Arusha to Tarangire National Park
Arusha to Tarangire National Park
We will pick you up from your hotel and after meeting the guide, chef, and the other clients. You will drive to Tarangire National Park (2-hr drive), which is famous for its diverse landscape. The park is particularly known for its abundance of ancient baobab trees and having the largest concentration of elephants in the whole country. It provides unique chances to observe the interaction between elephant families. You will do a game drive through the park depending on where they have reported sightings of animals (mostly predators, lions, cheetahs, and leopards — as they are harder to spot). The herbivores like giraffes, wildebeests, zebras, etc. are plenty to see throughout the park.
After lunch, you will proceed with the game drive and exit the park at around 4:30 pm when you will head to your campsite accommodation for dinner and sleep.

Non–game viewing time : 3 to 4 hours.
After breakfast, you'll depart for Serengeti National Park via the beautiful high-lying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leaving the highlands behind, you'll descend into the heart of wild Africa—the Serengeti National Park—with its endless plains, rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see. Then, you'll head to the central park area, known as the Seronera area, one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park, featuring the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife well representative of most of the Serengeti’s species. You'll arrive in time for lunch and enjoy an afternoon game drive in the Serengeti National Park.

Mount Kilimanjaro
Mount Kilimanjaro
It’s impossible to climb this famous highest Mount Kilimanjaro in a day, but your day trip to this majestic iconic snow-capped mountain will give you a shot to scramble up the first leg of the well-known Marangu route. On your way through the thick rainforest, you will come across twittering and chattering bird life Colobus.
Note: Kilimanjaro day hike starts at 6:30 am – 7:00 pm.
Your day trip begins with a hotel pick at Arusha then jump in for a relaxing drive to Marangu gate for registration with the authorities before you begin your long-awaited hike. This route approaches the mountain from the southern-east part.
You will only trek through the lower altitude, taking your picnic lunch en route to Mandara Hut. Once you are at Mandara Hut, you will rest for approximately 30 to 45 minutes before you begin your slow descent back to the Main Gate.
Your driver will be waiting for you to drive you back to the airport with relaxing music to take away the fatigue.
