Arrival
Day 1: Tarangire National Park
This is the moment you’ve been waiting for: your safari is about to start and there’s so much to look forward to. We’ll welcome you, give you a taste of what lies ahead, and then get ready to set out and enjoy so many remarkable safari experiences. Explore one of Tanzania’s most rewarding national parks, a land of big baobab trees, big elephants and big cats. No wonder this ends up being the favorite park in Tanzania for many visitors. Sightings of wildebeest, giraffes, hippos, buffaloes, baboons, vervet monkeys and zebras are also almost guaranteed. Lions are plentiful here – Tarangire is home to one of Tanzania’s healthiest lion populations. While you’ll have to work a little harder to see a cheetah or leopard, it will only enhance your excitement when you do. You can also look forward to classic safari scenery – savannah plains, river woodlands and rocky hills.
Accommodation: Fig Tree Lodge & Camp
In the fascinating town of Mto wa Mbu, Fig Tree Lodge & Camp is well-placed for getting a taste of local life. It’s also an excellent base for visiting Lake Manyara National Park as you’re just five minutes away from the park entrance by road. There’s an onsite bar and restaurant, a swimming pool and wifi.
Day 2 & 3 Serengeti National Park
You’ll never forget the time you spend in the Serengeti. Perhaps it will be the sightings of leopard and cheetah as they show their skills as feared hunters of the plains and valleys. Or that unforgettable moment when an elephant family feeds alongside your vehicle, so close you could almost reach out and touch them. Or the first time you hear a lion roar. Then there are the herds of buffalo, zebra or wildebeest so large that they move as one across your horizon, like a river. All of these experiences are possible in the Serengeti, one of the most beautiful parks in Africa

Day 4: Serengeti National Park
There’s no such thing as too many days in the Serengeti – today you’ll get to enjoy it all over again.
Accommodation: Ngorongoro Simba Campsite
Hang out with other travelers and swap safari stories with them when you stay with us at Ngorongoro Simba Campsite. It’s a camping area high on the crater rim, and the views from here as the morning mist rises from the crater are simply wonderful. The location is also conveniently close to the main descent road down into the crater.
Day 5: Ngorongoro Crater
You’ll learn why magical Ngorongoro is unlike anywhere else in Africa. Cloud forests encircle the crater rim, and the view out across the caldera of this former volcano – quite apart from the altitude – will leave you gasping for air. Your drive down a steep trail carries you onto the crater floor where a unique wildlife offering is added to the sheer beauty of the experience. You’ll share the sunken ecosystem of the crater floor with hyenas, lions, elephants, black rhinos and hippos. An ecosystem that has formed in the crater in the millennia since the volcano wrought its terrible fury upon the land. It could just be one of your best safari days ever. Your Tanzanian safari draws to a close, and we’re sure that you will have enjoyed it as much as we have.
