About this tour

This is a 6 Days Tanzania Safari experience that will introduce you to the wonders of African Adventure. This tour will take you to the northern Tanzania's famous national park, Tarangire, Ngrongoro and Serengeti National Park. Join us to your lifetime adventure. This 6-day budget tour takes you to Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater. Tarangire is known for its elephant herds and baobab trees. The Serengeti brings big-cat country, endless plains and, in season, the great herds of wildebeest and zebra. The Ngorongoro Crater is a volcanic caldera with a very high density of wildlife, including black rhino. Your driver-guide meets you on arrival, travels with you throughout, and handles park fees and logistics, so you can concentrate on the wildlife.

You will wake early and start your journey to the unique Tarangire National Park. One of the last untouched places on earth, the park is famous for its huge herds of elephants against a stunning backdrop of majestic, ancient Baobab trees. Between November and June, many of Tarangire’s larger residents follow the rains to greener pastures. Wildebeest and zebras join elephants, buffalo and giraffes to form a wildlife migration second only to the Serengeti/Maasai Mara phenomenon

There are large populations of impala, giraffe, eland and buffalo. Thompson’s gazelle, hartebeest, bohor reedbuck and both the greater and lesser kudu are also in abundance here. In terms of predators, lion prides are common throughout Tarangire, as are leopards and spotted hyena. Packs of wild dogs sometimes pass through as well.

After a day spent exploring Tarangire, you will head to your camp for dinner and overnight rest.

Today’s tour departs around 6am in search of nocturnal predators returning from their night’s hunting or animals waking up in the early dawn. Breakfast boxes will be prepared and you will take a brief stop for a bush breakfast to enjoy the sun rise. Next, your drive will continue to look for prides of lions, cheetahs and leopards, all in abundance in the Serengeti. You will learn the history of the park as we pass by the information centre in the Seronera area, before returning to your lodge for a relaxed lunch and cold drinks.

Later in the afternoon, when the sun is less intense, you have the option to go on an early evening game drive or a nature walk around the camp with the resident tribesmen, who will be happy to share their knowledge of the regions’ plants and animals with you.

If you wish to maximise your time in the park, lunch can also be taken as a picnic – a long day but an experience you won’t forget.

4×4 Land Cruiser 3 meals

After an early breakfast, you will begin your journey to the stunning Ngorongoro Conservation Area. By lunchtime, you will be descending into the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, formed when a volcano exploded and collapsed in on itself 2-3 million years ago. You will enjoy your first game drive around the crater floor, stopping for a picnic lunch at one of the many scenic lunch spots. With its 2,000-foot-high walls, very few animals migrate in and out of the crater, making it an area with its one of the highest concentrations of wild animals in the world.

You’ll be searching for lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, hippos, flamingos, jackals, rhinos, antelopes and many rare birds you might even get to see the “Big Five” all in one day!

At around 6pm you will depart for your lodge perched on the edge of the crater rim. The rest of the evening can be spent relaxing and enjoying the spectacular views over this prehistoric landscape.

  • Danielle Loznic

    I had an unforgettable safari experience with Torias Adventures as my 1st choice in Tanzania. On the very first day, we spotted lions, and Guide dedication shone through on the second day when he tirelessly helped me find my favorite animal, the leopard. Amazingly, we saw leopards again on the third day! Our guide is not only gentle and emotionally steady but also an incredibly skilled driver, navigating the terrain with ease. His expertise and passion made the trip truly special. I highly recommend the company to anyone looking for an exceptional safari . Thank you for making my adventure so memorable

  • Amani M

    We shared a trip to venture a family trip with torias pride ,Lucy was very supportive and timely to our request .we as a family will highly recommended the company for any outdoor tours In Tanzania .

  • Edga L

    We had an incredibly super experience with a safari in Tanzania. We booked our trip through Toria’s Trip Adventure and Travel. The company helped us from when we landed at Kilimanjaro International Airport to the National Parks. The guide we had was warm and friendly. They attempted and managed to locate the animals for us. It was our lucky day. The places we visited were great. The day we spent a night sleeping in the tent, experiencing the sense of being mixed up with wilderness/nature when we could hear the birds, animals, blowing winds and many more. I would recommend this company. I am looking forward to go back in Tanzania next time.

  • Dominik

    Absolutely great implementation of our own travel wishes: Torias Pride made a four-day transfer from Mwanza to Kilimanjaro Airport, with safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. The car was very well equipped and the driver incredibly good at tracking the animals. Where many other safari vehicles just drove on, he stopped and showed us animals that were not visible at first sight. And I'm not talking about birds and small animals, but about lion pairs and the like. The lodges and hotels selected by Torias Pride were consistently of high quality with very good service. We enjoyed the tour very much, very much again!

  • EXPatinhoGOL

    An exceptional safari, organized with precision and effectiveness by the talented Lucy and the staff of Torias. We relied on them at the suggestion of local people and we were extremely satisfied: the tour allowed us to visit, in a week, three parks - Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro - dedicating the right time for good game drives and, at the same time, appropriate relaxation. Our guide, Sadi, was more than a driver and a companion: he became a companion of adventure, whose knowledge and eyes ready to see lions even while he was engrossed in driving, taught us about the exceptional functioning of the savannah and its inhabitants. All the overnight stays were super: almost all of us (five nights out of six) were guests of the beautiful and functional TWC camps where we dined excellently and stayed in peace and security. What about it? I highly recommend relying on Torias to organize your safari: nothing will disappoint you
