5 questions sur le safari de 3 jours en Tanzanie

Un voyage de 3 jours en Tanzanie est-il trop court ?

Un safari de 3 jours est assez court, mais la question de savoir si c'est trop court dépend de ce que vous attendez. Si vous le pouvez, je vous recommande d'ajouter quelques jours supplémentaires. Plus de temps vous permettra de vous installer et de profiter pleinement de l'expérience de la brousse. Toutefois, si le temps et l'argent vous obligent à faire un court voyage, c'est mieux que de ne pas y aller du tout. Trois jours, c'est l'occasion de se rendre sur place et de se faire une idée.

 

Et j'espère que vous pourrez revenir une autre fois avec plus de temps. Ce n'est pas une bonne idée d'essayer d'en faire trop pendant un safari de 3 jours. N'oubliez pas que vous passerez une bonne partie de votre temps à vous rendre à vos points de départ et d'arrivée et à en revenir.

 

Tant que vous êtes réaliste quant à ce que vous pouvez faire lors d'un safari de cette durée, cela vaut vraiment la peine d'y aller.

Que puis-je faire pendant un safari de 3 jours en Tanzanie ?

Lorsque vous planifiez un safari de 3 jours en Tanzanie, plusieurs options s'offrent à vous. Il est préférable de passer les deux nuits au même endroit car le temps imparti est limité. Le choix le plus populaire pour un safari de 3 jours en Tanzanie est le circuit nord, qui comprend quatre parcs : Le parc national du Serengeti, le cratère du Ngorongoro, le parc national du lac Manyara et le parc national du Tarangire. S'il est techniquement possible de visiter les quatre parcs en trois jours, ce n'est pas recommandé.

 

Une option plus pratique consiste à visiter le célèbre Serengeti et à s'arrêter au cratère du Ngorongoro en cours de route. Les lacs Manyara et Tarangire, proches du parc national d'Arusha, peuvent également être combinés avec la visite du cratère du Ngorongoro dans le cadre d'un safari de trois jours.

 

Dans le sud du pays, le parc national de Nyerere (anciennement réserve de Selous) et le parc national de Ruaha peuvent être visités séparément dans le cadre d'un safari aérien au départ de Dar es Salaam ou de Zanzibar. Le parc national de Mikumi peut être visité lors d'un court safari par la route, qui dure environ 5 heures dans chaque sens depuis Dar es Salaam.

À quel type d'hébergement puis-je m'attendre ?

"Tanzania has a well-established tourism industry offering a wide range of accommodation options. Budget camping tours are a popular and affordable way to truly immerse yourself in the environment. For a bit more comfort, you can consider a budget lodge tour. These options are located outside the parks, but they serve as a base for game drives.

 

There are also mid-range options available, consisting of larger, no-frills hotels both inside and outside the parks and reserves. For those seeking luxury, high-end lodgings are commonly used for fly-in safari packages. These luxurious accommodations offer great food and service, with a variety of styles, including small designer ecolodges designed to blend into the environment.

 

If you want to experience a Tanzanian safari in style, this could be the right choice for you."

Which animals can I expect to see?

“Tanzania has an incredible wealth of wildlife, and which animals you may see will largely be determined by which parks you visit. All popular parks have a good variety of safari animals. However, the parks and reserves all have distinct differences in terrain, and this is reflected in the wildlife that is commonly encountered in each of them. If you don’t mind a lot of driving, it is possible to visit the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater on a 3-day road safari. This combination gives you a reasonable chance of seeing all the Big Five in a short time. Ngorongoro is the only reliable park in Tanzania to see black rhino in the wild.

 

The Serengeti and the Crater are both good for predators, and lions are particularly easy to find in both. Spotting a leopard on a 3-day safari is a bit trickier, but you never know your luck. To reduce driving time, you could fly in and out of the Serengeti and skip on the Ngorongoro Crater and its rhinos, or drive one way via the Crater and fly the other.

 

A 3-day trip to Ruaha or Nyerere in the south can be very productive. Predator sightings are more hit-and-miss, but you’ve a very good chance of seeing lion. The southern parks are known for wild dog, and Ruaha has a large variety of unusual antelope species, including the impressive greater kudu.”​

How much does a 3-day safari cost in Tanzania?

Putting an exact price on a 3-day safari is challenging due to numerous variables. Budget camping tours start at around $600 per person, while mid-range lodge tours can cost up to $1,000 per person. Luxury tours are pricier. You may find better deals during the low season. Once you identify your priorities, obtain several quotes. Tanzania's parks and reserves are among Africa's finest, offering an incredible experience but at a premium price.

 

Accommodation ranges from budget to luxury, with camping being a cost-effective option if you are comfortable with basic amenities and want to be close to nature. The cost also varies based on whether you choose a private or group tour. Although many 3-day road safaris are available, a fly-in safari might be worth considering despite its higher cost.
