The itinerary

Day 01

Tarangire National Park Safari

  • Pick up from the hotel early in the morning, around 8:30 am, and transfer to Tarangire National Park. This is one of the best-kept secrets of the northern circuit. The park covers an area of 2,850 sq km and offers unique and diverse landscapes. The permanent presence of water in the area makes it a good choice, especially during the dry season (June - Oct, Dec - Feb), as plenty of wild animals migrate here. The park is home to big baobab trees, big mammals, especially elephants, as well as other carnivores.
  • Have lunch inside the park and enjoy an afternoon game drive.
  • In the evening, transfer to Haven Nature Camp.

Day 02

Full-Day Game Drive in Lake Manyara National Park

  • After breakfast, transfer to Lake Manyara National Park for a full-day game drive. Lake Manyara National Park offers some breathtaking scenery. It is famous for its lush acacia forest, giant figs and mahogany trees, and a growing population of baboons and blue monkeys. You will be able to spot giraffes, elephants, impalas, buffaloes, and a large number of hippos. Some unique facts about this park include the tree-climbing lions, flamingos along the lakeshore, and the Ground Hornbill and the Crested Eagle.
  • Enjoy lunch inside the park.
  • In the evening, return to Haven Nature Camp.

Day 03

Journey to Serengeti National Park
