Itinerary Details

Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you Guide/Driver will be waiting for by the arrival terminal; ready to introduce himself, brief you about your destination and help you with your languages. A comfortable air-conditioned vehicle will be there to transfer you straight to your luxury hotel.

After an early morning breakfast, you will depart Arusha from your accommodation and drive to Tarangire National Park, approximately two hours away. On the way you will pass bustling Maasai villages and the vast open plains that have become synonymous with images of Africa.

Often overlooked, Tarangire offers iconic safari scenery, from the large Baobab trees where elephants gather to escape the sun, to the Tarangire River lined with beautiful acacia trees. The Tarangire River is a vital source of water for the game there, and one of the few in the region that runs throughout all seasons making the park self-sustaining and frequently visited by the park’s large elephant population, zebras, and antelopes.

Once your morning game drive is complete, you can admire a great view of the river while you enjoy your lunch break at the picnic site. After your lunch break you will have the final game drive of the day as your guide tries to end it on a high note, searching for the animals you have yet to see.

After your day’s drive is done, you’ll drive to karatu town where you’ll retire to your accommodation

Activities & Excursions: Game drive

We’ll take an early breakfast, as we’ve got a big day of exploration and adventure ahead of us!

We’ll begin the day with the scenic drive towards the Serengeti. Along the way we’ll pass through the mist-shrouded rainforests of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area where you might be lucky enough to glimpse cape buffalo, baboons, or even elephants and leopards in the dense undergrowth.

It’s a nearly four-hour drive to the Serengeti park gates, but you can choose to break up the drive with one or both of the below optional activities:

Oldupai Gorge Museum: Sometimes known as the Cradle of Mankind, the Oldupai Gorge Museum commemorates some of the oldest evidence of human habitation ever found. Here you can see some of the oldest fossil evidence in the world of human habitation, visit the Oldupai Gorge Museum to learn more about the human journey, and take in the stunning views of this stark gorge country.

Maasai boma visit: Pay a visit to one of the famous Maasai bomas, where you’ll have the opportunity to witness (and participate in) traditional Maasai dance, tour an authentic Maasai village, and even do a little souvenir shopping at the local market.

Both of the above activities attract an additional cost. Speak with your safari expert about adding them to your itinerary.

After a delicious lunch at the Serengeti National Park picnic area, it’s time to explore the Serengeti itself. Witness Africa’s iconic savannah landscape and be amazed by the sheer number of animals that roam these grassy plains.

Dinner and overnight in the heart of the Serengeti National Park according to the standard and the type of accommodation requested from our options.

Activities & Excursions: Game drive, Maasai boma or Oldupai Gorge Museum.

After breakfast, we get right on the road back towards the Ngorongoro Crater National Park.

Our drive takes us back through the Serengeti via a different route, offering plenty of opportunities to spot the animals that eluded you on day two. As far as the eye can see, you’ll spot thousands upon thousands of animals in herds; wildebeests and zebras migrating together, tall and graceful giraffes, jumping antelopes and gazelles, the powerful African elephant and the most respected group of animals: the predators.

You will have the chance to spot lean cheetahs and shy leopards, foraging hyenas, and last but not least, the king himself; the lion.
