Game Drive in Tarangire
Game Drive in Tarangire
The Tarangire National Park is just two and a half hours drive from Arusha. On the way there you will get a sense of the impressive vastness of Tanzania. In addition, you will pass through several small villages where locals sell their goods in small markets or by the roadside.
This National Park is not only home to migratory herds and various predators, but also hundreds of impressive bird species. So it's worth keeping your eyes open for the little things, too! The Tarangire National Park is also known for its spectacular baobabs (monkey-bread trees), as well as for its breathtaking views of the Maasai steppe and mountains to the south.

Explore the Largest Caldera in the World in Ngorongoro Crater
Explore the Largest Caldera in the World in Ngorongoro Crater
A full-day safari in the largest volcanic crater in the world promises unique experiences! The Ngorongoro caldera, with a diameter measuring up to 21 km, is not only populated by more than 360 bird species, but also up to 25,000 large mammals. Elephants hide in the thickets of the jungle on the crater walls, which can reach up to 600 m in height, while zebras, antelopes and buffaloes frolic in the unique landscape on the crater floor. The grasslands are crisscrossed by lakes, swamps, and forests – simply a paradise for wildlife. The Ngorongoro Crater is also the place you are most likely to see all the Big Five Elephant, black rhino, buffalo, lion and leopard. You will be particularly lucky if you discover one of the endangered black rhinos. What is special about the Ngorongoro Conservation Area is that, unlike other national parks, the Maasai can live side by side with the wildlife to continue their culture and rituals in the place in which they have been doing so for centuries.

Day 4
Game Drive in Serengeti National Park
Game Drive in Serengeti National Park
Today you will be in the Serengeti in search of wonderful animals. Your guide will use his trained eye to show you things that you wouldn't notice on your own. Of course, the elephant, lion, cheetah and the shy leopard are once more the focus of the search. Nevertheless, the pretty impala, the funny warthogs with their tails standing straight upright, hyenas, zebra- and buffalo herds and proud giraffes create beautiful photo opportunities, too. On the riverbanks you will find crocodiles and hippos. Rivers like the Grummet and the Mara River are big obstacles for the thousands of wildebeest and zebra during the animal migration, so dramatic scenes take place when they try to cross them. These are magical moments when columns of animals pass by and you feel the earth vibrating below their hooves.

Follow the predators and their prey in Serengeti
Follow the predators and their prey in Serengeti
Explore another part of Serengeti National Park, which has an area of about 14700 km². Your guide will discover some of the many predators and herbivores. However, not only the animals make charming photo opportunities, but also the different landscape forms. For example, the Seronera Plateau as the “heart of Serengeti”, which is dotted with Flat-topped Acacia trees. Have a look at the termite mounds, which are often used by cheetahs during migration as viewing points to spot the prey. In general, the open savannah grassland is an ideal hunting territory for lions, cheetah and leopards. It is also very impressive when an elephant herd crosses the way of your vehicle directly in front of you.
