Tap any day to expand. Early morning & late afternoon game drives when wildlife is most active.
You’ll be picked up from your hotel in Arusha at 8:30 AM and head to Tarangire National Park for a full-day game drive with picnic lunch. Known for baobab trees and large elephant herds, the park also hosts lions, leopards, giraffes, zebras, and more. Later, transfer to your lodge for dinner and rest.
After breakfast, head to Serengeti, crossing the endless plains teeming with wildlife. Enjoy an afternoon game drive spotting wildebeest, zebras, gazelles, or lions. A picnic lunch will be served on the way. End the day with dinner and a restful night at your lodge, with stunning sunset views over the Serengeti – truly a magical place.
After breakfast, begin a full-day game drive in Central Serengeti, known for its dense wildlife and predator sightings. Explore the Seronera area, rich with lions and leopards drawn to the Seronera River. Enjoy a picnic lunch en route. The day ends around 5 PM with dinner and a relaxing overnight stay at your lodge.
Wake early for tea or coffee, then enjoy a hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti at sunrise. After landing, begin a game drive with a packed breakfast, exploring quieter eastern areas rich with predators. Continue the game drive until early afternoon, then drive to Ngorongoro Conservation Area with wildlife sightings en route.
After breakfast, your safari guide will drive you to Ngorongoro Crater, where you'll descend over 600 meters to explore its wildlife-rich floor. The crater hosts wildebeest, zebras, buffalos, hippos, elephants, and predators like lions, hyenas, and leopards. Visit Lake Magadi, home to flamingos and waterfowl, then enjoy a short walking safari near the Engutoku Tok hippo pool. Afterward, proceed to your accommodation for the evening.
Your final safari day begins at 8:00 AM after a delicious breakfast. You'll head to Lake Manyara National Park for a half-day game drive starting around 9:00 AM. Drive through lush forests of acacia and mahogany, keeping an eye out for buffaloes, giraffes, baboons, blue monkeys, and—if lucky—tree-climbing lions. In season, flamingos paint the lake pink, creating a magical view. Around midday, enjoy a picnic lunch in the park. The game drive continues until mid-afternoon, after which you'll proceed to Arusha. Expect to arrive around 6:00 PM, where you'll be dropped off at your preferred location. With incredible memories and new experiences, it’s time to bid farewell to your safari team.
