Itinerary

1. Day 1: Dar es Salaam to Serengeti National Park

   • On arrival at the Seronera Airstrip, you will meet your professional and well-experienced local English-speaking safari driver guide. After greetings, he will give you a short pre-safari briefing and then embark on a game drive in Serengeti National Park for a chance to see the great herds of wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles or a pride of lions lounging in the shade.
   • The Serengeti, at 15,000 square kilometers, is one of the largest parks in Africa. It is home to some 3 million large mammals and has a diversity of landscapes. The southern region is dominated by lush grassy plains that draw about 2 million wildebeest, half a million zebras, and some quarter of a million antelopes to make the hazardous journey in search of pasture when the autumn rains come.
   • 45Lunch, dinner and your overnight stay will be at Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge.

2. Day 2: Serengeti full-day game drive

   • After breakfast, you will continue with the game drive. You have the option to do a full-day game drive, or you can divide sessions into an early morning session, an afternoon session, and an evening session, which is for those who want to relax in the afternoon. However, for those wishing to see a lot, we advise heading out for the whole day.

3. Day 3: Serengeti to Ngorongoro Crater

   • After breakfast, you will drive to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. You will have a hot lunch at Serena Lodge. After lunch, you'll embark on an afternoon crater tour.
   • You'll descend 2,000 feet (over 600 meters) to the crater floor (more precisely, a caldera). This 304 square kilometer enclosed ecosphere was formed some 2 to 3 million years ago in the massive explosion of a volcano once higher than Kilimanjaro. It offers the best game-viewing opportunities in Tanzania.
   • You'll explore the forest areas inhabited by monkeys and elephants, the lake area, where you may see flamingos, and the open savannah, where lions hunt for food. With some 25,000 large mammals within the caldera, you will have the opportunity to see, in addition to the Big Five, animals such as wildebeest, gazelle, reedbuck, bushbuck, hartebeest, hippo, Grant’s and Thompson’s gazelle, impala, and over 500 bird species.

4. Day 4: Ngorongoro to Dar es Salaam

   • After breakfast, you will drive to Arusha. You will have lunch at the Forest Hill Hotel. After lunch, you will be transferred to Arusha Airport, where you will bid farewell to your guide and the incredible wilderness you have explored over the past 4 days.
   • As you board your flight, you will carry memories that will last a lifetime and a deep appreciation for the beauty and diversity of Tanzania's wildlife and landscapes.
