Arusha to Tarangire National Park

Your safari adventure begins early in the morning as you depart from Arusha and drive to the iconic Tarangire National Park, known for its majestic baobab trees and dense elephant population. Upon entering the park, you’ll embark on a thrilling game drive across its diverse landscapes, spotting herds of elephants, giraffes, buffalo, wildebeest, and perhaps even lions or leopards. Tarangire’s seasonal swamps and riverbeds attract an abundance of wildlife, especially during the dry season. Enjoy a scenic picnic lunch inside the park and continue your afternoon drive before heading to your lodge or tented camp just outside the park gates. As the sun sets behind the baobabs, settle in with a warm meal and prepare for a culturally rich day ahead.

Visit lake Eyasi the home on indigenous people

Today offers a rare opportunity to step into a world untouched by time. After breakfast, you’ll travel to the remote shores of Lake Eyasi to meet the Hadzabe people—one of the last remaining hunter-gatherer tribes in Africa. With a local guide acting as translator, you’ll learn about their way of life, join a traditional hunting expedition, and witness how they make fire using sticks. Later, you’ll visit the Datoga blacksmiths, known for crafting tools and jewelry from scrap metal using ancient techniques. This cultural encounter is not a show but a deeply authentic and respectful visit, where photography is welcome but mindfulness is encouraged. In the afternoon, return to your lodge near the Ngorongoro Conservation Area for dinner and an overnight stay.

Ngorongoro crater then back to Arusha

After an early breakfast, you descend into the Ngorongoro Crater—often called the "Eighth Wonder of the World." The world’s largest intact volcanic caldera offers a sanctuary to over 25,000 animals, including rhinos, lions, hippos, and vast herds of antelope. Enjoy a full game drive through this lush, wildlife-rich area with a picnic lunch beside the hippo-filled lake. The stunning views, cool temperatures, and compact geography make this one of the most rewarding safari spots in all of Africa. After the game drive, begin your relaxed journey back to Arusha, arriving by early evening—free from stress and full of unforgettable memories.
