Itinerary

Arusha - Ngorongoro Crater

Ngorongoro Crater

Our driver will pick you up from your hotel in Arusha with a picnic lunch en route to a full-day Ngorongoro Crater tour. You will be taken 2000 feet down the crater by a 4WD vehicle. Explore the crater before ascending and driving to your lodge set on a crater rim. The Ngorongoro Crater is often called Africa's Eden and the "8th Natural Wonder of the World." A visit to the crater is a main drawcard for tourists coming to Tanzania and a definite world-class attraction and beauty.

Pick up from your lodge or camp after breakfast and then transfer to Serengeti North. The park is well known for its healthy stock of other resident wildlife, particularly the "big five", named for the five most prized trophies taken by hunters: Lion: More than 3,000 lions live in this ecosystem. African Leopard: These reclusive predators are commonly seen in the Seronera region but are present throughout the national park, with a population of around 1,000. African Elephant.

After breakfast at the camp, depart with your picnic lunch for a game drive and to view the great migration. Serengeti National Park's resident wildlife numbers are exceptionally high in the Wagakuria area, with prides of lions up to 30 strong; however, from August to October, the area turns into a wildlife paradise. The key feature is the Mara River, and it is not uncommon to see the herds cross the Mara River north one day and then back south a few days later.

After breakfast, enjoy a fantastic full day of game drives at the Mara River, viewing the great migration river crossing. In the evening, back to the camp for the evening bonfire, dinner, and overnight. River crossings at Kogatende start to occur every day in August as the mega herd settles into the area. From August to October, game viewing up here is superb, with river crossings pretty much guaranteed every day.
