Day 2

Masai Mara

Masai Mara

A full day at the reserve with game drives. Opt for a balloon safari at extra cost of $450 per person. Your balloon ride safari trip begins when you get your wake-up call at your camp in the early hours of the morning, as you yawn away, and thoughts about your wildlife viewing from an elevated position begins to stir your mind. The fresh Kenyan traditional hot tea and coffee quickly awaken you, in fact preparing you for a "mission". By 6.00 a.m. you are almost arriving at the hot air balloon site in the Masai Mara. As you approach the site, the balloon seems bigger than you expected, the experience is one that has never been visited, and you are about to have a trip of a lifetime. Go searching wild-game with a beautiful Ariel view.

Day 3

Mara to Serengeti

Mara to Serengeti

Depart early morning after breakfast to Serengeti National Park through Isebania border arriving at Ikoma Tented Camp in time for lunch. Serengeti is Tanzania's oldest and most popular national park, also a world heritage site and recently proclaimed a 7th worldwide wonder, the Serengeti is famed for its annual migration, when some 6 million hooves pound the open plains, as more than 200,000 zebra and 300,000 Thomson's gazelle join the wildebeest’s trek for fresh grazing. Yet even when the migration is quiet, the Serengeti offers arguably the most scintillating game-viewing in Africa: great herds of buffalo, smaller groups of elephant and giraffe, and thousands upon thousands of eland, topi, kongoni, impala and Grant’s gazelle. In the evening you will back to the lodge for dinner and overnight.

Main Destination:
Serengeti National Park (Tanzania)
Best Time To Visit January to February and June to October (Different areas are best at different times)

Day 4

On Safari at Serengeti

On Safari at Serengeti

Full day at Serengeti National Park with game drives all day. The spectacle of predator versus prey dominates Tanzania’s greatest park. Golden-manned lion prides feast on the abundance of plain grazers. Solitary leopards haunt the acacia trees lining the Seronera River, while a high density of cheetahs prowls the southeastern plains. Almost uniquely, all three African jackal species occur here, alongside the spotted hyena and a host of more elusive small predators, ranging from the insectivorous aardwolf to the beautiful serval cat.
Dinner and overnight at Ikoma Tented Camp.

Day 5

Serengeti to Ngorongoro

Serengeti to Ngorongoro

After breakfast depart to Ngorongoro Crater with a game drive en-route arriving at Crater Lodge in time for lunch. The Ngorongoro Conservation Area spans vast expanses of highland plains, savanna, savanna woodlands and forests. Established in 1959 as a multiple land use area, with wildlife coexisting with semi-nomadic Maasai pastoralists practicing traditional livestock grazing, it includes the spectacular
Ngorongoro Crater, the world’s largest caldera. The property has global importance for biodiversity conservation due to the presence of globally threatened species, the density of wildlife inhabiting the area, and the annual migration of wildebeest, zebra, gazelles and other animals into the northern plains. Extensive archaeological research has also yielded a long sequence of evidence of human evolution and humanenvironment dynamics, including early hominid footprints dating back 3.6 million years. Dinner & overnight at Crater Lodge.

Main Destination:
Ngorongoro Crater (Tanzania)
Best Time To Visit June to October (Wildlife viewing is best)
High Season Most of the year – July to March (Expect crowds)

Day 6

Ngorongoro to Tarangire

Ngorongoro to Tarangire

After breakfast you will depart to Tarangire with a picnic lunch through Lake Manyara. Here at Manyara you will just have a stopover to watch birds & other wildlife. Lake Manyara provides the perfect introduction to Tanzania’s birdlife. More than 400 species have been recorded, and even a first-time visitor to Tanzania might reasonably expect to observe 100 of these in one day. Highlights include thousands of pink-hued flamingos on their perpetual migration, as well as other large water birds such as pelicans, cormorants and storks. We also have large buffalo, wildebeest and zebra herds in this park, as do giraffes – some so dark in coloration that they appear to be black from a distance. You will arrive at Tarangire in the evening checking in at Whistling Thorn for dinner & overnight.

Main Destination:
Tarangire National Park (Tanzania)
Best Time To Visit July to November (Animals come to the Tarangire River)
High Season June to October (The park is full of visitors)
Best Weather June to October (Little rainfall)

Day 7

On Safari at Tarangire

On Safari at Tarangire

You will have a full day at Tarangire National Park with game drives. Herds of up to 300 elephants scratch the dry river bed for underground streams, while migratory wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, impala, gazelle, hartebeest and eland crowd the shrinking lagoons. Tarangire Park is the greatest concentration of wildlife outside the Serengeti ecosystem - a smorgasbord for predators – and the one place in Tanzania where dry-country antelope such as the stately fringe-eared Oryx and peculiar long-necked gerenuk are regularly observed. In the evening you will come back to the Whistling Thorn Camp for dinner & overnight.
