Kilimanjaro International Airport to Tarangire National Park

Your driver guide will meet and pick you up at Kilimanjaro International Airport. From here, embark on a two-hour drive to Tarangire National Park. In Tarangire, you will see giant baobab trees, bush savannahs, and seasonal marshes, all adding to the wonder of this spectacular park. The Tarangire National Park is considered one of the best places to view elephants up close. The park is also home to buffaloes, zebras, and wildebeests, which are always closely followed by a range of predators such as lions. Leopards are seen now and then, but cheetahs are rarely spotted. From the open roof of the safari vehicle, you will be able to absorb the landscape and watch the animals. In the evening, you reach your lodge inside the park.

Karatu to Serengeti National Park

After breakfast, you will travel via the cooler highlands towards the southern Serengeti, and at midday, you will reach the plains of the Serengeti National Park. Serengeti is the largest park in Tanzania and has a diversity of habitats and landscapes—short grass plains, savannah, thick bush, swamps, and lakes. Bizarre rock formations called kopjes dot the grassy landscape where predators are often seen. The Serengeti is famous for its yearly migration when hundreds of thousands of wildebeests and zebras trek to find fresh grass and water.
