Tanzania tours and safari adventure

Day 5 Serengeti to Ngorongoro

Today you will wake up very early to do an early morning safari before breakfast, to spot the animals when they are more active and also to have a fantastic sun rise in front of you. The sunrise in the african Savannah is one of the most beautiful experiences one can have. You will then travel to Ngorongor Crater, inhabited by almost every species of wildlife indigenous to East Africa including the rare black rhino. In fact, the crater has the greatest concentration of wild life in the planet.

It contains a river, several swamps, a soda lake that, from the top, looks like steam, full of flamingos, a forest and open plains. The large bull elephants that reside here have extremely large tusks, due to the rich mineral content of the volcanic soil and its grasses. After a full day, you will return to a lodge in Karatu for dinner and an overnight stay.

Day 6 Tarangire National Park

After breakfast, you will make the short drive to Tarangire National Park. Tarangire is well known for its large elephant herds.

Adam M
We just got back from an amazing 4-day Safari with Greyjoy tours . The company really stands out with their outstanding level of service! The office was very helpful in customizing our trip to our needs and our budget. Our guide, Eugen, was very very experienced, he told us every single detail about the animals and background information about the national parks. Above any expectations, he served every day a super delicious lunch in a great scenery. Honestly, the lunches organized by Greyjoy were by far the best food we had in Tanzania! Eugen even cleaned the Safari Jeep every day, not that we have expected that at all. And last but not least he has a very good sense of humor 🙂 So if you are looking for an unbeatable safari experience in Tanzania look no further and go with Greyjoy tours & Safari and ask for Eugen as guide!

In June We had a fantastic experience climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro with the GreyJoy team. The guide Imma and his team were very professional and skilled. We did the Machame route in 7 days.


The food served was delicious and they truly went out of their way to ensure we are all having a great time.

Highly recommend GreyJoy to people who want to climb Kilimanjaro.
