Pick up from your hotel in Arusha, then safari briefing, and afterward we depart for Tarangire National Park. Your first experience of a safari will be the thrilling game drive through the vastness of Tarangire National Park. We’ll arrive in good time for lunch, and we’ll go on an afternoon game drive through the park. Later you will arrive to your camp which is inside the park for dinner and overnight at the camp/ lodge.
After breakfast, view game en-route to Serengeti National Park via Ngorongoro. Afterward, we visit the most famous wildlife sanctuary in the world – Serengeti National Park. The word ‘Serengeti’ means ‘endless plains’, which describes the park’s 5,600 square mile boundary. Yet for its sprawling area, the Serengeti does not disappoint when it comes to rich game-viewing. Annually, from May to December, millions of animals embark on a migration which brings them from central Serengeti to Kenya’s Masai Mara and back again in an incredible spectacle. Even during the ‘down-time’, vast herds of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle roam here, along with groups of elephant, giraffe, and buffalo. As the lions, leopard, cheetah, hyenas, and jackals stalk their meals, we enjoy a picnic lunch in this open arena. Dinner and overnight at camp/lodge.
Today will be the “Serengeti game viewing day”. After breakfast this morning, enjoy an amazing game drive. The great diversity of Serengeti wildlife is evident here—look for buffalo, hippopotamus, elephant, giraffe, antelope, Thompson’s and Grant’s gazelle, and lions. If you are there during the spectacular wildebeest migration, you will be more than astonished. In the late afternoon, we venture out in another game drive.
Everywhere there are animals, monkeys and, yes, birds…but look closely and you will be thrilled to see the huge jungle cats—lion, leopard, and cheetah—watching the world go by. And go by it does. You can see rhino, gazelle, antelope, and massive elephants by the hundreds. Animals in the trees, flying, camouflaged in the bush, in rivers, and in streams. This is the adventure of a lifetime! Dinner and overnight at camp/lodge.
After breakfast, depart on a morning game drive in Serengeti National Park with a picnic lunch, until noon, where you will have another game drive to see the beauty of this great park. In the afternoon after lunch, view game en-route to Ngorongoro Crater for dinner and overnight at the Ngorongoro Crater. Dinner and overnight at camp/lodge.
After early breakfast around 05:50 am, descend down crater at 06:00 am for full day game drive, with a picnic lunch. We venture onto the crater floor for an up-close view of the residents of this World Heritage Site, and we will enjoy a picnic lunch here. The Ngorongoro Crater provides great game-viewing all year-round. The wildlife here makes up a permanent population because grazing and water supplies are plentiful throughout the seasons. Dinner and overnight at camp/lodge.
Following breakfast, transfer to Lake Manyara National Park. There is a profuse amount of wildlife in this small national park, and the amazing bird watching experience will certainly be rewarding to both a devote and first-time bird watcher.
It is as well among the few places on the African continent to see the tree-climbing lions that will be your main quest for the day. Manyara in addition prides in a large flock of beautiful pink flamingos found near the lake. You will have lunch at the picnic site. Later drive back to Arusha to drop you at your hotel or the airport. End of service!
