Tanzania Big Five Safaris
Big Five Safari Tanzania
The Big Five are the lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino. Tanzania offers all five, and the rhino is the hardest to find. A good guide and enough days in the right parks make a big difference.
Recommended Tanzania Big Five safaris
The Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater are the best combination. Lions, elephants and buffalo are seen in most parks, leopards are often found in the Serengeti and Tarangire, and black rhinos are most often seen in Ngorongoro Crater.
Tips for spotting the Big Five
Early morning and late afternoon are the best times for game drives. Allow several days, listen to your guide and be patient, especially for leopard and rhino.
Sightings are never guaranteed, but a longer trip across two or three parks greatly improves your chances.
