Day 1: Arrival in Arusha
Upon arrival to Kilimanjaro International Airport, you will be met with our representative, who will transfer you to your hotel in Arusha for dinner and overnight.
Day 2: Tarangire National Park
Early morning, after breakfast, your guide will brief you about the activities awaiting you in days to come. Shortly after, you will be taken for a ride to Tarangire National Park. Tarangire is considered as one of the best places to view elephants up close, not only because there are thousands of animals but also because they are not disturbed by the presence of vehicles. The park is also home to buffaloes, zebras and wildebeests which are always closely followed by a range of predators such as lions. Leopards are seen now and then but cheetahs are rarely spotted. From the open roof of the safari vehicle you will be able to absorb the landscape and watch the animals. In the late afternoon you will leave the park and drive to your accommodation to spend the night.
Day 3: Tarangire to Serengeti National Park
After breakfast, you will travel to the Serengeti National Park, and early afternoon you should reach the plains of the most famous wildlife reserve on the planet. Serengeti is the ultimate safari destination, with its endless plains and sights you have seen many times on TV, while watching the wildlife shows where lions or leopards are hunting their prey. You will have opportunity to up close and personal meet these magnificent animals in their natural environment. The park, together with Maasai Mara in Kenya is a main route of the great annual wildebeest migration, when millions of grazers start their journey in pursuit of the fresh grass in the south. You will surely enjoy every minute spent in this safari paradise.
Day 4: Serengeti National Park
This day is fully reserved for game drives around Serengeti national park.
Day 5: Serengeti National Park to Ngorongoro Crater
Early morning, after breakfast, you will check out and venture to Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The massive collapsed volcano crater is a home to over 25,000 mammals ranging from the “Big Five” – lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino and leopard to spotted hyenas, rare wild dogs and more than 500 bird species. After picnic lunch, you will descend into crater floor for a game drive. Later in the afternoon you will be taken to your accommodation for dinner and overnight at Karatu.
Day 6: Lake Manyara to Arusha
After breakfast, we will drive you to Lake Manyara National Park, one of the smallest wildlife reserves in Tanzania, but very interesting. Manyara provides the perfect introduction to Tanzania’s bird life, with more than 400 species have been recorded. If you are lucky, you will have opportunity to see tree climbing lions. Later in the afternoon after game viewing, you will be transferred to Arusha, where this safari ends.
