Arusha – Tarangire National Park – Karatu
After an early breakfast in Arusha, meet your professional safari driver-guide and depart for Tarangire National Park, one of Tanzania’s most beautiful and diverse reserves. The park is famous for its large herds of elephants, towering baobab trees, and sweeping savannah landscapes.
Enjoy a morning game drive, spotting elephants, giraffes, lions, wildebeests, zebras, and countless bird species that inhabit the Tarangire River ecosystem. Stop for a picnic lunch at a scenic viewpoint overlooking the river.
In the afternoon, continue exploring deeper into the park — keep your eyes open for leopards resting in acacia trees or the endangered fringe-eared oryx. Later, exit the park and drive to the charming highland town of Karatu, set amid coffee plantations and rolling hills.
Settle in at Farm of Dreams Lodge, where you’ll enjoy a warm dinner and relaxing evening surrounded by lush gardens and views of the Ngorongoro highlands.

After breakfast, depart Karatu and drive through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, descending from the highlands toward the vast plains of the Serengeti National Park. Along the way, you may stop at the Olduvai Gorge Museum (optional, at an extra fee), where early human fossils were discovered — a fascinating window into human history.
Enter the Serengeti mid-day and enjoy an en-route game drive toward your camp. You’ll start seeing the park’s iconic wildlife almost immediately — gazelles, topis, buffaloes, elephants, lions, and possibly cheetahs patrolling the open plains.
Arrive at your luxury tented camp in time for lunch or afternoon tea. After settling in, head out for an evening game drive, when predators are often most active. Watch the golden Serengeti sunset before returning to camp for dinner and storytelling by the campfire.
