Your safari adventure begins with a pick-up from your hotel in Arusha or from Kilimanjaro/Arusha Airport. From there, enjoy a scenic 3-hour drive to Tarangire National Park, a gem of Tanzania’s northern circuit renowned for its wildlife diversity and dramatic landscapes.
Upon arrival, embark on a full-day game drive, immersing yourself in the park’s rich wildlife. Stop for a hot lunch inside the park, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the African wilderness. Later, you will continue to Lodge for dinner and overnight accommodation, where you can relax and reflect on your first day in the bush.
Tarangire National Park is famous for its enormous herds of elephants—sometimes numbering up to 300—who scrape the dry riverbeds in search of water. The park also hosts a remarkable variety of other wildlife, including nomadic wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, impala, gazelle, hartebeest, and eland, making it a prime destination for predator sightings. Unique to Tarangire are dry-country antelopes like the fringe-eared oryx and long-necked gerenuk, while seasonal migrants add even more diversity to the ecosystem during the dry season.
After an early breakfast, pack your luggage into the safari vehicle and begin your journey to Serengeti National Park, with a game drive en route. Along the way, you will enjoy a hot lunch and catch breathtaking views of the Rift Valley and the Ngorongoro Crater, a photographer’s dream.
You will arrive in Serengeti around 3:00 PM, just in time for an evening game drive in Central Serengeti, where you can watch the spectacular African sunset over the endless savannah. After a day filled with wildlife and stunning scenery, enjoy dinner and overnight accommodation at Seronera Campsite within the park.
Rise early at 5:45 AM to enjoy breakfast and the stunning sunrise over the Serengeti plains. After breakfast, embark on an early morning game drive until around 11:30 AM, taking in the sights of predators and herbivores active in the cool morning hours.
Return to the campsite for a hot lunch, then pack your belongings in the safari jeep for the next leg of your journey. As you travel from the Serengeti to the Ngorongoro Crater, enjoy a scenic game drive en route, spotting wildlife along the way.
You will arrive at Simba Campsite in the Ngorongoro area in time for dinner and overnight stay, reflecting on a day full of adventure and unforgettable wildlife encounters.
Serengeti National Park is famed for its vast plains and the legendary wildebeest migration, involving over 1.5 million herbivores followed closely by predators such as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas. The migration moves across different areas of the park depending on seasonal droughts, and your expert driver-guide will ensure you experience a memorable encounter with this incredible natural phenomenon.
Wake up early at 5:30 AM for breakfast before descending into the Ngorongoro Crater floor, one of the most spectacular wildlife destinations in Tanzania. During your game drive, you will have the opportunity to see the Big Five—lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino—as well as diverse bird species, including flamingos, and the rare black rhino that resides in the crater.
Enjoy a picnic lunch inside the crater, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes and abundant wildlife. After a 6–7 hour game drive, you will ascend from the crater, passing through your campsite to collect your luggage. From there, continue the journey back to Arusha for your overnight stay or transfer to Kilimanjaro/Arusha Airport for your onward flight.
Your unforgettable 4-day safari adventure comes to an end. Additional accommodation can be arranged at an extra cost if you wish to extend your stay in Arusha.
