7-Day Northern Tanzania Safari with Materuni Waterfalls and Coffee

You will be picked up from your hotel in Arusha and begin your journey to Materuni Waterfalls for an enriching coffee tour experience. After exploring the waterfalls and learning about traditional coffee-making practices, you will return to Arusha.

You will have breakfast served at the lodge in Arusha, and then you will be picked up by your guide. Afterward, you will depart for Tarangire National Park. The park is named after the Tarangire River, which runs through it. This 'river of warthogs' is the only source of water for wildlife in the region during the dry season.

In places, the vegetation is quite dense, including elephant grass, acacia woodlands, and lush groundwater forest. The park is well known for its elephant families, which can often be seen congregating by the river. You may also see giraffes, bushbucks, and hartebeests. These animals are closely followed by a range of predators, including lions and leopards. There are more breeding species of birds found in Tarangire National Park than anywhere else on the planet.

Serengeti National Park is the largest in Tanzania, with diverse landscapes and habitats such as grassy plains, swamps, lakes, savannahs, and mountains. After an extensive game drive, you will continue to your accommodation, where you will enjoy dinner and an overnight stay.

You'll be up early to proceed to Ngorongoro, the 8th Wonder of the Natural World. The concentration of African wildlife here is the greatest on the continent. The crater is almost 20 km wide, approximately 610 m deep, and is known for its large variety of wildlife.

In addition to the Big Five, the various springs attract animals such as wildebeests, gazelles, reedbuck, and more than 500 bird species. At a picnic site, you will have lunch before enjoying more game viewing in the crater. The crater has a river, several swamps, a soda lake with a great concentration of flamingos, a forest, and open plains.

It is also famous for its elephants, which are the largest in the world and have huge tusks. This is due to the rich mineral content of the volcanic soil and its grasses. Ngorongoro Crater is truly a Wonder of the Natural World. You will reach your lodge in time for a beautiful sunset and time to relax.

You will visit Lake Manyara, an alkaline soda lake that is home to an incredible array of birdlife thriving on its brackish waters. Pink flamingos stoop and graze by the thousands, creating colorful specks against the grey minerals of the lakeshore. Yellow-billed storks swoop and corkscrew on thermals rising from the escarpment, and herons flap their wings against the sun-drenched sky. Even reluctant birdwatchers will find something to watch and marvel at within the national park, including hippos.

You will have a packed lunch served at a picnic site. After lunch, you will start the drive back to Arusha to your lodge for an overnight stay.
