Arusha to Tarangire National Park
Your tour starts right after breakfast! Before heading out on safari, the first stop should be Arusha town for any last-minute shopping. After that, you'll go to Tarangire National Park to go on a game drive and have a picnic there.
Tarangire is renowned for its abundance of baobab trees and its large elephant population. Situated in the acacia savannah, it serves as the hub of an annual migratory cycle that encompasses up to 3,000 elephants, 250,000 wildebeest, 30,000 zebras, lions, leopards, cheetahs, giraffes, ostriches, and warthogs. To locate the animals, our safari guide will take the safari Jeep everywhere. He'll fill you in on a lot of park knowledge. Make your way to the Tarangire River to search for wildlife that visits it for water. Additionally, it's also a good spot to see a hunt in action as the predators look for food here. Later in the evening, your safari guide will drive you to your accommodation.

Tarangire to Ngorongoro Crater
Your safari guide will take you straight to the Ngorongoro Crater by car after breakfast. To see the fauna, you will descend more than 600 meters into the crater. An abundance of water and food is available all year round in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, which is home to a diverse range of species such as herds of buffalo, zebras, wildebeests, antelopes, warthogs, hippos, and enormous African elephants. The abundant population of predators in this picturesque national park, which includes lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopard (which occasionally needs a trained eye to identify), is another major attraction.
You will also go to Lake Magadi, one of the primary features of the crater, which is a sizable, shallow alkaline lake in the southwest corner. Hippopotamuses, flamingos, and waterbirds in large numbers can typically be observed right here. You will go on a little walking safari around the hippo pool with your safari guide.
