Day 1
Game Drive in Tarangire National Park
Game Drive in Tarangire National Park
We'll pick you up from the hotel and drive you to Tarangire National Park for excellent game viewing.
Tarangire is a small park that offers some excellent sights. Generally, in the dry seasons, Tarangire comes alive as wildlife and birdlife congregate at the Tarangire River, which is a permanent source of water.
We spend the night in our lodge, beautifully set outside the park with stunning views and a unique atmosphere. In the late afternoon, we make a short journey from the park to our special tented camp for dinner and overnight.

Day 3
Lake Natron Expedition
Lake Natron Expedition
Activities in the Lake Natron area focus mainly on hikes and enjoying the fascinating scenery. We recommend walking across the baked mud to the shores of the great soda lake - in which algae and zooplankton thrive – to watch the flamingos line up on the shore.
Another great walk is the one leading up to the Engero Sero Waterfalls. It will guide you through a shady gorge (very welcome in the heat) and between various cliffs. After a few hours, you’ll reach a beautiful natural swimming pool surrounded by steep rock walls, showered by cascades of spring water and overlooked by palm trees.
The fit and brave might like to climb Oldoinyo Lengai, an active volcano. To avoid the heat, this climb usually starts at midnight and guides you to spectacular views and a stunning sunrise in approximately six hours. Oldoinyo Lengai is a very tough climb and not one to take lightly.

Unforgettable Ngorongoro Crater
Unforgettable Ngorongoro Crater
You will have an early start in the Serengeti to try and find cats before they retreat from the blazing sun during the day. After a few hours of the game drive, travel to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, where you will enter the crater.
The Ngorongoro Crater is the largest unflooded and unbroken caldera in the world. At approximately 20 kilometers across and 600 meters deep, it is a breathtaking natural wonder and a wonderful haven for wildlife.
Ngorongoro is unique because almost all the wildlife lives within the crater walls, so you can easily find the game. Rhinos, in particular, can be seen regularly, as well as prides of lions and other predators like cheetahs. Enjoy lunch by the hippo pond. After lunch, you will drive back to Karatu for dinner and an overnight stay.
