Tarangire National Park

The park's nine vegetation zones are home to iconic ancient baobab trees, which tower over the animals grazing below. As you journey through the park, the Tarangire River, a vital lifeline, draws a vast array of wildlife, including elephants, lions, leopards, buffalos, zebras, giraffes, antelopes, and vibrant bird species. Known for having the largest elephant population in Tanzania, Tarangire offers incredible opportunities to observe elephant families up close as they socialize and roam. You'll pause for a picnic lunch at a scenic viewpoint, where you can watch animals gather at the river's edge, and if lucky, witness the raw drama of predators hunting.

Serengeti National Park

After an early breakfast, embark on a scenic drive to the world-renowned Serengeti National Park. The journey itself is a visual feast, beginning with vast stretches of Maasai land, where you may spot Maasai boys herding cattle, a vital part of their culture and livelihood. As you continue, you'll ascend into the dramatic crater highlands, pausing at the Ngorongoro Crater rim for a breathtaking panoramic view. By afternoon, you’ll enter the Serengeti, where the vast, seemingly endless plains unfold before you. The Serengeti teems with over two million wildebeests, hundreds of thousands of zebras, and a variety of antelopes like impalas and Thomson’s gazelles. It is also a prime location for spotting the Big Cats—lions, cheetahs, leopards—as well as hyenas, roaming the grasslands in search of prey. As the sun sets over the plains, you’ll head to your campsite for a hearty dinner and a night surrounded by the sounds of the wild.

Today, you'll wake up early to witness the stunning Serengeti sunrise and catch the wildlife at its most active. After an exhilarating morning game drive, you'll return to camp for lunch before starting your journey toward the Ngorongoro Highlands. Ngorongoro Crater, often called the 8th Natural Wonder of the World, boasts towering walls over 600m (2,000 ft) high and covers 265 sq. km (102 sq. mi) of diverse ecosystems, including rivers, swamps, a flamingo-filled soda lake, forests, and open plains. It's home to almost every East African wildlife species, including the rare black rhino and large bull elephants with impressively long tusks, thanks to the mineral-rich volcanic soil. You’ll arrive at your campsite in the highlands by late afternoon, where you'll enjoy dinner and an overnight stay, surrounded by the beauty of this unique landscape.

Ngorongoro Crater

After breakfast, you’ll leave your campsite and head to the Ngorongoro Crater entrance. From there, you'll descend 600m (2,000 ft) to the crater floor for a memorable morning game drive. The Ngorongoro Crater, one of the most densely populated wildlife areas on Earth, is home to approximately 30,000 animals, including some of Tanzania’s last remaining black rhinos. With its year-round water sources and lush vegetation, the crater supports a variety of wildlife, including herds of wildebeest, zebras, buffalos, elands, warthogs, hippos, and majestic African elephants. The crater is also famous for its high density of predators, such as lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the elusive leopard. You'll enjoy a picnic lunch surrounded by this remarkable landscape before an afternoon game drive. Later, you’ll begin your journey back to Arusha, reflecting on your incredible wildlife adventure.
