Day 1

Lake Manyara National Park

Lake Manyara National Park

You'll be picked up from your hotel at 8 am and start a beautiful journey across the Great Rift Valley for a full-day game drive. Although small in dimension (205 sq miles), the park has breathtaking scenery. It is famous for its lush acacia forest, giant figs, mahogany trees, and a growing population of baboons and blue monkeys. Permanent residents of this park include giraffes, elephants, impalas, and many buffaloes. The lake is also home to a large number of hippos. Lake Manyara's landscapes can not be described with words, and the game drives along the lake provide stunning photo opportunities. You have giraffes and buffaloes in the foreground and the lake in the background. Extra tours are possible, including a bike or boat excursion. In the afternoon, return to the camp for dinner.

You have the option to upgrade your accommodation level.

Note: You can replace this park with Tarangire NP, or add an extra day and visit both.

Day 2

Serengeti National Park

Serengeti National Park

After an early breakfast, depart towards the most famous national park in the world, the Serengeti. The driving itself, although long, is spectacular. This will be an unforgettable moment for anyone seeing it for the first time. As you progress well into the Serengeti, you will know why the name means, in the local language, "endless plains." The park has 6,900 sq miles (18,000 sq kilometers); for most of it, the plains will stretch to the horizon, defying your senses and perception of distances. It is the home of the great migration and to 2 million wildebeests, hundreds of thousands of zebras, and all kinds of antelopes. As for big cats and large predators, it's the place to look out for lions, cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas, with many television scenes like the famous river crossings filmed in this park.

You can upgrade your accommodation level if you prefer.

Day 4

Tarangire National Park

Tarangire National Park

Your Extreme Wilderness Adventures safari guide will pick you up from your accommodation after breakfast. You will then drive to Tarangire National Park. This transit drive is approximately 2.5 hours on good tarmac roads. The park is named after the Tarangire River, which runs through it. This "river of warthogs" is the only water source for wildlife in the region during the Dry season.

The park is well known for its elephant families, which can often be seen congregating by the river. You may also see giraffe, bushbuck, and hartebeest. These animals are closely followed by a range of predators, including lions and leopards. More bird species are found in Tarangire than anywhere else on the planet! The huge and ancient baobab trees can be seen here. Some are said to have lived for over a thousand years.

Lunch will be at a picnic site inside the park. After your game drive, you will transit back to Arusha.
