Designed specifically for backpackers and budget-conscious travellers, this 5-day safari delivers maximum wildlife for minimum cost. Join other adventurous travellers in a shared 4x4 and explore three of Tanzania's most iconic parks. Lake Manyara kicks things off with tree-climbing lions and flamingos, followed by a day in the legendary Serengeti where the Big Five roam endless golden plains. The grand finale is a morning on the floor of the Ngorongoro Crater — one of the most wildlife-dense places on earth. Budget camping, packed lunches, and shared costs keep the price backpacker-friendly without skimping on the wildlife experience.
Meet your group and drive to Lake Manyara. Afternoon game drive through the groundwater forest and along the lakeshore. Search for tree-climbing lions, elephants, flamingos, and blue monkeys. Camp near the park.
