After breakfast at your hotel in Arusha/ pick up from airport you will head off in the direction of Tarangire National Park. The park, with its savannah, baobab trees, and seasonal swamps, is home to huge elephant herds. Animals gather at the life-giving Tarangire River and you should see a selection of mammals ranging from giraffe and bushbuck to hartebeest and warthog. The park is also home to buffalo, zebra and wildebeest, which are always closely followed by a range of predators such as lions. Leopards are seen now and then, but cheetahs are rarely spotted. From the open roof of the safari vehicle, you will be able to absorb the landscape and watch the animals.

Day 4

Serengeti national park

Serengeti national park

The day will begin with a game viewing chance in the center of Serengeti. Before heading to the Ngorongoro crater safari, we will stop for lunch in the park. Elephants, Lions, leopards, crocodiles, cheetahs, buffaloes, zebras, wildebeest, elands, wild dogs, gazelles, antelopes, giraffes, zebras, monkeys, baboons, hippos, rhinos, live in the Ngorongoro Crater. Vultures, storks, and flamingos are migrating birds from Eurasia and Africa. Most of the plantation is lush and green; however, there are desert plant types. The likelihood of seeing which species is determined by the time of year and the migration of the herds. We'll travel to the crater rim in the afternoon and spend the night at Ngorongoro wild camp.

Day 5

Ngorongoro crater

Ngorongoro crater

During the drive in Ngorongoro, we have a chance to glimpse into the Maasai way of life. After stopping at the entrance gate, there is a chance to learn more about this fascinating volcanic landscape. We will drive around the rim of the crater, and from here, we can look down and see the herds of wildebeest or buffalos. Finally, we descend into the crater. The crater walls provide a natural sanctuary for the animals which means there is plenty to see such as lions, elephants, buffalos, rhinos and leopards (if you are lucky). Later, we will leave the crater and drive back to Arusha and drop off at your hotel/ airport.
