Itinerary

We will pick you up from your hotel. After meeting your guide, chef, and fellow travelers, you'll embark on a 2-hour drive to Tarangire National Park, renowned for its diverse landscapes. The park is particularly famous for its ancient baobab trees and is home to the largest elephant population in Tanzania, offering unique opportunities to witness elephant families interacting. You'll enjoy a game drive through the park, focusing on areas where recent animal sightings have been reported (though spotting predators like lions, cheetahs, and leopards can be more challenging). You'll also encounter plenty of herbivores such as giraffes, wildebeests, and zebras throughout the park. After a delicious lunch, you'll continue with the game drive and plan to exit the park around 4:30 pm. From there, you'll head to your campsite for dinner and an overnight stay.

After breakfast, you'll depart from Mto wa Mbu for a 6-hour drive to Serengeti, with scenic stops along the way. The route passes through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, where you'll stop at the Ngorongoro Crater gate and viewpoint for a 20-minute break, offering stunning views. If interested, visit a Maasai village to explore the fascinating culture of the Maasai people, known for their warrior traditions and lion-hunting practices, now mostly faded but still intriguing. Arriving in Serengeti in the late afternoon, you'll enjoy a game drive around Seronera, where you might witness predators in action during sunset. You'll end the day with dinner and an overnight stay at Nyani Campsite.

After an early breakfast, you'll embark on a morning game drive to observe the diverse wildlife. In the afternoon, you’ll return to camp for lunch and pack up. As you exit the Serengeti, you’ll enjoy another game drive. Your journey will then take you to Simba Campsite, a 2-hour drive, located near the edge of the Ngorongoro Crater. From the campsite, you'll have the chance to spot animals in the surrounding area.

After a quick breakfast, you'll begin your descent into the crater, embarking on a search for the elusive black rhino. Due to the unique terrain of the crater floor, spotting rhinos can be quite challenging, adding to the excitement of the adventure. Following lunch, you'll head out for a game drive. Afterward, you'll ascend the crater and return to camp. There, you'll prepare your bags for the next leg of the journey, as you head to a camp near Lake Manyara National Park.

After breakfast, you’ll head to Lake Manyara National Park for an exciting game drive. You'll have the opportunity to observe a wide variety of birds. If you're fortunate, you may even spot the famous tree-climbing lions. You’ll also visit the hippo pool for a closer look at these incredible animals and explore the hot springs. During the game drive, you'll encounter a range of wildlife, including buffaloes, wildebeests, warthogs, vultures, eagles, monkeys, and more. Later, you’ll drive back to Arusha and check in at Jevas Hotel for an overnight stay, where you can relax and prepare for the next day’s adventure to Kilimanjaro.

A day trip to Mount Kilimanjaro offers an unforgettable experience. You'll begin with a scenic drive to one of the park’s gates, such as Marangu or Machame. Then, you'll hike through lush rainforests and diverse landscapes. While reaching the summit in a day isn't possible, shorter treks provide a glimpse of Kilimanjaro's stunning beauty. You'll enjoy the adventure and breathtaking views before returning to your accommodation in Arusha, where you will be dropped off for the evening.
