A genuine bush experience on a budget. Four days of camping at public campsites bring the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater within reach for younger and cost-conscious travellers, with the same private 4x4 and expert guide.
What camping safari really means
You sleep in dome tents at park campsites while a dedicated camp chef cooks fresh meals. It is more hands-on than a lodge safari and noticeably cheaper, while still using a private 4x4 and a professional guide for the game drives.
