Day 1: Arusha to Tarangire National Park

Your adventure begins with an 8:30 AM pickup from your hotel in Arusha. From there, you’ll head to Tarangire National Park for a full-day game drive with a picnic lunch. Known as Tanzania’s third-largest park, Tarangire is famous for its towering baobab trees and the Tarangire River, which attracts massive herds of elephants—some of the largest in Africa. Wildlife sightings may include lions, leopards, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, buffalo, oryx, eland, and lesser kudu. After the game drive, you’ll retire to your camp or lodge for a warm dinner and restful evening.

Day 2: Tarangire to Central Serengeti

After breakfast, you’ll depart for the legendary Serengeti National Park, traveling through vast, open grasslands. The Serengeti is one of the world’s greatest wildlife sanctuaries, home to the Great Migration and an abundance of predators. Enjoy a scenic afternoon game drive with a picnic lunch en route. Expect to see large herds of wildebeest, zebras, gazelles, and perhaps lions resting in the shade. The day ends with dinner and an overnight stay at your Serengeti accommodation.

Day 3: Central Serengeti to Ngorongoro Conservation Area

Start your day with a morning game drive in the Serengeti, taking in the rich wildlife one last time. Afterward, you’ll continue toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, enjoying a picnic lunch along the way. Arrive at the edge of the Ngorongoro Crater, the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Home to over 30,000 animals, the crater is a natural haven surrounded by extinct volcanoes and dotted with waterholes. Settle into your lodge for dinner and overnight stay.

Day 4: Ngorongoro Crater Tour & Return to Arusha

Your final safari day starts early, with a quick breakfast before descending into the Ngorongoro Crater in the morning. Spend five unforgettable hours exploring the crater floor, where you may encounter black rhinos, elephants, hippos, hyenas, lions, cheetahs, buffalo, and more. After a picnic lunch near the scenic Hippo Pool, you’ll begin the climb out of the crater and start your return journey to Arusha. Expect to arrive by late afternoon, where you’ll be dropped off at your preferred location—ending your safari with incredible memories and lasting impressions.
