3 Days Tanzania Budget Safari Prices:$$.00

Itinerary Overview

This 3-day Tanzania budget safari takes you through two of the country’s most iconic destinations, offering a perfect blend of adventure, wildlife, and breathtaking landscapes within a short time. The journey covers the legendary Serengeti National Park, home to the Big Five and the Great Migration, and the world-renowned Ngorongoro Crater, often described as the most spectacular wildlife safari experience in Africa. With budget-friendly accommodation and a professional guide, this safari ensures you enjoy Tanzania’s wilderness without compromising on experience.

Day 1: Arusha – Serengeti National Park

Depart early in the morning from Arusha with a scenic drive across the Great Rift Valley and through the Ngorongoro Highlands on the way to Serengeti National Park. On arrival, enjoy your first game drive across the endless plains where large herds of wildebeest, zebras, giraffes, and elephants roam freely. Predators like lions, cheetahs, and leopards are often spotted here. In the evening, settle at a budget camp or lodge inside or near the park for dinner and overnight.

Day 2: Serengeti National Park – Ngorongoro Conservation Area

Wake up early for a sunrise game drive in Serengeti, the best time to see predators in action as they hunt. After breakfast, continue with another short game drive while heading towards the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Along the way, enjoy breathtaking views of the vast savannah and Maasai villages. Arrive at the crater’s rim by evening, where you’ll relax at a budget campsite or lodge while enjoying stunning crater views before dinner and overnight.

Day 3: Ngorongoro Crater – Arusha

After an early breakfast, descend into the Ngorongoro Crater for a half-day game drive. The crater floor is home to diverse wildlife, including elephants, buffalo, lions, zebras, hippos, flamingos, and if lucky, the rare black rhino. Enjoy a picnic lunch by the hippo pool before continuing your exploration. Later in the afternoon, ascend the crater and begin your drive back to Arusha, marking the end of your unforgettable 3-day Tanzania safari.
