Day 1
Arusha - Tarangire
Arusha - Tarangire
You will be picked up at your hotel/ Arusha airport and together with your guide you drive to Tarangire National Park. In 1970, the national park emerged from a former colonial hunting ground. He has a very diverse animal world, not least because of its size, which corresponds to approximately Luxembourg. The park is home to one of the largest elephant populations in the north of Tanzania, but is also home to many other wild animals. With some luck you can spot lions, cheetahs or leopards. The landscape of the park is very diverse. Especially the huge baobab trees, which are located close together in the north-eastern sector of the park, are particularly impressive. After an extensive game drive drive to the lodge.

Day 2
Ngorongoro Crater
Ngorongoro Crater
After an early breakfast our drive to the Ngorongoro crater starts. We pass the small town of Mto wa Mbu and soon we will see Lake Manyara. Behind the small town Karatu, the drive will take you up the steep slopes of the East African Rift Valley into the highlands of the Ngorongoro Crater. Afterwards it goes on partly adventurous roads about 600 meters downward into the crater. The crater has a diameter of 17-21 kilometers and is the home of a great animal world. Nearly all the biodiversity of the East African savannah has gathered here, only giraffes and a few other animal species for which the rock faces are too steep do not live in the crater. Depending on the season, 15,000 to 25,000 animals are gathering here, thereof more than two thirds buffaloes, gnus, zebras and gazelles. This large number of grazers also explains why in the crater the largest density of predators in Africa can be found.
