Itinerary

Day 1 – Arusha to Tarangire

Meet your safari guide and fellow travellers in Arusha in the morning and depart for Tarangire National Park. After entering the park, begin your first game drive through landscapes filled with ancient baobab trees, open savannah and the Tarangire River. Tarangire is particularly famous for elephants, but you may also encounter lions, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, buffaloes, warthogs, antelopes and abundant birdlife. Enjoy a picnic lunch inside the park

Accommodation: Public Campsite

Day 2 – Tarangire Area to Serengeti

After an early breakfast, begin your journey towards the legendary Serengeti National Park. Travel through the beautiful Ngorongoro highlands before continuing towards the vast Serengeti plains. Once inside the Serengeti, your journey transforms into an afternoon game drive. Search the plains for lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, wildebeests, zebras and, with luck, the elusive leopard. Continue your game drive until evening before heading to the campsite.

Accommodation: Serengeti Public Campsite

Day 3 – Serengeti to Ngorongoro

Wake early and head out for another exciting Serengeti game drive. The morning provides an excellent opportunity to search for predators while wildlife is active and temperatures are cooler. Your driver-guide will explore productive wildlife areas according to current sightings and animal movements. After lunch, enjoy further wildlife viewing while gradually travelling towards the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Arrive near the crater rim in the evening for dinner and overnight.

Accommodation: Simba Public Campsite

Day 4 – Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha

After an early breakfast, descend approximately 600 metres into the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater. Explore the crater floor on an extensive game drive. The crater supports an extraordinary concentration of wildlife, including lions, buffaloes, elephants, hippos, wildebeests, zebras, spotted hyenas and numerous bird species. It is also one of the locations in Northern Tanzania where you may be fortunate enough to encounter the endangered black rhino. Enjoy a picnic lunch
