Day by day

  1. Day 1 Arrival in Arusha and Arusha National Park

    Meet your guide at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) or in Arusha town, then head straight to Arusha National Park, just 45 minutes from the city. Enjoy a game drive past Ngurdoto Crater, Momella Lakes and forest glades, where you can see giraffes, buffalo, colobus monkeys, flamingos and, on clear days, views of Mount Meru and Kilimanjaro. Return to Arusha for dinner and overnight in a budget hotel.

  2. Day 2 Arusha-Tarangire National Park

    After breakfast, the tour departs. Our first stop is Arusha Town for any last-minute purchases before we head off on safari. Afterwards, we head towards the Tarangire National Park for a game drive with a picnic lunch in the park. Tarangire is well known for its huge elephant population and baobab trees. It forms the center of an annual migratory cycle that includes up to 3000 elephants, 25,000 wildebeest, and 30,000 zebras. Dinner and overnight at Kizumba Campsite

  3. Day 3 Tarangire - Serengeti National Park

    After breakfast, depart for Serengeti National Park via the beautiful high-lying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. We leave the highlands behind and descend into the heart of wild Africa, the Serengeti National Park, with its endless plains stretching as far as the eye can see. Then we go to the central park area, known as the Seronera area, one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park, featuring the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife that is well representative of most of the Serengeti’s species. Arrive in time for lunch and enjoy an afternoon game drive in the Serengeti National Park. Dinner and overnight at the Nyani Campsite

  4. Day 4 Serengeti National Park Game Drive

    There’s no such thing as too many days in the Serengeti – today you’ll get to enjoy it all over again. This will be a half-day game drive in Serengeti National Park and a drive for dinner and overnight in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, ready for crater exploration the next day. Dinner and overnight will be at the Simba Campsite.

  5. Day 5 Ngorongoro Crater

    After an early breakfast, you will descend over 600 meters into the crater to view wildlife. Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthogs, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big draw to this picturesque national park is its dense population of predators, which includes lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopard, which sometimes requires a trained eye to spot. We will visit Lake Magadi, a large but shallow alkaline lake in the southwestern corner, which is one of the main features of the crater. A large number of flamingos, hippos, and other water birds can usually be seen here. Late afternoon transfer to Karatu.

  6. Day 6 Lake Manyara National Park- Arusha

    After breakfast, you will check out and depart with a packed lunch for an exciting game drive in Lake Manyara National Park. The lake takes up a large portion of the park, and the forest begins just after crossing the park gate, along the base of the Great Rift Valley, with the hot spring to the west. The famous tree-climbing lion, buffalo, giraffe, hippo, and baboon troops can all be found in the park. You will also see the magnificent pink flamingo, ostrich, Egyptian goose, and other animals. After your picnic lunch, you will go on an afternoon game drive and then to a Maasai village to learn about the Maasai people’s various activities and cultures. You will arrive in Arusha in the evening.
