Trip Overview

A 2 Days Shared Camping Tanzania Safari is the best choice when you have little time but still want a real northern Tanzania safari experience without paying private safari prices. This short adventure takes you to Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater, two places our team at Tanzania Safari Experience trusts for strong wildlife viewing even on a tight schedule.

We recommend this safari for travelers who want something simple, affordable, and rewarding. On the first day, you explore Tarangire, famous for big elephant herds, baobab trees, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, and beautiful open landscapes. After the game drive, you continue by road to Karatu, where you spend the night at Fanaka Lodge before heading to Ngorongoro the next morning.

The second day is the big highlight. You descend into the Ngorongoro Crater, one of the best places in Tanzania to see many animals in a short time. Lions, elephants, buffalo, hippos, zebras, hyenas, and even the rare black rhino can be found here, although wildlife is always natural and never guaranteed. For only $250 per day per person, this shared safari gives you serious value: two famous destinations, one overnight stay, group transport, and a real taste of Tanzania’s wildlife without wasting your budget.

After an early breakfast, you drive from Karatu to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and descend into the famous Ngorongoro Crater for a game drive. The crater is one of the best places in Tanzania to see many animals in a short time because wildlife stays inside this natural bowl throughout the year.

During the game drive, you may see lions, elephants, buffalo, zebras, wildebeest, hippos, hyenas, warthogs, flamingos, and possibly the rare black rhino. After lunch and the crater game drive, you will drive back to Arusha, where your 2 days shared camping safari ends.
