Day 1

Arusha

This is where all of your planning becomes a reality: your safari starts now. Tanzania is such a wonderful country when it comes to wildlife and beautiful landscapes. After we greet you and answer any questions you might have, we'll take great pleasure in taking you out and showing you what we mean.

Busy Arusha is an essential part of safari life here in northern Tanzania and most travelers pass through at some stage. Whether you’re on your way out on safari or here for a little longer, you’ll catch a glimpse of streets filled with energy and color.

Activity Day 1

You will be transferred from the airport in Kilimanjaro Airport.
We'll take you to your hotel.

Accommodation Day 1

Arusha Planet Lodge

Lodge

Staying at Arusha Planet Lodge means sleeping well far from the noise of the downtown area. The rooms are nicely sized with work desks and vivid safari colors offset by muted wood furnishings. Most of the balconies look out on the trees of the hotel grounds. You'll also find a good restaurant and bar onsite.

Day 2

Lake Manyara National Park

Lake Manyara is one of the most underestimated national parks in Tanzania’s northern safari circuit. Everything you’ll see here is on a different scale, at once compact (this is one of the narrowest parks in Africa) and epic (the Rift Valley escarpment towers over Lake Manyara’s western boundary). You’ll see plenty of baboons and elephants in the park’s thick evergreen forest, and watch for the tree-climbing lions that have become famous throughout Africa. Thanks to the proximity of lake, forest and rock walls, the birdlife will also tease out your inner birder – don’t forget your binoculars.

Activities Day 2

Morning

Transfer by Road, Arusha to Lake Manyara National Park

Take a guided game drive around the forests and along the lakeshore of Lake Manyara National Park, and look for elephants and tree-climbing lions, all in the company of an expert guide.

Accommodation Day 2

Kudu Lodge

Lodge

It can be difficult to believe that you're in the heart of Karatu, here at Kudu Lodge, close to Ngorongoro. Relax in the shade of the many trees, enjoy a drink at one of the garden tables, then go for a swim in the pool. The rooms are bright and large and all have mosquito nets. You're also well placed to explore the town on foot.

Day 3 & 4

Serengeti National Park

Welcome to the Unesco World Heritage–listed Serengeti, one of Africa’s top safari destinations. While you’re here, there’s an excellent chance that you’ll see leopards along the dry riverbanks, cheetahs out on the grasslands, and elephants, giraffes and all kinds of antelopes everywhere across the park. Watch also for the Serengeti’s famous lion prides. And that’s just the start. Some of the largest and most diverse wildlife populations on the planet roam the Serengeti, not to mention millions of wildebeest and zebras who migrate across the plains every year.

Ngorongoro Highlands (Day 3)

Temperatures are lovely and cool in Ngorongoro Highlands, which is perfect for exploring the forests, and seeing the wildlife (elephant, buffalo and maybe even leopard) and views.

Activity Day 3

Transfer by Road, Kudu Lodge to Serengeti National Park
Join us for a walking safari in Ngorongoro Highlands. Stepping out into the African wild on foot is very safe and brings a whole new level of excitement to your safari.
A guided game drive through Serengeti National Park is one of the best safari experiences you can have anywhere in Africa. Apart from the signature savannah grasslands and the park's amazing wildlife, your guide will show you all that's good about the Serengeti.

Activities Day 4

You'll be heading down more safari trails in search of animals in Serengeti National Park when we take you on a guided game drive. This is the best thing about many safaris, and you'll hopefully see many animals.

Afternoon

Share a sundowner with us in Serengeti National Park. It's the perfect way to end your day, a sunset view over a few drinks.

Accommodation Day 3 & 4

Embalakai Serengeti Camp

Tented camp

At Embalakai Camp you're immersed in the wild Serengeti alongside a river and with savannah views stretching to the horizon. The wood-floored, canvas-walled safari tents are safe and secure, but you can watch and listen to the wildlife as it passes right by your tent. You can also enjoy your meal or a drink under the stars. The location is the ideal Serengeti base as it is deep in wildlife territory but away from the other camps and lodges.

Meal Plan Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

Day 5

Ngorongoro Crater

Your first sight of Ngorongoro Crater is likely not one you’ll easily forget. As seen from the crater rim, this natural bowl, both vast and intimate, is one of Africa’s most beautiful natural features, stretching 19 green kilometers (12 miles) from one side to the other. Down in the crater itself, you’ll explore an astonishingly rich, self-contained ecosystem that is protected by high crater walls. Here, lions and hyenas hunt wildebeest and Grant’s gazelle within sight of elephants and black rhinos. Your day spent here will reveal a surprising variety of habitats, from the Lereal Forest and salty Lake Magadi to the plains that rise and fall gently all across the valley floor.

Activity Day 5

As we drive you to the next part of your safari, you'll be enjoying a game drive at the same time.
On this morning's guided game drive, we'll take you down into Ngorongoro Crater; the drive down is one of the most thrilling possible approaches for a day of wildlife viewing. You'll be down in the crater for most of the day looking for lions, hyenas, black rhinos and more.

Accommodation Day 5

Kudu Lodge

Lodge

Pass another night at Kudu Lodge as you travel between Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara.

Meal Plan Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

Day 6

Tarangire National Park

Wherever you go in Tarangire National Park, you’ll come across the park’s famous and larger-than-life baobab trees and elephants. These are the twin elements that give this park so much personality. There is, of course, so much more. We don’t just mean the huge populations of wildebeest, giraffes, hippos, buffaloes, baboons, vervet monkeys and zebras. Or the rugged landscape of rocky hills and rivers, swamps and savannah plains. You also have an excellent chance of seeing lions here – Tarangire is a real lion stronghold – and keep an eye out for leopards and cheetahs as well.

All good things must come to an end, and your time with us on safari in Tanzania will now draw to a close. We're sure that you've had a wonderful time.
