Day 1

Arusha to Serengeti National Park

Arusha to Serengeti National Park

You will leave Arusha early in the morning and travel to Serengeti National Park. You will travel to Serengeti on a road across the rim of Ngorongoro Crater, allowing for animal sightings along the way. The golden savannah and endless plains teeming with zebras, wildebeest, and giraffes make it easy to understand why the Serengeti is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa. On this day, you will enjoy a picnic lunch on Naabai Kopje (a small, rocky hill in a generally flat area), where you will have the opportunity to view the Serengeti’s famous pink-headed lizards. After lunch, you will proceed further into the plains for a leisurely game drive. You will spend the night at the Serengeti and fall asleep to the playful calls of the zebras and hyenas.

Your dinner and overnight stay will be in your accommodation.

Day 4

Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha

Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha

After an early morning breakfast, you will hurry to Ngorongoro Crater, as it is the best time to spot animals. On this day, you will enjoy a game drive around the crater and stop for a picnic lunch at a small lake within the park. The lake is home to many hippos and migratory birds, so guests will be sure to enjoy the visit! Due to the animal “oasis” created within the crater, there is a high possibility of spotting every member of the Big Five. The group comprises some of the strongest animals in Africa —the ferocious lion, the giant elephant, the stealthy leopard, the charging rhino, and the mighty water buffalo. Ngorongoro Crater is truly an amazing place. Beautiful storks, ibises, and cranes are popular water birds in the crater, a sight not to miss. After a lovely afternoon of animal sightings, you will finally start your journey back to Arusha.
