Your adventure begins after breakfast with a quick stop in Arusha town for any final supplies before driving to Tarangire National Park. With a picnic lunch in hand, you’ll enjoy a full-day game drive in a park famed for its giant baobab trees, large elephant herds, and a rich diversity of wildlife.
Tarangire is part of a vital migratory route for animals like wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles, especially in the dry season. After the game drive, you’ll continue to Mto wa Mbu, a small town near Lake Manyara, where you’ll enjoy dinner and spend the night in a budget camping site.
After breakfast, the journey continues through the scenic Ngorongoro Conservation Area toward the Serengeti National Park. You’ll stop briefly at the Ngorongoro Crater viewpoint for spectacular panoramic photos before continuing on to the Serengeti.
An optional visit to a Maasai village is available along the way (entry fee $10–$20 USD). There you can experience the culture of one of East Africa’s most iconic communities.
Arriving in the Serengeti by late afternoon, you’ll enjoy a thrilling sunset game drive in the Seronera region—famous for its predators and large resident game populations. As dusk falls, you’ll head to your campsite for dinner and an overnight stay under a star-filled sky.
Wake up early to the sounds of the wild and head out for a sunrise game drive in Serengeti. Mornings are an excellent time to see big cats on the move and herds grazing in golden light. You’ll return to camp for lunch and then begin the drive toward Ngorongoro, passing through the savannah and continuing your game viewing along the way.
By late afternoon, you’ll arrive at Simba Campsite, located on the crater rim, where you’ll have dinner and spend the night. Be prepared—wildlife often roams the campgrounds, making this a truly wild experience!
After an early breakfast, descend 600 meters into the Ngorongoro Crater for one of the most visually stunning game drives on Earth. Home to Africa’s Big Five—including the elusive black rhino—this collapsed volcano creates a natural enclosure for a dense population of animals.
After lunch at a scenic picnic site in the crater, you’ll ascend back to the rim and begin your journey toward Mto wa Mbu, near Lake Manyara. Settle into your camp, where dinner will be served.
On your final day, you’ll visit Lake Manyara National Park, a small but diverse reserve nestled beneath the Great Rift Valley escarpment. This park is famous for its large flocks of flamingos, hippo pools, and—though rare—tree-climbing lions.
You’ll enjoy a leisurely game drive through the acacia woodlands, visit the hot springs, and stop by the hippo pool for great wildlife viewing. After lunch, you’ll drive back to Arusha where your safari adventure comes to an end.
