Following breakfast, your driver-guide will pick you up, marking the beginning of your safari adventure. Depart from Arusha, and after approximately 3 hours of driving, you'll arrive at Tarangire National Park.

Renowned for its abundant elephants, majestic baobab trees, and the spectacle of tree-climbing African pythons, the park spans an impressive 2,850 square kilometers.
Engage in a full day of game viewing, punctuated by a picnic lunch overlooking the river, offering a refreshing break from the journey. As daylight wanes, conclude the day's adventures with a drive to the lodge or campsite, where you'll enjoy a well-deserved dinner and an overnight stay.

Today you will wake up very early to do an early morning safari before breakfast, to spot the animals when they are more active, and also to have a fantastic sun rise in front of you. The sunrise in the African savannah is one of the most beautiful experiences one can have. After the game drive, you will return to the camp for brunch. In the afternoon, you'll transfer to Ngorongoro, the 8th Natural Wonder of the World. With walls 2,000ft high and a crater floor that spreads for 102 sq miles, the crater is a virtual Noah’s Ark, inhabited by almost every species of wildlife indigenous to East Africa including the rare black rhinos. In fact, the crater has the greatest concentration of wildlife on the planet. It contains a river, several swamps, a soda lake that, from the top, looks like steam, full of flamingoes, a forest, and open plains. The large bull elephants that reside here have extremely large tusks, due to the rich mineral content of the volcanic soil and its grasses.
