Arusha National Park

The first glimpse of Ngorongoro Crater is likely to be unforgettable. From the crater rim, you will see a vast and intimate natural bowl stretching 19km (12mi) from one side to the other, making it one of Africa's most beautiful natural features. You will explore a rich, self-contained ecosystem protected by high crater walls inside the crater. Lions and hyenas hunt wildebeest and Grant's gazelle within sight of elephants and black rhinos. The day spent here will reveal a surprising variety of habitats, from the Lereal Forest and salty Lake Magadi to the plains that rise and fall gently across the valley floor.

Later in the evening, you will drive to the Serengeti for an overnight stay, eagerly anticipating tomorrow's big adventure. You will deepen your understanding of the Serengeti and its diverse wildlife with another full day immersed in its wild beauty.

From the lush green vegetation around the Great Rift Valley, the environment will slowly change into dry, arid and dusty landscapes.

The closer you get to Lake Natron, the more you will see remains of old volcanoes rise around you, it seems almost unearth-like! You will drive by one of the few active volcanoes—Ol Doinyo Lengai, which means "The Mountain of God" in the Masai language.

While here you have couple of activities that you can opt to do being Flamingo walking tour, Waterfalls Visit or Mountain Climbing as well as Maasai Boma Visit.

Northern Serengeti

Northern Serengeti

Full Day

There's nothing that can compare to going on a guided game drive through the Northern Serengeti, where your guide will take you looking for wildlife amid the beautiful landscapes.
Serengeti is one of the oldest and the largest best parks in Africa.
Serengeti is one of the most famous wildlife areas in the world with the greatest concentration of wild animals on the planet! This world-renowned park is a sanctuary for the last remaining annual mammal migration in the world. Serengeti National

Park is Africa’s most famous park due to the largest concentration of game on the continent and the migration of millions of wildebeest. Serengeti comes from the Maasai language meaning ‘endless plains’ and this rightly describes it. With almost 15,000sq km (6,000sq miles), Serengeti National Park is the second-largest park in Tanzania.
Meals and your overnight stay are at the Camp.

Best Time To Visit January to February and June to October (Different areas are best at different times)

Day 7-8

Central Serengeti

Central Serengeti

You never quite know what you'll see on your guided game drive in the Central Serengeti as your guide takes you through some of Tanzania's best wildlife country.
After breakfast you will start the safari by being transferred to the central part of the Serengeti (also called Seronera).
Here your driver will try to find the animals you're the most interested in. Closer to lunch time you will visit the Serengeti Visitor Centre, where you will be offered a lunchbox and provided with lots of interesting information not only about the animals’ populations, but also about the history of the National Park.

It is difficult to describe in detail all the animals of the Serengeti plains, for they number in the thousands: elephants, buffalo, ostriches, giraffes, jackals, hyenas, lions, antelopes, leopards and cheetahs—just keep your eyes peeled and enjoy the nature around you.
In the evening you will be transferred to a lodge, where you will have dinner and be able to rest.

Day 9

Ngorongoro Crater

Ngorongoro Crater

Full Day

Your guided game drive down into and around Ngorongoro Crater, is one of the best safari experiences you can have in East Africa. Watch for lions, hyenas, black rhinos and more as you spend most of the day exploring the crater floor.
After breakfast at the lodge do we depart to Ngorongoro Conservation Area.

Supported by a year round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro National Park supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park, is it’s dense population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs and the ever-elusive leopard, which sometimes requires a trained eye to spot. We will visit Lake Magadi, a large but shallow alkaline lake in the southwestern corner, which is one of the main features of the crater.

A large number of flamingos, hippos and other water birds can usually been seen here.

Main Destination:
Ngorongoro Crater
Best Time To Visit June to October (Wildlife viewing is best)
High Season Most of the year – July to March (Expect crowds)
