Safari summary

If you only have 3 days but still want to visit the most famous parks of Tanzania (Serengeti and Ngorongoro) this is the perfect tour for you. You will only spend one night in Serengeti, which we usually think it's too little, but if your timeframe is short and you really want to visit this amazing park, then it is the right choice for you.

Itinerary

Serengeti National Park

After an early breakfast, you will depart from Arusha towards the most famous National park in the World, the Serengeti. The driving itself, although long, is spectacular. You will drive up the crater highlands, making a quick stop at the rim for an out of this world view of Ngorongoro Crater. This will be an unforgettable moment for anyone seeing it for the first time. As you progress well into the Serengeti, you will see why the name means, in the local language, "endless plains".

Acacia Central Camp Mid-range tented camp

Serengeti National Park to Ngorongo

On this day we suggest a very early wake up in order to do an early morning game drive (when the animals are more active) and see one of the best sunrises you'll ever witness. After the game drive, we return to the camp for a rewarding brunch and then we'll proceed to Ngorongoro, the 8th wonder of the Natural World. The crater spreads for 102 sq. miles and has 2.000 ft high walls, making it virtually Noah's ark and inhabiting almost every species of wildlife that is indigenous to East Africa.

Rhino Lodge Mid-range lodge located on the crater

Ngorongoro Crater

We will start the day very early and descend into the crater floor for an incredible morning of wildlife in one of the most stunning places on Earth. After the game drive, there will be time for a picnic lunch near the beautiful hippo Lake. After lunch, we will have time for a short game drive and then ascend the crater and exit Ngorongoro Conservation Area towards Arusha. We expect to be back in Arusha around 5pm although we are flexible in case there is a flight to catch or another situation.
