Is a 2-3 Day Safari for Me?

A 2-3 day safari in Tanzania is short. You’ll only be away for 1-2 nights. But even within these time constraints, you’ll be making precious memories. Even more so than on a longer safari, you’ll have to make choices which we will help you with. To save time, a fly-in to Serengeti might be a good choice, but only if you must visit the Serengeti. Otherwise you will see the big 5, plenty of birds and smaller animals in Lake Manyara, Tarangire and/or Ngorongoro. There are plenty of authentic safari lodges across all budgets. So whether you want to keep it simple or you want something truly romantic for your honeymoon, you can customize a 2-3 day safari from Arusha to suit your needs.
