About five-eight Days Safari
There’s no better way to see the wildebeest migration in action and see the amazing parks that have made Tanzania so famous. 5-8 days allows you to spend a very reasonable amount of time in the Serengeti (2-4 nights). You’ll, of course, also explore Ngorongoro, Manyara, and Tarangire National Parks.
You can either do the tour by land (circle itinerary) or fly back from the Serengeti to remove the backtracking. The cost of this trip can be lowered by choosing adventurous budget camping. If you prefer lodges or tented camps, there is plenty of choice in 3 to 5-star accommodations to suit everyone.
