back to Arusha

Mikumi National Park 2 days 1 night Safari My safari was awesome! I went as a solo female traveler and felt safe the entire time. The accommodations were great beyond my expectations. My guide was so knowledgeable and we saw so many animals!! Lions, zebras, wildebeests, buffalo, giraffe, hippos - it was one of the best experiences I’ve had in Tanzania.

Unbeatable Safari Adventure with Safari Mika Matata Review Safari Mika Matata in Tanzania delivered big time! Travelled with friends and it was an absolute blast. We saw a stunning array of wildlife – lions, leopards, elephants, and more. Each sighting was thrilling. The visit to the Masai village was a real eye-opener and a unique cultural experience. Accommodations at the camp were comfortable and cozy, perfectly blending into the surroundings. A huge shout out to our driver, Rama, for his impressive driving skills and making us feel at home in the wild. For a memorable safari adventure, Safari Mika Matata is the go-to!

Epic Safari Experience!! Just got back from a safari in Tanzania with Safari Mika Matata, and it was epic! Traveling with friends, we saw it all - lions, leopards, elephants, you name it. The highlight? Visiting a Masai village, a total once-in-a-lifetime thing. The camp where we stayed was top-notch. Comfy and close to nature, it hit the sweet spot. And our driver, Rama? Guy’s a legend. Knew the land like the back of his hand and had a sixth sense for spotting wildlife. In short, if you’re planning a safari, Safari Mika Matata is the way to go. Great vibes, amazing sights, and a feel-like-home kind of experience. Highly recommend! 🌍🐾

5 days safari with 2 national parks with Moja Matata. Safari Moya Matata team is highly recommended. We spent 5 days/4 nights on the mainland from Zanzibar (Nungwi). Everything was perfectly organized at our request. That means taxi from the Hotel Tanzanite to Stone Town, ferry ticket there and back, pick-up from the port of Dar es Salaam and round trip with a visit to Nyerere National Park (former Selous Game Reserve) and Mikumi National Park. Our drivers Matata and Bugussa, and Bastian our guide were very helpful. We got to know Tanzania and felt safe and well looked after. We would be happy to travel with this agency again. Sigrid and Peter

Wonderful places but agency not recommended! My partner and I had a terrible experience with this agency. We contacted the guide Thomas Pius and his driver Juma Mbasi for an 8 day safari. We left from Arusha and crossed the main parks of northern Tanzania including the Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Natron. The sites and animals are wonderful, in particular we were struck by the landscapes of Lake Natron which certainly deserved a few more days of stopping.. Unfortunately, after having paid for the safari before leaving, Thomas Pius showed up with a very old Toyota Prado, saying that it was the only car he had available. The vehicle had major problems with the brakes, shock absorbers, the windows were blocked and it was fitted with very worn tyres. In fact it broke several times during the safari. After a while the brakes started to leak oil and we were about to crash while going down a hill. Finally the engine caught fire and we were left stranded. It was a very dangerous situation, so much so that upon returning to Arusha we went to the Tourist Police to file a complaint. It was a real shame because in this way we ruined the trip. Thomas Pius promised us compensation but it never arrived. I therefore advise against this agency to everyone.

MATATA IS THE NUMBER ONE!! We met someone we will never forget! Matata is truly the NUMBER ONE! He was very helpful and kind to us! But I want to focus on the Safari: Matata gave us unique experiences, explaining with great passion everything we encountered and teaching us many things! When he saw a lion, he did everything to show it to us up close and knew exactly where to find the animals! I highly recommend him, and I would love to go back to Tanzania just to see Matata again! You absolutely must rely on him.
