This itinerary covers the same core parks as our 4 day trip but at a pace that leaves room to actually settle into each one. We add Lake Manyara National Park at the start - known for its groundwater forest and tree-climbing lions - and split the Serengeti portion across two full days so you can cover more ground and follow the migration if it's in the area.
Lake Manyara's groundwater forest and tree-climbing lions
Two full days of Serengeti game drives
Tarangire's elephant herds and baobabs
Ngorongoro Crater floor game drive
Accommodation: Mid-range lodge and tented camp (upgradeable to luxury)
Vehicle: 4x4 safari Land Cruiser with pop-up roof
Dry season (roughly June-October) concentrates wildlife along the river and is generally considered the best game-viewing window; wetter months see animals disperse more widely across the wider ecosystem.
