Our 3-day itinerary is carefully designed to maximize your chances of seeing all Big Five animals (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino). While wildlife sightings can never be 100% guaranteed, our expert guides know the best locations and times to spot these magnificent creatures. The Ngorongoro Crater has one of the highest densities of wildlife in Africa, including rhinos, making it an excellent location for Big Five sightings.

The luxury package upgrades several aspects of your safari experience:

  • Premium accommodations at luxury lodges and tented camps
  • Enhanced safari vehicle with WiFi, fridge, and more comfort features
  • Gourmet dining experiences and champagne sundowners
  • More personalized service and exclusive activities
  • Higher-end amenities throughout your journey

Both packages include professional guides and excellent wildlife viewing opportunities.
