This six-day Kenya and Tanzania safari visits three protected wildlife areas, each with distinct habitats and opportunities for game viewing. Sightings depend on seasonal conditions, animal movements and the time of day.

Amboseli National Park – Elephants and Savannah Wildlife

Amboseli is renowned for its large elephant herds, including impressive adult bulls and family groups. Its swamps, grasslands and acacia woodland support buffalo, zebra, wildebeest, giraffes, hippos and numerous bird species.

Lions, spotted hyenas and other predators may also be encountered. The park's open terrain provides excellent wildlife photography opportunities, especially when Mount Kilimanjaro is visible.

Tarangire National Park – River Habitats and Baobab Woodlands

Tarangire supports diverse wildlife across its wooded savannah, seasonal wetlands and riverine habitats. During the dry season, animals gather around reliable water sources, creating opportunities to observe elephants, buffalo, zebra, wildebeest and antelope.

Giraffes, lions and numerous bird species also inhabit the park. Wildlife concentrations vary throughout the year, with the dry season generally offering particularly rewarding viewing conditions.

Ngorongoro Crater – Wildlife Within a Volcanic Caldera

The Ngorongoro Crater is home to a remarkable variety of wildlife within its grasslands, freshwater areas and forest patches.

Visitors may encounter lions, buffalo, zebras, wildebeest, gazelles, hippos and spotted hyenas. The crater also supports endangered black rhinos, although sightings are not guaranteed.

Its relatively compact wildlife-viewing area makes the crater an excellent destination for observing several species during a scheduled game drive.

Wildlife Viewing and Photography

Professional safari driver-guides help identify wildlife, explain animal behaviour and position vehicles appropriately for viewing and photography while respecting park regulations.

All wildlife encounters occur in natural habitats, and sightings of particular species cannot be guaranteed.

The best time for a 6-day Amboseli, Tarangire and Ngorongoro safari depends on your preferred wildlife experiences, weather conditions and travel budget. Kenya and Tanzania offer rewarding game viewing throughout the year, although seasonal rainfall influences vegetation, wildlife movements, road conditions and visibility of Mount Kilimanjaro.

January–March: Excellent Wildlife Viewing & Green Landscapes

January to March is an attractive period for travellers seeking warm weather, beautiful scenery and rewarding wildlife encounters.

Amboseli's open grasslands provide excellent opportunities to observe elephant families, buffalo, zebras and predators. Mount Kilimanjaro is often most visible during clear early mornings before clouds develop around the summit.

In Tarangire, seasonal rainfall can create lush vegetation and disperse some wildlife away from permanent water sources. Ngorongoro Crater remains a rewarding safari destination, with resident wildlife including lions, buffalo, hippos and black rhinoceroses.

Best For: Couples, photographers, honeymooners and travellers seeking green landscapes and comfortable safari conditions.

April–May: Green Season & Fewer Safari Vehicles

April and May generally coincide with the region's long rainy season, bringing greener landscapes, dramatic skies and fewer visitors to many safari destinations.

Amboseli's wetlands become particularly scenic, attracting elephants, buffalo and numerous bird species. Tarangire's vegetation becomes thicker, making some animals more challenging to locate, although wildlife viewing remains possible.

Ngorongoro Crater continues to support resident wildlife throughout the year, but rain and mist may occasionally affect crater-rim visibility.

Roads can become muddy, and game-drive schedules may require adjustments during heavy rainfall.

Best For: Birdwatchers, landscape photographers and travellers who prefer quieter safari experiences.

June–October: Prime Dry-Season Wildlife Viewing

June to October is generally the most popular period for an Amboseli, Tarangire and Ngorongoro safari because of the drier conditions and excellent wildlife-viewing opportunities.

In Amboseli, elephants and other animals gather around permanent swamps and water sources. Reduced vegetation often improves wildlife visibility, while clear mornings may provide spectacular views of Mount Kilimanjaro.

Tarangire is especially rewarding during the dry season, when large numbers of elephants, zebras, wildebeest and other animals concentrate around the Tarangire River.

Ngorongoro Crater offers excellent opportunities to observe lions, buffalo, elephants and the endangered black rhinoceros.

July to September can be particularly busy, making advance accommodation reservations important.

Best For: First-time safari travellers, wildlife photographers, families and visitors prioritising dry-season game viewing.

November–December: Short Rains & Beautiful Safari Scenery

November and December typically bring the short rains, refreshing the landscapes of Kenya and northern Tanzania.

Amboseli becomes greener, with elephants, giraffes and other wildlife moving across the plains. Kilimanjaro views can be particularly beautiful after rainfall clears the atmosphere, although cloud cover remains unpredictable.

In Tarangire, some wildlife disperses as seasonal water sources become available. Birdwatching can be rewarding, with migratory species arriving in the region.

Ngorongoro Crater remains an excellent year-round wildlife destination, offering opportunities to encounter predators, buffalo, hippos and rhinos.

Best For: Couples, families, birdwatchers and travellers seeking green scenery with potentially fewer safari vehicles outside holiday periods.

Seasonal Safari Guide 2027–2028

Our Safari Expert Recommendation

For travellers prioritising elephant encounters, clear wildlife photography and dry-season game viewing, July to October is generally the strongest overall period for this combined Kenya and Tanzania safari.

However, January to March is also highly rewarding, particularly for Amboseli elephant photography and the dramatic landscapes surrounding Mount Kilimanjaro.

East Africa Jungle operates private safaris throughout the year, with itineraries adapted to seasonal wildlife conditions and your preferred travel dates.

Your 6 Days Amboseli, Tarangire & Ngorongoro Private Safari follows a carefully planned overland route from Nairobi, Kenya, to Arusha, Tanzania, combining spectacular landscapes, wildlife-rich national parks and comfortable safari accommodation.

Travelling in a private 4×4 Land Cruiser allows you to enjoy scenic countryside, photography stops and wildlife encounters while your professional driver-guides coordinate each journey.

Day 3 is the longest transfer of your Kenya and Tanzania safari.

Day 6: Karatu to Arusha

After breakfast, depart Karatu and travel towards Arusha, a journey of approximately two and a half to three hours under normal road conditions.

The starting price is USD 2,255 per adult sharing, subject to qualifying travel dates and confirmed supplier rates. Any requested upgrades or additional services are explained before booking.

7. Personalised Planning & Guest Support

Whether you are travelling as a couple, family or small private group, our team can help tailor the itinerary to your preferences.

We assist with travel planning, reservations, special requests and operational coordination from your initial enquiry through to the conclusion of your safari.

1. How much does the 6 Days Amboseli, Tarangire & Ngorongoro Safari cost?

Our six-day private Kenya and Tanzania safari starts from USD 2,255 per person, based on two adults sharing accommodation and travelling together. The starting total for two adults is USD 4,510.

The safari includes private 4×4 transportation, five nights of accommodation, scheduled game drives, full-board safari meals, mandatory national park entrance fees, Ngorongoro Conservation Area fees and the crater vehicle service fee.

Final prices depend on travel dates, accommodation availability and the number of travellers. The advertised starting rate is not guaranteed for every departure in 2027–2028.

2. Is this Kenya and Tanzania safari private or shared?

This is a fully private safari in both Kenya and Tanzania.

You travel in separate private 4×4 Land Cruiser safari vehicles with professional English-speaking driver-guides in each country. No unrelated travellers join your scheduled game drives or private transfers.

Each safari vehicle accommodates a maximum of seven guests, with additional vehicles arranged for larger private groups.

3. Where does the 6-day Kenya and Tanzania safari start and end?

Your safari begins in Nairobi, Kenya, with pickup from your hotel or Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) on Day 1.

The safari concludes in Arusha, Tanzania, on Day 6, with drop-off at your hotel or an agreed location within Arusha.

Transfers to Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) can be arranged separately according to your flight schedule and confirmed quotation.

4. Which national parks will we visit during the six-day safari?

You will explore three major East African wildlife destinations:

• Amboseli National Park, Kenya

• Tarangire National Park, Tanzania

• Ngorongoro Crater, Tanzania

Amboseli is famous for elephants and Mount Kilimanjaro views, Tarangire for baobab landscapes and elephant herds, and Ngorongoro Crater for its exceptional concentration of wildlife.

5. Are all national park entrance fees and Ngorongoro Crater fees included?

Yes. All mandatory national park entrance fees, Ngorongoro Conservation Area fees and the Ngorongoro Crater vehicle service fee required for the scheduled six-day itinerary are included in your safari package.

You will not need to pay these mandatory fees separately for the included game drives and crater visit.

Only optional activities, additional park visits or services outside your confirmed itinerary may involve extra charges.

6. Which accommodation is included in this safari?

Your six-day safari includes five nights at three selected properties:

• Nyati Safari Camp, Amboseli – 2 Nights

• Lake Burunge Tented Lodge, Tarangire Area – 1 Night

• Eileen's Trees Inn, Karatu – 2 Nights

The accommodation combines budget-friendly safari camping with comfortable mid-range tented lodge and en-suite lodge facilities.

All accommodation is subject to availability at the time of booking. Comparable alternatives may be proposed for your approval if a selected property is unavailable.

7. Do I need separate visas for Kenya and Tanzania?

Entry requirements depend on your nationality.

Kenya generally requires an approved Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) for travellers who are not exempt, while Tanzania may require a tourist visa.

The East African Tourist Visa does not cover Tanzania. Travellers must meet each country's immigration requirements separately.

Check the applicable passport, visa and health requirements before departure.

8. How do we cross the Kenya–Tanzania border during the safari?

On Day 3, your private Kenyan driver-guide transfers you from Amboseli to the Namanga One-Stop Border Post.

After completing immigration and customs formalities, you meet your Tanzanian driver-guide and transfer your luggage to a separate private 4×4 Land Cruiser.

Your safari continues towards Lake Burunge Tented Lodge near Tarangire National Park.

The border crossing and private vehicle handover are coordinated by East Africa Jungle and included in the safari arrangements.

9. How long are the driving distances on this safari?

The journey from Nairobi to Amboseli generally takes approximately four to five hours.

Day 3 is the longest transfer, with approximately seven to nine hours allowed for the journey from Amboseli to Lake Burunge via Namanga, including normal border formalities, vehicle handover and comfort stops.

Other transfers between Tarangire, Karatu, Ngorongoro Crater and Arusha are shorter, although actual journey times depend on road conditions, wildlife stops and park regulations.

10. Can we see the Big Five during this six-day safari?

Yes. The itinerary provides opportunities to encounter Africa's Big Five: lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhinoceros.

Amboseli and Tarangire are particularly famous for elephants, while Ngorongoro Crater offers opportunities to observe lions, buffalo and endangered black rhinoceroses.

Leopards are more elusive, and wildlife sightings cannot be guaranteed because animals move freely within their natural habitats.

11. Is the 6-day Amboseli, Tarangire and Ngorongoro safari suitable for children?

Yes. This private safari is suitable for families with children who are comfortable with road travel and wildlife game drives.

Private transportation provides flexibility for rest stops, photography and family preferences.

Child prices depend on age, accommodation arrangements and applicable park fees. Family room availability must be confirmed before booking.

12. What is the best time to visit Amboseli, Tarangire and Ngorongoro?

June to October generally offers excellent dry-season wildlife viewing, particularly in Tarangire, where animals gather around permanent water sources.

January to March is also rewarding for Amboseli elephant photography and Mount Kilimanjaro scenery.

April–May and November–December bring greener landscapes, seasonal rainfall and rewarding birdwatching opportunities.

Ngorongoro Crater offers wildlife viewing throughout the year.

13. What type of safari vehicle will we use?

Your private safari uses 4×4 Land Cruiser vehicles equipped with pop-up roofs and window seats.

A private Kenyan safari vehicle and driver-guide operate from Nairobi to Namanga. A separate private Tanzanian vehicle and driver-guide continue from Namanga through Tarangire, Ngorongoro and Arusha.

Both vehicles are reserved exclusively for your booking party and accommodate a maximum of seven safari guests each.

14. Can I customise this six-day Kenya and Tanzania safari?

Yes. East Africa Jungle can customise your safari with additional nights in Amboseli or Tarangire, accommodation upgrades, Maasai cultural experiences, Lake Manyara excursions or a Zanzibar beach extension.

Optional services and additional activities are quoted separately according to your travel dates, preferences and accommodation availability.

15. How do I book the 6 Days Amboseli, Tarangire & Ngorongoro Safari?

"Our family adventure through Kenya and Tanzania was everything we had hoped for. Watching elephants walking beneath Mount Kilimanjaro in Amboseli was a magical experience, especially for our children. Tarangire was equally impressive, with beautiful baobab trees and wonderful wildlife encounters. Ngorongoro Crater was the highlight of our final days, with lions, buffalo and hippos in spectacular surroundings.

Tarangire surprised us with its enormous baobab trees, giraffes and impressive elephant herds. Our Ngorongoro Crater game drive was another unforgettable experience, especially watching lions and buffalo on the crater floor.

We particularly enjoyed the peaceful surroundings at Nyati Safari Camp and the beautiful scenery near Lake Burunge. The guides coordinated our Namanga border crossing smoothly, making the transfer between countries straightforward. Amboseli's elephants were extraordinary, while Tarangire offered stunning landscapes and excellent wildlife sightings. Our final game drive in Ngorongoro Crater was unforgettable.

Tarangire's ancient baobab trees and large elephant herds made the game drives incredibly rewarding. Ngorongoro Crater was spectacular, with lions, buffalo, hippos and numerous grazing animals. Our private driver-guides were excellent at spotting wildlife and explaining animal behaviour. The itinerary was well organised, and the accommodation provided a comfortable place to relax after each exciting day."
