Day 1
Arusha to Tarangire National Park

Drive through the “land of giants”, Tarangire National Park. Drive across the endless golden savannah that grazes along the Tarangire River. This national park is known for its elephants and sprawling baobab trees. Enjoy a picnic lunch at the picnic site and take in the remarkable view of the Tarangire River. Keep a close eye on your lunch, as the monkeys won’t hesitate to get away with a tasteful treat if given the chance.

The action-packed game drive will end late in the evening. You will now head towards your choice of accommodation, where a freshly prepared dinner awaits. Ensure you get some good rest and recharge yourself for another eventful day.

Day 2
Mto wa mbu to Serengeti National Park

We depart early after breakfast, head across the Great Rift Valley floor, up the escarpment, and traverse the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Enjoy the pleasant and scenic drive as you experience the beautiful scenery and breathtaking vistas on your way to the Serengeti.

Arrive in the Serengeti for an afternoon game drive until late. Lunch is taken at one of the picnic sites, most likely at the Naabi Hill Gate, where you can stretch your legs.

Visit the famous Maasai bomas to get close to the Maasai community. Participate in traditional Maasai dance and walk in the Maasai village. Their culture is well known for hunting lions, and to be considered a warrior, they drink raw cow blood (though these traditions are things of the past, except for drinking blood). You can also do some souvenir shopping at the local Maasai market.

The sunrise in the Serengeti is breathtaking, with the rising sun appearing to set the plains on fire. We explore the infinite Serengeti grasslands after lunch at the picnic site. After that, we will set out for Ngorongoro to your choice of accommodation, where a freshly prepared dinner awaits you. Ensure you get some good rest and recharge yourself for another eventful day.

Ngorongoro Crater

Experience a one-of-a-kind drive inside an ancient volcano packed with incredible wildlife and right in the heart of the action. After an early breakfast, we will start our much-anticipated trip to Ngorongoro Crater.

The earlier you descend to the crater floor, the higher your chances of spotting rare species like black rhinos. Spend the majority of the morning visiting the Ngorongoro Crater. With its 600-to 650-meter-high walls, it resembles a natural zoo and has the highest concentration of wild animals.

Following your picnic lunch, most likely at the designated picnic place beside the hippo pool, you will drive up the crater rim and out of the conservation area.

Bird lovers will find Lake Manyara an absolute delight, with many birds on display. Since it’s a birding destination, you will not only be amazed but also surprised by large flocks of flamingos and many other varieties of birds. The park is a photographer’s playing field and provides some of the finest game views in the world. After enjoying the tour, you will be driven back to Arusha, where the tour will end.
