Your Camping Adventure

Day 01

Tarangire National Park – Full Game Drive

Pick-up at Bishara Cottages at 8:00 AM after breakfast. Head straight into Tarangire National Park — one of Tanzania's most underrated treasures, famous for its massive elephant herds, ancient baobab trees, and the Tarangire River teeming with wildlife.

Enjoy a full day of game drives with a picnic lunch served in the park. As the sun dips, transfer back to Bishara Cottages for a comfortable night's rest before the camping begins tomorrow.

Day 02

Journey to Serengeti via Ngorongoro Conservation Area

An early departure at 7:30 AM after breakfast. Drive through the scenic Ngorongoro Conservation Area with an exciting en-route game drive along the way — keep your camera ready for elephants, buffalo, and Maasai herds on the plains.

Continue into the vast Serengeti National Park, arriving in time for afternoon game drives on the iconic savannah — the setting for the world's greatest wildlife spectacle.

As darkness falls, your chef prepares a delicious dinner under the stars at your campsite — a truly unforgettable experience.

Day 03

Full Day in Serengeti & Move to Ngorongoro Campsite

Spend a full day game driving across the Central Serengeti. This is prime territory for the Big Five, cheetah chases, and — depending on season — the thundering Great Migration herds. Your private vehicle means you follow the wildlife at your own pace.

Late in the afternoon, drive towards the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and set up camp at the rim — 2,300 metres above sea level with spectacular views into the crater below. The night air is crisp, the skies are filled with stars, and tomorrow the crater awaits.

Day 04

Ngorongoro Crater Game Drive & Departure

After an early breakfast at camp, descend into the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most extraordinary places on earth. The crater floor is home to an incredible concentration of wildlife, including the endangered black rhino, huge elephant bulls, thousands of wildebeest, zebra, and hippos, plus spectacular birdlife at the soda lake.

Enjoy a full crater game drive with a picnic lunch before ascending back out and heading home.
