Day 1

Tarangire National Park

Tarangire National Park

Your romantic adventure begins at 08:30 AM as your private guide picks you up from your hotel or the airport. Leaving the bustle of the city behind, you will head toward the Great Rift Valley, passing through vibrant Maasai villages and vast open plains that set the stage for your journey.

The journey to Tarangire takes approximately 2 to 2.5 hours. The drive is smooth and scenic, providing a wonderful introduction to the changing landscapes of Northern Tanzania.

Tarangire is a park of immense beauty and ancient energy, dominated by massive Baobab trees that have stood for over a thousand years. It is famously known as the "Elephant Empire," where you can watch large families of elephants bathing in the river and young calves playing in the grass. The park feels wild and secluded, making it perfect for couples.

Day 2

Central Serengeti National Park

Central Serengeti National Park

After an early breakfast, you will begin your journey toward the world’s most famous wildlife sanctuary. The route takes you up the misty slopes of the Ngorongoro Highlands, where the air is cool and the forests are lush, before dropping you onto the golden horizons of the Serengeti.

Entering the Serengeti is a life-changing moment. As you drive toward the Seronera Valley (Central Serengeti), the vastness of the landscape becomes apparent. This is the heart of big cat territory.

You will spend the afternoon tracking lions, leopards, and cheetahs that roam freely across the savanna. There is nothing more romantic than a Serengeti sunset; the sky turns shades of deep orange and violet as the silhouettes of acacia trees create a perfect African backdrop.

Main Destination:
Serengeti National Park
Best Time To Visit January to February and June to October (Different areas are best at different times)
High Season July to March (The Seronera area is crowded)
Best Weather June to October (Little to no rainfall)

Day 3

Serengeti National Park

Serengeti National Park

Waking up to "bush coffee" as the sun rises, you’ll enjoy a final, intimate morning immersed in the Serengeti's magic. This half-day is about quality over quantity, focusing on the park's most active hours for wildlife.

With your private vehicle, you’ll head out at dawn to track predators like leopards and lions before the heat of the day sets in. You have the flexibility to linger at a sighting or visit the vibrant Hippo Pools one last time. After a mid-morning game drive, you’ll enjoy a scenic picnic lunch on the plains before beginning your journey back. In the afternoon, we leave the Serengeti behind and drive toward the lush highlands of Karatu for the accommodation.

Main Destination:
Serengeti National Park
Accommodation:

  • Mid-range lodge located near Karatu (Town)

Day 4

Ngorongoro Crater

Ngorongoro Crater

Get up early for your last game drive in the unique Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, to take in the breathtaking natural beauty. It also has stunning views and abundant wildlife. As you explore the crater's depths, be amazed by its massive plains, thick forests, and shining soda lakes.

The Ngorongoro Crater is often called the "8th Wonder of the World," and for good reason. It is a self-contained paradise where the "Big Five" live in a natural amphitheater. This is your best chance to see the rare Black Rhino together. The wildlife viewing here is intimate and dense, with lions, flamingos, hippos, and giant bull elephants all sharing the crater floor. It is a powerful and beautiful conclusion to your honeymoon safari.

After a final picnic lunch by the Hippo Pool, we ascend the crater walls and drive back to Arusha or Kilimanjaro Airport (JRO) for your flight home.

Main Destination:

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