Welcome to Tanzania! Upon your arrival at the airport, you’ll be greeted by your friendly GreyJoy Safari Adventures driver-guide who will escort you to your accommodation in Arusha.

Explore Tarangire National Park

Tarangire

After a restful night and a hearty breakfast, we set out for Tarangire National Park, just a short drive away. Known for its ancient baobab trees and massive herds of elephants, Tarangire offers a completely different landscape compared to other parks. During the dry season (June to October), the Tarangire River becomes a lifeline for wildlife, drawing elephants, antelope, zebras, lions, giraffes, and countless bird species. Keep your camera ready—this is a photographer’s dream!

Discover the Wonders of Ngorongoro

Ngorongoro Crater

Wake up early for an exciting day exploring the legendary Ngorongoro Crater. As you arrive at the crater rim, take a moment to soak in the breathtaking view of this ancient caldera— The crater is home to an incredible diversity of wildlife, including the Big Five. It’s one of the few places where you have a good chance of spotting the endangered black rhino. You will also encounter zebras, wildebeests, buffaloes, hyenas, elephants, and more during your game drive inside the crater.

Africa Safari Karatu

Scenic Drive to Lake Natron

Today, embark on a scenic road trip through northern Tanzania toward the remote and mystical Lake Natron. Departing from Karatu after breakfast, the journey takes you through ever-changing landscapes—from verdant hills to dusty plains. As you pass remote Maasai villages and volcanic formations, you’ll approach Ol Doinyo Lengai, the “Mountain of God,” which is still an active volcano. Eventually, you’ll arrive at Lake Natron, a surreal landscape with mineral-rich waters and crimson hues.

This morning, take a guided walk with a Maasai tribesman along the shores of Lake Natron, in search of the lesser flamingo. Lake Natron is home to up to 2.5 million flamingos during peak breeding months. After your walk, set off westward toward the Serengeti. Along the way, stop at Africa Safari Maasai Boma, where you’ll experience authentic Maasai culture and traditions. Later in the afternoon, enjoy a game drive through the Pololeti Game Reserve, a wildlife-rich area adjacent to the Serengeti

After breakfast, begin your journey into the heart of Serengeti National Park. As you traverse the vast plains, your driver-guide will track wildlife movements to maximize sightings. En route, you’ll enjoy a picnic lunch in the wild before reaching Africa Safari Serengeti Ikoma, just outside the park boundary. This eco-friendly lodge offers canvas-tented rooms, giving you a true “glamping” experience in the African bush.

Today, you’ll enjoy a full-day game drive across the Serengeti’s endless plains—a name that translates to “the place where the land runs on forever.” Wake up to the sounds of the wild and head out in search of predators, grazers, and the great migration (season dependent). Your guide will take you through various ecosystems, from riverine forests to open savannahs, where lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, and more roam freely
