Day 1

Arusha to Serengeti

Arusha to Serengeti

Your safari will start with a pickup from your hotel in Arusha. Once everyone is aboard, you'll journey to Serengeti National Park. Known for its endless plains, where the grassland stretches as far as the eye can see and merges with the sky on the horizon, the Serengeti offers an absolutely breathtaking view. It is also home to the illustrious “Big 5” and supports the highest concentration of plains game in Africa. The Seronera area, renowned for its rich wildlife habitats, benefits from the Seronera River, which attracts a variety of animals, including numerous lion prides. Be sure to look out for the “Kopjes,” massive granite boulders that rise from the sea of grass and provide shelter to diverse flora and fauna. During the day-long game drive, you'll enjoy a picnic lunch. The day concludes with a hearty dinner and a restful night at your accommodation.

Main Destination:
Serengeti National Park
Best Time To Visit January to February and June to October (Different areas are best at different times)

The Ngorongoro Crater, the world's largest collapsed volcanic caldera, spans fourteen kilometers of pristine natural beauty. Surrounded by a ring of extinct volcanoes, the crater floor is dotted with watering holes and is home to around 30,000 animals. The day concludes with a hearty dinner and a restful night at your accommodation.

Ngorongoro Crater

Ngorongoro Crater

On the final day of your safari, you'll start early. After a quick breakfast, you'll descend into the Ngorongoro Crater floor around 6:30 AM. The Ngorongoro Crater, the world's largest inactive, intact, and unfilled volcanic caldera, covers about 260 square kilometers and has a depth of over 2,000 feet. The game drive on the crater floor promises plenty of wildlife action, so having your camera ready is highly recommended. You'll have the chance to see abundant African elephants, buffalo, black rhinos, hippos, hyenas, cheetahs, and lions. Following a picnic lunch at the scenic Hippo Pool, you'll begin the steep ascent out of the crater and head back to Arusha. In the evening, you'll be dropped off at your preferred location in Arusha. With unforgettable experiences and cherished memories, it’s time to say goodbye to your team.
