Itinerary
-
Day 1: Arusha - Tarangire National Park
- After breakfast, you will be picked up from the hotel by the driver/guide and drive to Tarangire National Park. Tarangire is well known for its large elephant herds. From the open roof of the vehicle, you will experience the seasonal swamps, savanna, and Tarangire River in search of many animals, including zebra, wildebeest, buffalo, elephant, and giraffe. It’s possible that you will catch a glimpse of a lion stalking its prey or leopards watching and relaxing in the trees above.
- After a full day in the park, you will drive to Sun Bright/Panorama/ Fig Big Tree Lodge and Campsite, where you will be able to relax and enjoy dinner and have an overnight.

Day 2: Transfer to Serengeti
- After an early breakfast, depart towards the most famous national park in the world, the Serengeti. The driving itself, although long, is spectacular. This will be an unforgettable moment for anyone seeing it for the first time. As you progress well into the Serengeti, you will see why the name means, in the local language, “endless plains”. The park has 6,900 sq. miles (18,000 sq. km), and for most of it, the plains will stretch to the horizon, defying your senses and perception of distances. It is the home of the Great Migration and to 2 million wildebeests, hundreds of thousands of zebras, and all kinds of antelopes. As for Big Cats and large predators, it’s the place of choice to look out for lions, cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas, with many television scenes like the famous river crossings having been filmed in this park.

Day 3: Game Drive in Serengeti
- Early in the morning, after breakfast, a full day in the Serengeti National Park. We are completely flexible with your preferences and this day will be organized according to your wishes. On every day of the safari, your guide will discuss with you the best timings for you, including the game drives and the wake-up time. For example, on this day, you could do a morning game drive, return to the amp/lodge for lunch and relaxation and finish with an afternoon game drive, or you could do a full-day game drive with a picnic lunch.
- After the game drive, you will be guided to the camp for rest.

Day 4: Transfer to Ngorongoro Conservation Area
- On this day, we suggest a very early wake-up to do an early morning game drive (when the animals are more active) and see one of the best sunrises you’ll ever witness.
- After the game drive, we return to the camp/ lodge for a rewarding brunch, and then we’ll proceed to Ngorongoro, the 8th wonder of the Natural World. The crater spreads for 102 sq. miles and has 2.000 ft. high walls, making it virtually Noah’s ark and inhabiting almost every species of wildlife that is indigenous to East Africa. It’s one of the very rare locations in the whole continent where you can witness the black Rhino. The crater has a river, several swamps, a soda lake with a great concentration of flamingos, a forest, and open plains. It’s also famous for its elephants, which are the largest in the world and have huge tusks. Ngorongoro Crater is truly a Wonder of the Natural World.

After lunch, you will go ahead with game drives inside this evergreen national park well known for its legendary tree-climbing lions. At the lake, expect to see the colourful flamingo flocks and many other aquatic species. The lake is also a hippo's haven.
