Tarangire National Park
Your safari begins with an exciting drive from Arusha into the wild beauty of Tarangire. As the city fades behind you, the landscape opens into classic African safari country filled with towering baobab trees, sweeping plains, and wildlife around every turn.

Keep your eyes open for giraffes, zebras, antelope, and the first predators of your adventure hiding in the golden grass. It is an unforgettable start, full of energy, scenery, and that first true feeling of being deep in the wild.

What makes this day even more special is that it can be enjoyed at your own pace. If you want to head out early for the best predator sightings, spend the whole day in the bush with a picnic lunch, or enjoy a more relaxed start before setting off for your game drive, the day can be planned to match your style of adventure.

Serengeti National Park to Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast, you enjoy one last game drive in the Serengeti as you begin your journey toward the Ngorongoro Highlands. This is often the kind of morning that brings a few final surprises, whether it is a pride of lions resting in the grass, elephants crossing the track, or herds of zebra and wildebeest glowing in the early light. It is a beautiful way to say goodbye to the endless plains while still keeping the safari spirit alive all the way through the drive.
This part of the journey can also be shaped around the kind of safari pace you enjoy most. If you want to spend more time searching for wildlife before leaving the Serengeti, your morning can focus on game viewing. If you prefer a smoother drive with time to enjoy the scenery and arrive at your lodge earlier, that can be arranged too. By late afternoon, you arrive in the Ngorongoro Crater for dinner and overnight, perfectly placed for the crater adventure waiting for you the next morning.
