This expertly curated two-day safari invites you to witness the dramatic landscapes and abundant wildlife of Northern Tanzania. Beginning in the baobab-studded plains of Tarangire National Park, you will encounter the country's largest herds of elephants alongside a diverse array of predators and plains game. Your journey continues to the world-renowned Ngorongoro Crater, a geological marvel providing an unparalleled theatre for wildlife viewing.
We offer a sociable yet comfortable experience, joining a small group of like-minded travellers in a high-specification 4x4 vehicle. Every guest is guaranteed a window seat and access to the pop-up roof, ensuring unobstructed views and exceptional photography opportunities. While the safari vehicle is shared, your evenings are spent in the privacy of hand-picked mid-range lodges, offering a perfect blend of adventure and relaxation.
The itinerary focuses on the 'Big Five' and the unique ecosystems of the Rift Valley. From the ancient baobabs of Tarangire to the lush floor of the Ngorongoro Crater, home to the rare black rhino, this short but immersive tour delivers the very best of Tanzania's natural heritage in just two days.
Day by Day
After a morning briefing, depart for Tarangire, a park celebrated for its iconic baobab trees and massive elephant populations. Enjoy a full day of tracking predators like lions and leopards before retreating to a comfortable lodge in the vibrant Mto wa Mbu area.
Descend into the world's largest intact volcanic caldera for a morning of spectacular wildlife viewing, including a chance to spot the elusive black rhino. After a scenic lunch on the crater floor, ascend and begin your return journey to Arusha.
The dry season from June to October offers the most concentrated wildlife viewing around water sources. However, the lush green season from November to May is spectacular for birdwatching and newborn calves.
Questions
The tour starts with a morning pickup from your hotel in Arusha and returns you to the city centre or your hotel late on the second afternoon.
