The itinerary

1
Day 01

Arrival at Kilimanjaro Airport

Upon arrival at Arusha/Kilimanjaro Airport, your Wide Range of African Safaris guide will pick you up and transfer you to your hotel in Arusha or Moshi, Tanzania. Settle into your accommodation, relax, and get used to the African atmosphere.

2
Day 02

Arusha to Tarangire National Park Game Drive

Depart early in the morning from Arusha town and drive across the beautiful and scenic Masai Steppe to Makuyuni Junction. From there, turn left along the Arusha to Dodoma Highway towards Tarangire National Park, a journey that will take about two hours at most.

Arrive at the park gate at Tarangire, and after your driver has completed the paperwork, begin your game drive almost straight away from the gate in a bid to see as many animals and birds as possible.

Day 03

Journey to Serengeti National Park

After breakfast, head towards Serengeti National Park via the beautiful high-lying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area.

Leaving the highlands behind, descend into the heart of wild Africa - Serengeti National Park - with its endless plains rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see.

Day 04

Morning Game Drive in Serengeti and Transfer to Ngorongoro

Early in the morning after breakfast, leave the camp for game viewing in the heart of Serengeti National Park while enjoying the beautiful sunrise. Although the morning will be chilly, continue with the game drive until midday, then drive back to camp for a full breakfast and lunch, which means a brunch.

5
Day 05

Ngorongoro Crater Tour and Return to Arusha

Early in the morning, start the game drive before heading to Ngorongoro. The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is a special place because it is a conservation area, not a national park, which means that the whole area is managed for both the animals and the local Masai people.

During the drive to Ngorongoro, you will have the chance to glimpse something of the Masai way of life.

After stopping at the entrance gate, where there is an opportunity to learn more about this fascinating volcanic landscape, drive around the rim of the crater itself. From there, you can look down and see herds of buffalo or wildebeest.

Finally, descend into the crater, the floor of the largest unbroken caldera in the world, also called the Ngorongoro Crater.
