Day 01

Arusha to Tarangire National Park Safari

You will be picked up from your hotel in Arusha and driven to Tarangire National Park to begin your game-viewing experience in this magnificent park. The park is famous for its large collection of baobab trees, spectacular large mammal population, and variety of bird species, not to mention one of the largest concentrations of elephants in the country. After your tour around the park, you will be transferred to the camp, where you will spend the night.

Day 02

Ngorongoro Crater Game Drive and Return to Arusha

You will depart the camp at around 6:00 am and head to the Ngorongoro Crater for your final game drive. The crater is not only the largest unbroken caldera in the world, but also one of the New 7 Natural Wonders of Africa. The Ngorongoro Conservation Area supports a vast variety of animals, including herds of wildebeests, zebras, buffalos, elands, warthogs, hippos, and giant African elephants.

Another big drawcard of this picturesque national park is its dense population of predators, including lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopards, which sometimes require a trained eye to spot. A large number of flamingos, hippos, and other water birds can usually be seen here.

After your morning game drive, you will take a break to enjoy your packed lunch at the Hippo Pool picnic site. After lunch, you will be transferred back to Arusha to your hotel or dropped off at the airport.
