Day by Day
Upon arrival, you will be met by our professional representative and transferred to your elegant Arusha lodge. If time permits, enjoy a guided stroll through the local Maasai market or the African Art Gallery before your evening briefing.
Journey to Tarangire, a park defined by its iconic Baobab trees and massive elephant populations. Enjoy a riverfront picnic lunch while watching wildlife congregate at the water's edge before an afternoon game drive.
Travel through the Ngorongoro Highlands, stopping for a panoramic view of the crater. Visit a Maasai village for a cultural immersion before reaching the vast Seronera plains for a late afternoon game drive.
Dedicate a full day to the world-renowned Serengeti. Your guide will navigate to the best wildlife hotspots based on current animal movements, searching for the Big Five and the Great Migration herds.
Rise early for a sunrise game drive in the heart of the Serengeti to witness predators at their most active. After a late morning brunch, enjoy a final game drive en route to the crater rim.
Descend 600 metres into the crater floor for a spectacular half-day tour. This UNESCO site is the best place to spot the endangered Black Rhino among a permanent population of lions, hyenas, and hippos.
Conclude your safari at Lake Manyara, famous for its lush groundwater forest and vibrant birdlife. Search for the legendary tree-climbing lions and visit the hippo pool before returning to Arusha.
The dry season from June to October offers the best wildlife viewing as animals congregate near water sources. For the calving season in the Serengeti, consider travelling between January and March.
Questions
It can be surprisingly chilly at dawn, especially in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro. We recommend layering with a warm fleece or light jacket.
