Day 1

Arusha to Tarangire National Park

Arusha to Tarangire National Park

On arrival in the morning at Arusha Airport, our friendly guide will welcome you and provide a brief safari introduction over breakfast near the airport. Afterward, you'll enjoy a scenic 1.5-hour drive to Tarangire National Park, famously known as the “Home of Giants” for its impressive elephant herds and majestic baobab trees.

Once inside the park, your safari adventure truly begins. You'll explore the vast plains in search of elephants, lions, zebras, giraffes, and, with some luck, leopards lounging in the trees. The Tarangire River draws a remarkable concentration of wildlife, creating some of Tanzania’s most picturesque landscapes. With over 400 bird species, the park is also a paradise for bird enthusiasts.

By late afternoon, you'll arrive at your lodge, where you will be welcomed with a traditional Maasai dance. The lodge offers stunning views of both sunrise and sunset. After settling in, you'll enjoy a delicious dinner and relax for the night.

Day 2

Final Game Drive in Ngorongoro Crater then Drive back to Arusha

Final Game Drive in Ngorongoro Crater then Drive back to Arusha

You'll wake early to enjoy the sunrise from your room, followed by breakfast. You’ll depart from the lodge at 06:50 AM and begin your journey toward the Ngorongoro.

Your day in and around the Ngorongoro Crater may well become one of the most unforgettable highlights of your entire safari. After stopping at the crater rim for panoramic views, you will descend onto the crater floor, home to an extraordinary concentration of wildlife. The critically endangered black rhino is one of the crater’s most prized sightings, while large-tusked elephants, one of the crater’s four lion prides, and clans of spotted hyenas are commonly seen.

The crater itself is breathtaking: a natural amphitheater of steep, lush green walls surrounding open plains, a shimmering salt lake, acacia forests, and hippo-filled wetlands, truly one of Africa’s most spectacular landscapes.

After lunch, you’ll begin your drive back to Arusha, where our safari ends.
