Overview

Indulge in Tanzania’s Finest Wilderness in Just Three Days

Unleash your spirit of adventure with this 3 day Tanzania luxury safari, an opulent escape that fuses thrilling wildlife encounters with five‑star comfort. In only seventy‑two hours you will traverse two of the country’s most celebrated landscapes, enjoying private game drives, sundowner cocktails, and nights in lodges that set the gold standard for African hospitality.


Tarangire National Park – A Land of Elephants & Baobabs

Begin amid Tarangire’s cathedral‑like baobabs where enormous elephant families roam dust‑hued plains. Lions, leopards, graceful giraffes and 500+ bird species turn every bend in the track into a photographic tableau. Because Tarangire sees fewer visitors than its northern cousins, your luxury safari feels delightfully exclusive.


Ngorongoro Crater – Wildlife in a Volcanic Eden

Next descend into the Ngorongoro Crater, often called the Eighth Wonder of the World. Here the Big Five mingle on a single stage: black rhinos graze near flamingo‑fringed lakes while lions stalk herds of zebra and wildebeest. Sweeping crater walls provide a cinematic backdrop to your private picnic and game drive.

From chilled Champagne at sunset to spa treatments overlooking Rift Valley escarpments, every element of this Tarangire and Ngorongoro luxury safari is curated for travellers who demand both adventure and indulgence.

🔹 Our prices explained +

Our safari prices are carefully calculated to offer the best value for money while maintaining high standards of safety, comfort, and service. Prices may vary based on the following factors:

Travel season
Safari prices are higher during peak wildlife seasons (June–October and festive holidays) due to increased demand and higher lodge and park fees. Traveling in shoulder or green seasons offers better value with fewer crowds.

Group size
All our safaris are conducted in a private 4×4 safari vehicle with a professional guide. Smaller groups have a higher per-person cost because vehicle and guide expenses are shared among fewer travelers, while larger groups benefit from better per-person value.

Park fees and conservation costs
National park entry fees, crater service fees, and government taxes are fixed costs set by authorities and can change by season or park.

Accommodation selection
Lodge and camp prices vary by season, location, and availability. Migration camps, crater-rim lodges, and beachfront resorts naturally cost more than standard options.

Private safari experience
Unlike shared group tours, our prices reflect a fully private safari experience, allowing flexibility in pace, routing, and wildlife viewing — without compromise.

We price our safaris to ensure fair compensation for our guides, well-maintained vehicles, and reliable operations, while offering travelers an authentic, memorable safari experience.

If you’re traveling with children, in a larger group, or have flexible travel dates, we’re happy to tailor the best possible value for your safari.
