Day 1

Arusha

It's time to begin your safari. Welcome to Tanzania! After we greet you and provide you with the trip briefing, we'll take you out to help you discover why so many people think Tanzania is the best place in Africa to go on safari.

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.

Activities Day 1

You will be transferred from the airport in Kilimanjaro Airport.
Transfer time; about 90 minutes

Afternoon

Our expert guide will take you on a tour in Arusha this afternoon.

Accommodation Day 1

A convenient Arusha city center location is just the start at Gran Melia Arusha. Some of the rooms have fabulous views of shapely Mount Meru off in the distance, while the rooms themselves are excellent. There's an onsite restaurant, and the spa and wellness center is perfect for relaxing after a long day on the road.

Day 2 & 3

Tarangire National Park

We think you’ll be impressed with Tarangire National Park. Most visitors love the distinct shapes of the baobab trees silhouetted against the sky that make this place feel like a fairy-tale African landscape. Or visitors remember the elephants that roam in family bands everywhere throughout the park. If you’re lucky, you’ll also encounter the big cats – lions especially, but also cheetahs and leopards – that are always a possibility here. And there’s a fair degree of certainty that you will tick wildebeest, giraffe, hippo, buffalo and zebra off your wildlife-viewing list.

Activity Day 2

Come with us as we look for lions, elephants and so much more amid the baobab trees and classic safari scenery of Tarangire National Park.

Activity Day 3

All Day

Relax and generally take it easy to allow yourself to both process and recover from all of the excitement that you’ve enjoyed on your safari so far.

Stay in classy Meru-style safari tents with wooden floors and relax in your own private sitting area with views of zebra, elephant and even lions wandering past. The friendly staff will make you feel at home from the moment you arrive.

Meal Plan Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner Drinking water Non-alcoholic drinks

Day 4 & 5

Serengeti National Park

Discover just why so many safari visitors fall in love with the Serengeti. Keep an eye out for big cats, even bigger elephants, and almost every kind of safari wildlife you can imagine. You might also see giraffe, impala, zebra, wildebeest, buffalo, hundreds of species of birds, and that may all just be before breakfast. You’ll never forget watching these animals interact, whether you see a hunt, a vast herd or a mother protecting her cub or calf. The Serengeti’s scenery is also unforgettable – observe Africa’s iconic acacia trees, the park’s golden grasslands and great piles of boulders known as kopjes.

Ngorongoro Highlands (Day 4)

High in the Ngorongoro Highlands, you can expect beautiful views, dense forests and cool temperatures. Apart from Ngorongoro Crater, there are plenty of dramatic land formations, with steep-walled craters and high, rocky summits a feature. Watch for wildlife also in the forests, including elephants, buffaloes and, if you're extremely lucky, leopards.

Early Morning Game Drive, Serengeti National Park

There is so much to look forward to when you go with us on an early morning game drive in the Serengeti. Along with late afternoon, it's the time of day when animals are most likely to be active. Combined with the pretty morning light, these conditions can make for some great photos. It should also be the coolest time of day for exploring.

The designer villas are super-stylish and the food here is first-class.

Day 8

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 8

Come with us on a guided game drive through Lake Manyara National Park. The park is famous for its elephants and tree-climbing lions, and we hope you'll see both.
