Drive through the "land of giants", Tarangire National Park. Drive across the endless golden savannah that grazes along the Tarangire River. This national park is known for its elephants and sprawling baobab trees. Enjoy a picnic lunch at the picnic site and take in the remarkable view of the Tarangire River. Keep a close eye on your lunch, as the monkeys won’t hesitate to get away with a tasteful treat if given the chance.

We depart early after breakfast, head across the Great Rift Valley floor, up the escarpment, and traverse the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Enjoy the pleasant and scenic drive as you experience the beautiful scenery and breathtaking vistas on your way to the Serengeti.
Arrive in the Serengeti for an afternoon game drive until late. Lunch is taken at one of the picnic sites, most likely at the Naabi Hill Gate, where you can stretch your legs.
Visit the famous Maasai bomas to get close to the Maasai community. Participate in traditional Maasai dance and walk in the Maasai village. Their culture is well known for hunting lions, and to be considered a warrior, they drink raw cow blood (though these traditions are things of the past, except for drinking blood). You can also do some souvenir shopping at the local Maasai market.

Experience a one-of-a-kind drive inside an ancient volcano packed with incredible wildlife and right in the heart of the action. After an early breakfast, we will start our much-anticipated trip to Ngorongoro Crater.
The earlier you descend to the crater floor, the higher your chances of spotting rare species like black rhinos. Spend the majority of the morning visiting the Ngorongoro Crater. With its 600-to 650-meter-high walls, it resembles a natural zoo and has the highest concentration of wild animals.
Following your picnic lunch, most likely at the designated picnic place beside the hippo pool, you will drive up the crater rim and out of the conservation area.
