Day 01

Moshi or Arusha to Tarangire National Park

We will leave from Moshi or Arusha in the morning, depending on where you wish to start the safari, and travel to Tarangire National Park for a game drive that will conquer your heart as you see many elephants and other wildlife.

Day 02

Tarangire to Serengeti via Ngorongoro Views

A delicious breakfast showcasing local and organic products will be served at camp, followed by a breathtaking drive to Serengeti National Park. We will take the scenic route to Serengeti, allowing for an amazing bird's-eye view of Ngorongoro Crater. There is a high likelihood of spotting game on the drive. The endless golden savanna, contrasted with the vibrant patterns of zebras, lions, and elephants, makes it easy to understand why the Serengeti is one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa.

We will stop for a picnic lunch on the most famous kopje (a small hill in a generally flat area) in the park, allowing visitors to experience the vastness of Serengeti from atop the hill. We will proceed further into the Serengeti for a leisurely game drive, where you will likely view herds of giraffes, elephants, and zebra. You will spend the night at the Nyani (Baboon) Serengeti Camp, falling asleep to the mighty chorus of zebra, lions, and gazelles.

The day will begin in the center of the majestic Serengeti. After a nourishing breakfast, we will continue our journey into the plains. Since we have a full day of game driving, you will likely view hundreds of the diverse animals that find their home within the Serengeti's endless plains.

This day will likely offer sightings of the African mammals that make the park famous - lions, leopards, elephants, cheetahs, and water buffalo - all within a few feet of the jeep. Depending on the time of year, visitors will also have the chance to view thousands of zebra and wildebeest on their Great Migration. Dinner will be served at our campsite in Seronera, another spot well known for animal sightings.
