All Best 5 Days Tanzania Luxury Safari Tours 2026/2027/2028

6 Luxury Safari Packages by Rede Tours and Safaris

Tanzania is one of Africa's premier safari destinations, and a 5-day luxury safari is an excellent way to experience its most famous wildlife areas without spending too much time on the road.

At Rede Tours and Safaris, we design private luxury safaris around your travel dates, interests, accommodation preferences and budget. Our 5-day options range from the classic Tarangire–Serengeti–Ngorongoro route to fly-in adventures, family safaris and specially designed migration experiences.

Whether you are planning your Tanzania holiday for 2026, 2027 or 2028, here are six of our best 5-day luxury safari options.

1. 5 Days Tanzania Luxury Safari – Tarangire, Serengeti & Ngorongoro

The Classic Tanzania Luxury Safari

Best for: First-time visitors, couples, families and honeymooners

This is our signature 5-day luxury safari and one of the best ways to combine three of Tanzania's most iconic wildlife destinations.

Itinerary

Begin your safari from Arusha and travel to Tarangire National Park. Enjoy a private game drive searching for elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras and other wildlife before continuing to Karatu.

Day 2: Karatu – Serengeti National Park
Travel through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area toward the Serengeti. Enjoy an afternoon game drive after entering the park.

Day 3: Full-Day Serengeti Safari
Spend a full day exploring the Serengeti. Search for lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, buffaloes and large herds of wildebeest and zebras.

Day 4: Serengeti – Ngorongoro Conservation Area
Enjoy a morning game drive before travelling toward Ngorongoro for your overnight stay.

Day 5: Ngorongoro Crater – Arusha
Descend into the Ngorongoro Crater for an unforgettable game drive before returning to Arusha.

Luxury experience: Private 4x4 safari vehicle, professional guide and carefully selected luxury accommodation.

This route is currently offered by Rede Tours as a 5-day luxury itinerary covering Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro.

2. 5 Days Tanzania Luxury Safari – Serengeti & Ngorongoro

More Time in the Serengeti

Best for: Wildlife lovers, photographers and travellers who want longer game drives

If the Serengeti is the main reason for your Tanzania trip, this itinerary gives you more time to explore the park instead of trying to visit too many destinations.

Itinerary

Day 1: Arusha – Ngorongoro Highlands
Day 2: Ngorongoro – Serengeti
Day 3: Full-Day Serengeti Game Drive
Day 4: Full-Day Serengeti Game Drive
Day 5: Serengeti – Arusha

This option is particularly attractive for travellers interested in predators, wildlife photography and the Great Migration.

Rather than changing accommodation every night, you can spend more time in the Serengeti and enjoy a slower, more immersive safari experience.

3. 5 Days Tanzania Luxury Safari – Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro & Lake Manyara

The Ultimate Northern Circuit Highlights

Best for: Travellers who want to see four major destinations in five days

This is an ambitious but rewarding itinerary covering:

Tarangire National Park
Lake Manyara National Park
Serengeti National Park
Ngorongoro Crater

Itinerary

Day 1: Arusha – Tarangire National Park
Game drive among Tarangire's elephants, baobabs and diverse wildlife.

Rede Tours also offers a 5-day itinerary covering Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro for travellers looking for a comprehensive Northern Circuit experience.

Note: Because four destinations are covered in five days, this itinerary is more active than the classic three-destination luxury safari.

4. 5 Days Tanzania Fly-In Luxury Safari

Fly Into the Serengeti and Save Time

Best for: Luxury travellers, honeymooners and visitors with limited time

Why spend hours driving when you can fly directly into the Serengeti?

This itinerary combines domestic flights with private luxury game drives.

Itinerary

Day 1: Fly to Serengeti – Afternoon Game Drive
Fly from Arusha or another suitable Tanzanian gateway to the Serengeti. Meet your private safari guide and begin your first game drive.

Day 3: Serengeti – Ngorongoro

The fly-in option is particularly suitable for travellers who want to maximize their time in the national parks. Rede Tours currently offers a 5-day fly-in luxury safari featuring Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara.

5. 5 Days Private Serengeti Migration Luxury Safari

Follow the Great Migration

Best for: Wildlife enthusiasts and photographers

The Great Migration is one of Africa's most spectacular wildlife experiences. However, it is important to understand that the migration follows nature rather than a fixed calendar.

Our migration-focused safari is planned around the expected location of the herds during your travel dates.

Suggested itinerary

Day 1: Arusha – Serengeti
Fly or drive into the Serengeti depending on your preferred travel style.

Day 2: Full-Day Serengeti Migration Game Drive
Spend the day following the wildlife and searching for predators.

Day 3: Full-Day Serengeti
Continue exploring the area where the migration is expected to be concentrated.

Day 4: Serengeti – Ngorongoro
Enjoy a final game drive before travelling toward Ngorongoro.

Day 5: Ngorongoro Crater – Arusha

Best months

The right location depends on the season. Migration-focused itineraries can be planned around:

• January–March: Calving season
• April–June: Movement through the central and western Serengeti
• July–October: Northern Serengeti and possible Mara River crossings
• November–December: Movement toward the southern Serengeti

Important: No responsible safari operator can guarantee a particular river crossing on a specific date. The migration is a natural phenomenon and its exact movement depends on rainfall, water and grazing conditions.

6. 5 Days Tanzania Luxury Safari – Family Edition

Luxury Safari Designed for Families

Best for: Families travelling with children

A family safari should be exciting without becoming exhausting.

Our family-focused 5-day safari combines wildlife, comfortable accommodation and a flexible private itinerary.

Travel in your own 4x4 safari vehicle with a professional guide.

Carefully Selected Accommodation

Flexible Itineraries

Your safari can be adjusted according to your interests, travel dates and accommodation preferences.

Complete Tanzania Experience

Combine your safari with Kilimanjaro, Zanzibar, beach holidays, cultural experiences or domestic flights to create a complete Tanzania adventure.

Best Time for a 5-Day Luxury Safari in Tanzania

Tanzania can be visited throughout the year, but the best period depends on what you want to experience.

June–October: Excellent dry-season wildlife viewing and a popular period for safari.

January–March: Excellent period for the southern Serengeti calving season.

November–December: Green landscapes, seasonal wildlife movements and potentially fewer visitors in some areas.

April–May: Green season, often attractive for travellers seeking lower-season rates and lush scenery.

If your primary goal is the Great Migration, your itinerary should be planned according to the expected location of the herds rather than simply choosing a month.
