Day 1

Tarangire National Park

Tarangire National Park

Karibu Tanzania! Today our guide will collect you after breakfast from your hotel to start your safari. He will brief you about the safari, the schedule and what to expect. The drive to Tarangire will take about 2 hours. Enjoy the beautiful views of the local villages and Maasai herds on the way.

If you’ve never been to Tarangire (and even if you have) you’re in for a real treat. Tarangire is filled with giants – baobab trees all across the park, as well as elephants. Of the big cats, you’ll probably see lions, cheetahs and leopards are around too. Watch out for the wildebeest, giraffes, hippos, buffaloes and zebras. Our guide will take you off the beaten track and share stories about the park and the natural world around you.

As you enjoy your meal at the picnic site, the sound of birds singing and the rustling of leaves in the wind will add to the peaceful and serene atmosphere of the moment. Later we leave Tarangire behind us and drive towards the beautiful Marera Valley Lodge.

Day 2

The Ngorongoro Crater

The Ngorongoro Crater

A game drive in the Ngorongoro Crater is a highlight of any safari adventure in Tanzania. This unique natural wonder is home to an incredible array of wildlife, from herds of grazing antelope to majestic lions and towering elephants.

Journeying through the crater on a game drive, you'll have the chance to spot some of the park's most iconic species, including black rhinoceros, hippos, and wildebeest. Your experienced guide will share insights into the ecology of the region, as well as stories and facts about the fascinating behaviors of the park's many species.

The Ngorongoro Crater is a particularly special location for a game drive due to its enclosed nature. Surrounded by towering walls, the crater forms a natural amphitheater that makes it easy to spot a wide range of wildlife. You'll travel through lush forests and open savannahs, taking in breathtaking views of the crater floor and its many inhabitants.

At the end of our day, we'll head back to Marera Valley Lodge.

Lake Manyara National Park

Where the plains of northern Tanzania meet the Rift Valley escarpment, Lake Manyara is a wonderful place to spend a safari day. Your highlights for the day might include getting up-close-and-personal with the elephants that made this park famous, lots of baboons, as well as one of few lion populations in Africa that spend much of their time in the trees. Between the forests at the foot of the escarpment and the lake that gives the park its name, enjoy rich birdlife and the chance of seeing predator ambush their prey.

In the afternoon you guide will drive out of the park and take you back to Arusha or to the airport. It is time to say goodbye to your guide with whom have you spend some wonderful safari days. You came as a guest but you leave as a friend!
