Day 01

Into Serengeti via Karatu and Ngorongoro

  • After breakfast, we head towards Serengeti National Park via the beautiful high-lying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leaving the highlands behind, we 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. We continue to the central park area, known as the Seronera area, one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park. It features the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife representative of most of the Serengeti's species. We arrive in time for lunch and enjoy an afternoon game drive in Serengeti National Park.

Dinner and overnight at a camp.

After lunch, you will continue with a game drive in Serengeti, heading to the gate to check out of Serengeti National Park. Afterwards, you will proceed with game viewing en route to Ngorongoro Crater.

Day 03

Ngorongoro Crater Wildlife Safari

  • After breakfast, descend into the crater with your lunch box and enjoy a game drive for over six hours. The Ngorongoro Crater is one of the most densely crowded African wildlife areas in the world and is home to an estimated 30,000 animals, including some of Tanzania's last remaining black rhinos.
  • Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the crater sustains a wide variety of animals, including herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big drawcard of this picturesque national park is its huge population of predators, including lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopard on the crater floor. After a picnic lunch, you will continue your game drive until late afternoon before driving back to Arusha Town.
