Safari Itinerary
Depart from your hotel and embark on a scenic drive to Tarangire National Park, famous for its large elephant and giraffe populations. Enjoy a game drive and a picnic lunch before settling into your campsite/tented camp/lodge for the night.
Design your perfect day in Tarangire! Choose between exciting game drives searching for wildlife and unwinding at your accommodation. Savor a delicious lunch either at your camp or as a picnic during a game drive, maximizing your time exploring the park. Return to your accommodation in the evening for relaxation, dinner, and another restful night.
Fuel up for the day with breakfast before departing Tarangire. Travel westward, crossing the vast Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA) without entering the crater today. As you reach the western border of the NCA, prepare to be awestruck by the sprawling Serengeti National Park. Enjoy a game drive filled with wildlife sightings, punctuated by a delightful picnic-style lunch break. Arrive at your campsite/lodge/tented camp in the late afternoon for relaxation, dinner, and a comfortable overnight stay.
Today is dedicated to exploring the vast and legendary Serengeti National Park. For an unforgettable and thrilling experience (additional cost, prior reservations required), consider embarking on an early morning hot air balloon safari, soaring above the plains as the sun paints the landscape with vibrant colors. Divide your day between exciting game drives and enjoying the amenities offered by your accommodation. Choose between a picnic lunch amidst the wilderness or a delicious meal served at your camp. Return to your accommodation in the evening for relaxation, dinner, and another night under the starlit African sky.
After breakfast, depart the Serengeti for a game drive as you head eastward, exiting the park and returning to the NCA. Explore the rich cultural heritage of the region by opting for an optional side trip (extra charge) to visit a traditional Maasai village and gain insights into their fascinating way of life. Alternatively, delve into the history of humankind with a visit to the Olduvai Gorge Museum, a significant paleoanthropological site. Enjoy a delicious picnic lunch amidst the breathtaking scenery. Reach your comfortable accommodation located near the Ngorongoro Crater, where you can relax, savor dinner, and spend the night. Be prepared for cooler temperatures at the crater rim. Pack a warm jacket, hat, and possibly gloves for added comfort during your stay.
Rise early for a hearty breakfast before embarking on a thrilling descent into the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Your safari vehicle will navigate 600 meters (2000 ft) down, leading you to a wildlife paradise. Spend several hours exploring the crater floor, renowned for its diverse wildlife population and breathtaking scenery. Witness a spectacular concentration of animals within the crater walls, offering incredible photographic opportunities. Enjoy lunch at a designated area near a lake frequented by hippos, graceful flamingos, and majestic cranes.
