Luxury Safari: Ngorongoro, Lake Natron & Serengeti Migration in 7 Days

This exclusive 7-day luxury safari takes you deep into Tanzania’s wildest and most beautiful corners — from surreal salt flats to lion-stalked savannahs. It’s specially timed for the July–October season, when two of Tanzania’s impressive natural events happen side by side: flamingos nesting at Lake Natron and the Great Migration crossing the Mara River in Serengeti. You’ll start with two nights at Lake Natron, a quiet, remote spot where thousands of flamingos gather to nest, surrounded by volcanic scenery. Then it’s off to Northern Serengeti’s Kogatende, the best place to catch dramatic river crossings as herds of wildebeest and zebra follow their migration route. You’ll spend two nights in a luxury tented camp close to the action at Mara River. A night in Central Serengeti gives you time to unwind and take in a different side of the park, before heading to your final stop — the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater. Here, you’ll explore one of Africa’s most iconic landscapes, packed with wildlife and stunning views. This itinerary combines comfort, variety, and two unforgettable migrations — all without rushing.

- Moshi and Arusha-based accommodations usually include breakfast only, unless requested and agreed otherwise. Please refer to the program to see your meal plans on each night
- Most safari lodges usually do not include tea, coffee, soft and alcoholic drinks not to have you overpay for beverages you don't need. You will be able to order and pay for drinks at the hotels' restaurants
- Tented lodges are the most common type of accommodation in savannah. Many of them work on solar energy. This sometimes means bucket showers, limited wi-fi and no hair dryers, all in an effort to reduce environmental impact.
