Itinerary

1. Day 1

   Fly from Zanzibar to Serengeti

   Early Morning you will take your flight from Zanzibar to Serengeti National Park (Seronera Airstrip). Upon your early morning arrival at Seronera airstrip, your private driver-guide will pick you up and you can start your safari in Serengeti National Park. The Serengeti is truly spectacular. It is famous for its vast open grasslands, which offer excellent wildlife sightings. The Serengeti is Tanzania’s oldest National Park and one of the oldest ecosystems on Earth. Its climate and vegetation have remained largely untouched for millions of years. Whilst the Serengeti boasts abundant wildlife, it is perhaps best known for the annual Great Migration. Vast numbers of wildebeest; accompanied by large numbers of zebra and antelope move in an annual pattern, constantly seeking fresh grazing. The precise timing of the Migration is entirely dependent upon the rainfall patterns each year. After Lunch and an extensive game drive, we head for our Tented partner lodges for dinner and overnight. Meal Plan Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

3. Day 3

   Serengeti National Park to Ngorongoro crater

   Early morning after breakfast, we continue with our en-route drive inside the Serengeti National Park before we depart to Ngorongoro crater. When you first see Ngorongoro Crater, it looks like a forgotten world. Concealed by the steep volcanic walls is a pristine wilderness including sweeping savannah, pockets of acacia woodland and glistening lakes and swamps. The Crater was created when a large volcano exploded and collapsed in on itself two to three million years ago. It is famous for both its geological delights and for being a natural reserve which is home to some of the densest large mammal populations in the whole of the African continent. The drive down the into the Crater is an adventure in itself and when you reach the Crater floor, you quickly find yourself amongst large numbers of wildebeest, zebra, gazelle, and more than 500 bird species. The Crater provides you with the best chance of seeing the endangered black rhino, which can sometimes be spotted in the open grasslands. After Lunch and an extensive game drive inside the crater, we head for our partner lodges in Karatu for dinner and overnight. Meal Plan Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

   Stay: Ngorongoro Farm House

4. Day 4

   Tarangire National Park to Arusha

   Early morning after breakfast, we depart to Tarangire National Park. The Park is named after the Tarangire River which runs through it. This ‘river of warthogs’ is the only source of water for wildlife in the region during the dry season. In places, the vegetation is quite dense, including elephant grass, acacia woodlands and lush groundwater forest. The Park is well known for its elephant families, which can often be seen congregating by the river. You may also see giraffe, bushbuck and hartebeest. These animals are closely followed by a range of predators, including lions and leopards. There are more breeding species of birds found in Tarangire National Park than anywhere else on the planet! After Lunch and an extensive game drive, we head back to Arusha.
