Day 1
Arusha - Tarangire National Park
Arusha - Tarangire National Park
Your safari starts in the morning with a pickup from your hotel in Arusha, or directly from the airport if you arrive on an early flight. After meeting your guide, you will drive out of the town and head toward Tarangire National Park, passing through local villages and open countryside along the way.
Tarangire is known for its big baobab trees and large groups of elephants. You will spend the day driving through different tracks and stopping along the Tarangire River, which is where most animals go to find water. During the drive, you can expect to see elephants, giraffes, zebras, and waterbucks, as well as lions resting in the shade or near the riverbanks.
Around midday, you will stop at a designated picnic site inside the park to stretch your legs and have packed lunch. After lunch, you will continue with another game drive as you slowly make your way toward the park gates. In the late afternoon, you will leave the park and drive up to Karatu for your dinner and overnight.

Karatu - Ngorongoro Crater - Serengeti National Park
Karatu - Ngorongoro Crater - Serengeti National Park
You will wake up early in the morning for breakfast at your lodge in Karatu before checking out and starting your drive toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. From there, you will descend 600 meters straight down onto the crater floor for a half-day game drive. The Ngorongoro Crater is a massive collapsed volcano with a permanent water source, making it one of the best places in Tanzania to see wildlife up close because the animals stay inside the walls all year round. You can expect to spot lions resting in the grass, spotted hyenas, elephants, zebras, wildebeests, and hippos cooling off in the water pools. With luck, you might even see the rare black rhino.
You will stop for a packed lunch at the picnic site near the hippo pool. After lunch, you will drive back up the crater's steep walls and head across the open plains toward Serengeti National Park. You will enter the park in the late afternoon, enjoying a game drive on the way to your tented camp for dinner and overnight.

You will wake up early for a morning game drive in the Serengeti. The cool morning hours are the best time to see animals active before the heat of the day sets in. You will have a great chance to spot predators like lions, leopards, or cheetahs on the hunt, along with groups of grazing zebras, wildebeests, and antelopes spread across the open plains.
After several hours of exploring the tracks in the central Serengeti, you will stop for a warm lunch at your camp or enjoy a packed meal at a picnic site inside the park. Following lunch, you will begin your drive out of the Serengeti, heading back toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. You will do a game drive en route as you leave the Serengeti and then drive straight to Karatu to arrive in the late afternoon for dinner and your overnight rest.
