4-Day Tanzania Wildlife Safari with Serengeti and Ngorongoro

• It is your first day of the tour, and the day you get to visit Tarangire National Park. The park may be small, but it is fiercely proud and boasts stunning scenery with an incredible animal presence, all of which will have you coming back for more. The drive to this fabulous park will take about 4 hours, and after arrival, all the formalities will be handled at the gate before you proceed with game driving in the park.
• You will start spotting the ancient baobab trees all around, with large herds of elephants making their way through the park. As you keep exploring, there is also a chance that you might spot leopards, lions, giraffes, wildebeest, hyenas, and many other wild animals.
• On top of that, you will enjoy the magnificent scenery of the park, decorated with colourful birds. There is a record of at least 400 resident bird species, so be ready to spot many of them while here.
• After a long day full of magical moments, head to Manyara/Karatu for a night's rest.

• Leave Manyara behind and drive for at least 4 hours to Serengeti National Park. As you join the Ngorongoro Conservation Area route, the road runs along the highlands, offering beautiful views over the land. As you leave the scenic highlands behind, you will arrive at the vast plains of Serengeti.
• You will have lunch at Naabi Gate and thereafter proceed with an afternoon game drive as you head to the central part of the park, where you will spend the night. In Serengeti, keep your eyes open to spot all the classic African animals, from the big cats to elephants, hippos, giraffes, impalas, gazelles, buffalo, and many others.

Optional tour activities before reaching Serengeti:

Olduvai Gorge Museum is one of the most important archaeological sites in the world. The exhibits here are centred on the paleoanthropological research and artefacts found in the surrounding area. Founded by Mary Leakey, the museum also has several charts and photographs describing and illustrating the process of the Laetoli footprints.

Maasai boma visit - visit the popular Maasai people and learn about their traditional Maasai dance, their daily way of life, and even purchase some of their traditional items in the local market.

Note: additional charges will be incurred if you opt to engage in any of the optional tour activities.

Lunch will be offered at one of the picnic sites in Serengeti, most likely Naabi Hill Gate, and after that, you will have a late game drive before retiring to your camp/lodge, where you will have dinner and spend the night.

• This will be your last day in Serengeti National Park, so you will want to take in its full beauty and enjoy the incredible animal sightings on your morning game drive after breakfast at the lodge/camp.
• Get a glimpse of all your Serengeti animals before heading out of the park after lunch.
• After leaving the park, you will head to the Ngorongoro Crater rim, where you will spend the night and enjoy the incredible crater view if the weather allows.

• When it comes to game viewing, Ngorongoro Crater does not disappoint. It is home to more than 25,000 wild animals residing in what may be considered nature's garden. Within the crater, you might also get lucky and spot the black rhino during your game drive.
• Look out for lions, leopards, hyenas, buffalo, and many others. Also keep your eyes open for the flamingos and other birds that reside in the crater.
• After spending the whole day here, you will ascend the crater in the late afternoon and head to Arusha/Moshi.
