Safari summary

The Serengeti is every adventurer’s ultimate destination. These legendary plains teem with one of the densest concentrations of wildlife on earth. Equally magnificent is Tarangire National Park where elephant, wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, gazelle and their predators roam the baobab-studded landscape. Ngorongoro Crater is one of the largest calderas in the world and the place to see a black rhino if you are lucky. At night, retire in a lodge and camp with delicious food and first-rate service.

Itinerary

Zanzibar - Tarangire National Park

Tarangire

After early breakfast at your hotel, depart from Zanzibar to Arusha Airport. Upon arrival, you will meet your safari vehicle for Tarangire National Park. Tarangire National Park is Tanzania’s third-largest national park and sanctuary for an unusually large elephant population. Majestic baobab trees are an interesting feature of the park, dwarfing the animals that feed beneath them. Animals concentrate along the Tarangire River, which provides the only permanent water supply in the area.

After breakfast, depart for Serengeti National Park. Serengeti is famed for its annual migration, when some two million hooves pound the open plains, as more than 200,000 zebras and 300,000 Thomson’s gazelles join the wildebeest’s trek for fresh grazing, Also the Serengeti offers arguably the most scintillating game-viewing in Africa. See great herds of buffalo, smaller groups of elephants and giraffes, and hundreds upon hundreds of elands, topis, kongonis, impalas and Grant's gazelles.

Enjoy a full day of game drives around Serengeti. It opens onto the Serenora valley, a vibrant wildlife area at the heart of the Serengeti. The spectacle of predators versus prey dominates Tanzania's greatest park. Golden–manned lion prides feast on the abundance of plain grazers. Solitary leopards haunt the acacia trees lining the Seronera River. All three African jackal species occur here, alongside the spotted hyena and a host of more elusive small predators.
