The term “Big Five” means Africa’s Black Rhino, Leopard, Lion, Elephant and Cape Buffalo. Seeing the Big 5 close is a once in a lifetime experience since some of them are difficult to see. Up to now, still the Big Five refers to animals that roam and rule the wild plains of Africa. Comparing to other types of animals, Big 5 are few in number. Once you enter the park you become part of their world. Therefore you need to respect the territories that are theirs. Hope you came across the term Big 5 on the internet and it seems to be an attractive topic. Then to have a real picture and unforgettable experience about Big 5, I advise you to visit Tanzania and recommend the following safari program:

Where and how to see the Big Five during safari in Tanzania

Tanzania is a land like no other in the world. It has good landscapes, attractive wildlife and amazing mountains. All who visit either for Big Five safaris or other safaris remain inspired for a long time after their departure. Choosing a Big Five safari in Tanzania offers you the best and highest chance of seeing these beautiful animals. There are many countries in Africa in which you can see Big 5 animals, however Tanzania is the best.

Savannah Explorers as a tour operator in Tanzania has met many traveler’s expectations a time they chose them. Although life in the wild is unpredictable and sometimes nature does not cater to meet our demands. Hence not everyone will see all the Big Five as they live natural lives and are not always there available. But I am confident to recommend the Savannah Explorers team that they are able to fix your smile on this. Common Big 5 seen at Tarangire, Manyara are Africa’s lion, elephant and cape buffalo. You see Leopard in Serengeti and Black Rhino inside Ngorongoro Crater.

The Best SAFARI Itinerary to Spot The Big Five In Tanzania

Since many visitors consider a safari is not good without having witnessed and photographed the Big Five. So to make sure you have high chance to meet Big Five animals I suggest you explore some parks in the northern circuit of Tanzania, including Tarangire a home of Elephants, Lake Manyara well known for the tree climbing lions, the soda ash lake and its flamingos, Ngorongoro Crater a home to good populations of Black Rhino, Lion, Buffalo and Hyena, Serengeti the best place to encounter Leopard, Lion and Zebra along with healthy herds of Wildebeest and Lake Natron a breeding place for thousands of Rift Valley Flamingos and numerous waterfalls. These parks are full of amazing wildlife year round. I just mentioned a few animals and hopefully you will be lucky enough to see Big Five animals for this route.

Moreover, during this safari you will travel in a safari car 4×4 Land Rover or Toyota Land Cruiser with pop-up roof, binocular, fridge, inverter, mineral water on the car and professional guide who will be with you all the time. You can also experience early morning game drives. Overnight will be in lodges/camps that offer best service and safety to our guests and we regularly inspect those accommodations. We are based here in Tanzania, hence we will be in touch with you 24×7 during the safari to assist in any case or emergency.
