Best Days Tanzania Safari

Safari summary

On our 9-day Big Adventure safari, designed to showcase Tanzania's stunning diversity and rich wildlife. Your journey begins at Arusha National Park, where you'll explore the picturesque Lake Momella and encounter wildlife such as giraffes, warthogs, and buffaloes on a walking tour through lush landscapes. From there, you'll head to Tarangire National Park, renowned for its massive elephant herds and diverse wildlife. During the dry season, the Tarangire River becomes a hub for animals like lions, cheetahs, and a variety of bird species. Enjoy a picnic lunch and a relaxing evening in Mto wa Mbu.

On the third day, travel to Lake Natron, known for its striking saline environment and vibrant pink flamingos. The lake's unique ecosystem supports these magnificent birds and offers opportunities to explore salt marshes, freshwater wetlands, and sparkling waterfalls.

Day four takes you to Serengeti National Park, famous for its endless plains and incredible biodiversity. You'll pass through bustling towns and diverse landscapes before arriving at the Serengeti, where you'll enjoy a delicious dinner and prepare for the next day's adventure. On the fifth day, immerse yourself in the Serengeti's vast savannahs, where you'll have the chance to see the Big Five—lions, leopards, elephants, cheetahs, and buffaloes—up close.

On day six, after another morning in the Serengeti, travel to the Ngorongoro Crater. This UNESCO World Heritage site offers a unique opportunity to view wildlife within a volcanic caldera. You'll experience a high concentration of animals in a lush, protected environment, including zebra, wildebeest, and hyenas.

Day seven brings you to Lake Eyasi, home to the Hadzabe bush people, one of the last remaining hunter-gatherer tribes. You'll witness their traditional way of life and learn about their ancient survival techniques.

On the eighth day, return to Mto wa Mbu for a relaxing day before concluding your safari with a visit to Lake Manyara National Park. This park, nestled at the base of the Great Rift Valley escarpment, is known for its diverse landscapes, including golden savannahs and lush forests.
