Day 1

Tarangire National Park

Tarangire National Park

After breakfast, you will be picked up by the guide with lunch boxes and start a less than a 3- hours’ drive to Tarangire National Park. With its savannah, seasonal swamps and upside-down trees, it is well known for its large number of elephant herds. During the dry seasons the Tarangire River, being one of the main sources of water in the area, attracts various animals. After an extensive game drive, enjoyed from the open roof of the vehicle, you will leave the park and travel to Karatu for overnight.

Main Destination:
Tarangire National Park
Best Time To Visit July to November (Animals come to the Tarangire River)
High Season June to October (The park is full of visitors)

Day 2

Karatu - Serengeti

Karatu - Serengeti

After breakfast, we will head toward the Serengeti National Park via the beautiful high-lying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leaving the highlands behind, we descend into the heart of wild Africa - the Serengeti National Park - with its endless plains rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see.

We will head to the central park area, known as the Seronera area, one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park. It features the Seronera River which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife well representative of most of the Serengeti’s species. We will arrive in time for lunch and enjoy an afternoon game drive in the Serengeti National Park. Dinner and your overnight stay are at the Seronera Campsite.

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)

You can expect to see lions, wildebeests, leopards, impalas, elephants, crocodiles, zebras and many more. In the late afternoon, drive to Ngorongoro and enjoy an en-route game drive for 3 hours.

Day 4

Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha City

Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha City

After breakfast, descend into the crater, enjoy 5 hours game drive in the crater. The Ngoro Ngoro Crater is one of the most densely crowded African wildlife areas in the world and is home to an estimated 30,000 animals including some of Tanzania's last remaining black rhino.

Supported by a year round water supply and fodder, the crater 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 its huge population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs and the ever-elusive leopard. We will enjoy a picnic lunch on the crater floor.

Later afternoon drive back to Arusha and drop off at your hotel.
