A Tanzania Budget Safari is ideal for those who want to experience the beauty of Tanzania without incurring significant expenses. The key differences between a Tanzania Budget Safari and a Tanzania Luxury Tented camp safari are the quality and location of accommodations, the quality and number of included activities, the size of the safari tour group, and the level of personalized service. The novice explorer did not want to pitch a tent and cook food, though there are safaris where an authentic “in the African Bush” experience is offered. Hence, they opted for the Tanzania Budget Safari.
After breakfast, drive to Tarangire National Park, enjoy a full-day game drive with a picnic lunch. The park consists of natural vegetation mainly of Acacia woodland and giant African Baobab trees, with huge swamp areas in the south. Both the river and the swamps act like a magnet for wild animals, during Tanzania’s dry season. The Tarangire National Park is reputed to contain some of the largest elephant herds in Africa.
This African National Park is also home to three rare species of animals – the Greater Kudu, the Fringed-eared Oryx, as well as a few Ashy Starlings.
Dinner and overnight at Octagon Lodge

After breakfast, drive to Ngorongoro Crater with lunch box, have full day game drive in the crater The Ngorongoro Crater is one of the most densely crowded African wildlife areas in the world and is home to an estimated 30,000 animals including some of Tanzania’s last remaining black rhinos.
Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the crater supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park is its huge population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs and the ever-elusive leopard. We will enjoy a picnic lunch on the crater floor.
