Trip Overview

Awarded as “Africa’s leading destination 2025” by WTA (World Travel Awards), Tanzania features serene vast plains, gorgeous starlit skies, vibrant grasslands, and majestic mountains! 

Besides these spectacular factors, this East African nation also offers a few of the world’s most renowned national parks, like the Serengeti and Tarangire, as well as the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater Floor. 

You’ll kickstart this 6-Day Tanzania Wildlife Tour by going on an unforgettable full day game drive in Tarangire National Park, famed for its striking natural scenery, large elephant population, and scenic baobab trees. 

From your safari vehicle, you might be able to spot animals like African bush elephants, spotted hyenas, Masai giraffes, olive baboons, lions, leopards, and Cape buffaloes in their natural habitat roaming often just a few feet away from you!

Next, you’ll stop by Serengeti National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that spans across a staggering 14,763 square kilometers! Known particularly for the Great Migration, this park boasts Tanzania’s most unique natural landscapes and wildlife species. 

Catch a glimpse of the Big 5, witness predator-prey interaction, drive past endless savannah fields, and see big cats like cheetahs/leopards nap on tree branches. Wherever you look, Serengeti will leave you enchanted at every glance!

Your tour will conclude by visiting the Ngorongoro Crater Floor, which sits on the top of every wildlife photographer’s dream destination. Predators like lions, spotted hyenas, and bat-eared foxes can be commonly found here along with herds of buffaloes, elephants, and wildebeest, offering you plenty of opportunities for those close encounters and candid photography moments.

Experience the Unique Wildlife of Tarangire National Park

Your tour begins in Tarangire National Park, known for its high concentration of African elephants, unforgettable natural landscapes, ancient baobab trees, and diverse wildlife species. 

Home to a staggering 550 bird species, the beauty of this destination will take your breath away, as it consists of a range of natural landscapes from savannah plains to acacia woodlands and seasonal swamps. 

Established in 1970, the name of the park is derived from the Tarangire River situated in the northern zone, which attracts a variety of wildlife, especially during the dry season. Other animals that can generally be caught sight during game drives include the 4 of the Big 5 (except rhinos) along with wildebeest, zebras, spotted hyenas, and cheetahs. 

Additionally, this attraction also boasts an extensive variety of birds like the martial eagle, lilac-breasted roller, African fish eagle, and grey-crowned crane, usually found in the grassland and woodland regions of the park.

Track the Big Five Across the Famous Serengeti Plains

Declared an UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1981, the Serengeti National Park is another destination covered on this tour. It’s one of Tanzania’s most prized destinations, due to its Big 5 spotting, vibrant natural landscapes, and the Great Migration.

While the Great Migration occurs year round, the dry season (occurring June to October) offers the best opportunity to visit Serengeti, as massive herds of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles move across the Serengeti and Masai Mara ecosystems in search of food and water. The sight of these animals moving in staggering numbers is said to be a sight to behold!

One of the park’s most dangerous predators, which are the lions, is usually found in the Seronera Valley, Simba, Gol, and Moru Kopjes, as they provide the perfect habitat for hunting and resting.

Likewise, bird lovers will also find exploring Serengeti a rewarding experience, as it is believed to have estimated 500 species of birds! Be on the lookout for “Serengeti’s special birds”, which are birds that are found only in the national park and not anywhere else in the world, like grey throated spurfowl, Schalow's wheatear, red throated tit, and rufous-tailed weaver. 

Enjoy a Half Day Game Drive in Ngorongoro Crater Floor

Lastly, on this tour, you’ll be touring the Ngorongoro Crater Floor located inside the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Home to the Big 5 and other animal species (like wildebeest, zebras, hyenas, jackals, and waterbucks), the crater floor is another of Tanzania’s most prominent wildlife attraction destinations!

Lake Magadi, located here, is one of the destination's most spectacular spots, as it attracts a larger number of lesser flamingos and other species of water birds.

Similar to Kenya’s Amboseli National Park, Tarangire is also home to a high concentration of elephants, especially in the Tarangire River and Silale Swamps.

Additionally, Tarangire is also said to have around 550 distinct bird species, and so during the game drive, a few you may spot include crested francolins, hoopoes, and yellow-necked spurfowls, as they are commonly found resting on the branches of tall acacia trees, which is surely a treat for eyes!

Featuring a wide range of landscapes from plain grassland areas to rocky hills, densely covered riverine forests, and deep swamps, you'll be able to see how this national park features a diverse ecosystem that all work harmoniously together and have played a critical role in keeping this destination thriving for decades.

Likewise, lunch (packed boxes) will also be served during your sightseeing break, with timings arranged by your tour guide’s plan for the day.

After a full day of exploring Tarangire National Park, you’ll make your way to a pre-booked lodge in Karatu, where you’ll get to enjoy a delicious dinner and spend the rest of the night.

Day 3

Drive to Serengeti National Park.

At. 07:00 AM: After having your delicious breakfast, you will be driven to Serengeti National Park from Karatu, which can take 3-4 hours to reach. 

Founded in 1951, this park welcomes thousands of visitors each year thanks to its breathtaking natural landscapes, rich abundant wildlife, and diverse ecological systems, which you’ll get to witness from the comfort of your safari vehicle, as this day you’ll be participating in a full-day game drive here. 

Spanning across a massive 14,763 square kilometers, this park features many varied ecosystems ranging from vast, lush-green woodlands, grasslands, swamps, and riverine forests that will provide you plenty of opportunities to learn about one of the park’s varied landscapes and observe a wide range of Tanzania’s wildlife as well.

Additionally, lunch will also be served during your sightseeing break, with timings arranged by your tour guide’s plan for the day. 

After a full day of exploring Serengeti, you’ll make your way to your tented camp located near the Nyabogati River (in Robanda), where you’ll enjoy a beautiful sunset, have a delicious dinner, and spend the rest of the night.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner Included.

Day 4

Game Drive in Serengeti National Park.

At. 06:00 AM: After having your fulfilling breakfast, get ready to spend another day at Serengeti National Park.

You’ll be going for both the morning and afternoon drives this day and can ask your guide to take you to areas of the park that you had missed the day earlier, ensuring that you get a complete and diverse wildlife viewing experience.

As the tented camp is pretty close to the national park, you might hear sounds of animals howling in the distance, which can be a pretty incredible experience.

Have your delicious dinner in the campground, relax underneath the starlit sky, and enjoy your overnight stay.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner Included.

Day 5

Game Drive on Ngorongoro Crater Floor.

At. 06:00 AM: After your breakfast, you’ll be driven to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, which can take 3 to 4 hours to reach from your campsite in Robanda. This attraction consists of a volcanic region that comprises Lake Magadi, Ngorongoro Crater (also known as a caldera), and Olduvai Gorge (an ancient archaeological site).

Millions of years ago, the Ngorongoro Crater used to be an active volcano that was believed to be taller than even Mount Kilimanjaro (Africa’s tallest mountain) but erupted, resulting in its cone collapsing inward, which led to the creation of the now present 600-meter crater/caldera (a vast deep depression left after a volcanic eruption).

To provide you the best experience, you’ll be going on a half-day game drive around the crater floor that will consist of mostly open grasslands and offers epic views of wildlife like elephants, rhinos, leopards, buffaloes, warthogs, wildebeest, and lions.

Surprisingly, no giraffes are found here due to the crater’s ecosystem lacking the essential food (acacia trees) needed for them to sustain their livelihood.

Likewise, for bird lovers, this attraction is said to be an absolute heaven, as one is able to spot a variety of birds like ostriches, kori bustards, grey crowned cranes, and spurfowls.

Additionally, lunch will also be served during your sightseeing break, with timings arranged by your tour guide’s plan for the day.

After finishing your half-day game drive, you’ll head to your pre-booked lodge in either Arusha or Moshi (depending upon your convenience), where you’ll enjoy a delicious dinner and spend the rest of the night.

Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner Included.

The details regarding this tour package include a detailed itinerary designed for your convenience. For any assistance or customization requests, please feel free to contact us anytime.

Our primary objective is to deliver an exceptional travel experience by creating personalized itineraries tailored to your specific requirements and group size, ensuring a private tour that exceeds your expectations.

We are dedicated to making your trip memorable, offering personalized service and attention to detail. Whether you are traveling solo, as a couple, or with a group, our tour package promises a unique and luxurious experience in the heart of this nation.

Useful Money and Currency Tips

When traveling from Nepal to Tanzania, it's essential to consider currency exchange and money management tips to ensure a smooth and efficient trip. 

When traveling to these nations, it is advisable to bring some US currency to ensure readiness for initial expenses and unforeseen circumstances. We advise you to carry around 1000-2500 USD in cash, as this amount can cover expenses such as meals, additional places, and shopping. 

Likewise, cash is generally preferred in many local restaurants, small souvenir shops, street markets, and rural areas, where around 50,000-1,50,000 Tanzanian shillings is ideal for most purchases, whereas credit cards (like Visa and Mastercard) can be used in many hotels, shopping malls, and larger establishments.

By preparing adequately with cash and understanding local currency practices, you can enhance the experience and facilitate smooth transactions throughout your stay in Kenya.

Travel Insurance and Entry Rules

Travel insurance is mandatory while traveling to Tanzania, so we advise you to purchase one before your travel days.

While selecting the insurance type, a few essential components that you must look into include emergency medical coverage, medical evacuation, and trip cancellation/interruptions (to name a few).

Likewise, if you’re transiting or traveling from a country with a risk of yellow fever transmission, then you are required to show an official yellow fever certificate at border control in Tanzania. 

Put Your Safety First

Tanzania is generally a very welcoming and safe destination, but there are cases of petty theft, pick pocketing, purse snatching, and scams, especially in tourist centric areas like Dar es Salaam, Arusha, Moshi, and Stone Town, so we advise you to take all the safety precautions while exploring these places. 

While traveling, we advise you to leave all your valuables at home, store physical cash and your passport safely in your bag or hotel safe, and only carry the money you need for the day. Similarly, avoid walking alone after dark, especially if you've never traveled to that place, and use only registered vehicles. 

You can also make both physical and digital copies of all your essential personal/travel documents, like your passport, travel insurance, and visa confirmation, in case you lose access to either one of them. 

Important Emergency Numbers

You can also save these emergency contact numbers on your mobile before your departure date:

  • Police service: 112/999
  • Fire Department: 114
  • Medical Emergencies & Ambulance: 115 

Power and Tech Essentials

Tanzania uses two types of power plugs, which are type G and D, and the standard electrical voltage is 230 volts at 50 Hz, so before your travel days, you can purchase a universal adapter, which includes built-in USB ports, which allows you to charge your phone, power bank, and camera batteries from a single socket. 

Game Drive Etiquette and Essentials

While Tanzania is a popular game drive destination for wildlife enthusiasts, all travelers must take their safety seriously while exploring these sites. During game drive experiences, stay inside the vehicle and do not approach any of the wild animals. 

Furthermore, we suggest you wear neutral/light colored clothing and avoid wearing bright, colorful items so that you’re able to blend with the natural environment. If you happen to come across any wild animal, don’t make any loud noises, as it can startle and sometimes even provoke the animals. Lastly, always follow the rules and advice set by the tour operator.

Additionally, a few essentials that you can carry during your game drives in Tanzania include:

  • Personal first aid kit
  • Wide brimmed hat for sun protection
  • Sunscreen and lip balm
  • Insect repellent
  • Personal medications
  • Electronics like phones and cameras
  • Binoculars (if you have them)
  • A reusable water bottle 
  • A lightweight jacket if you’re going on afternoon game drives

Visa Requirements and Travel Documents

Nepali citizens are eligible for both the online E-visa and visa on arrival policy, which stays valid for up to 90 days. For this, travelers need to fulfill certain visa requirements and submit all the necessary travel documents, which are stated down below:

Documents required for the online E-visa: 

  • Scanned copy of your passport with a validity of at least 6 months.
  • Scanned copy of your recent passport-size photo.
  • Scanned copy of your onward/return ticket, accommodation details, and contact information.

Documents for visa on arrival policy:

  • Original passport with a validity of at least 6 months. 
  • Scanned copy of your onward/return ticket, accommodation details, and contact information.

Best Time to Visit Tanzania

Tanzania goes through two main seasons, out of which the dry season (June-October) is the most favorable. During this 5-month period, the weather remains moderate, calm, and pleasant, with temperatures usually being a bit high during the daytime, whereas nights can be significantly cooler. 

As you’ll be exploring national parks like the Tarangire and Serengeti National Parks, along with the Ngorongoro Crater Floor, landscapes in these regions are said to become much drier and sparser, creating better visibility that will help you spot a variety of animals and birds.

Likewise, the Great Migration also takes place at this time during these months, where millions of wildebeests and zebras migrate between the Serengeti National Park and Masai Mara National Reserve and is also considered one of Tanzania’s peak seasons. 

If you’re someone who is into epic wildlife encounters and capturing stunning nature photography, then the dry season marks the period of time for you.
