Itinerary

Day 1: Arusha to Tarangire National Park
- After breakfast, your safari guide will pick you up from your hotel in Arusha and drive you to Tarangire National Park for a game drive and picnic lunch. The park is named for the Tarangire River that crosses through it. It is well known for its big herds of elephants, huge baobab trees, and high numbers of predators. There is a plethora to see and explore here.
Day 2: Mto wa Mbu to Serengeti National Park
- After an early morning breakfast, you will stop at the Ngorongoro Crater viewpoint (before the main gate) to marvel at the crater's beauty on your way to Serengeti National Park.
- Arrive at Serengeti in the afternoon, the perfect time for the guided game drive. Our guide will lead you to have your lunch in the park.
- During the afternoon game drive in Seronera or the central part of Serengeti, you can view wild animals close up until the sun sets, when you head to the Seronera campsite for dinner and an overnight stay.
Day 3: Serengeti National Park
- After an early breakfast, you will depart for the most famous national park in the world, the Serengeti. Although the drive itself is long, it is spectacular. Anyone seeing it for the first time will have an unforgettable moment.
- As you progress well into the Serengeti, you will see why the name means, in local language, "endless plains". The park has 6,900 sq miles (18,000 sq km); for most of it, the plains will stretch to the horizon, defying your senses and perception of distances. It is the home of the Great Migration and to 2 million wildebeests, hundreds of thousands of zebras and all kinds of antelopes.
- As for big cats and large predators, it's the place to look out for lions, cheetahs, leopards, and hyenas. Many television scenes, like the famous river crossings, have been filmed in this park.
Day 4: Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha
- After breakfast, you will drive to Ngorongoro Crater for a game drive and a picnic lunch.
- In the afternoon, we will drive back to Arusha, where the safari ends. The Ngorongoro Crater is a must-see while on safari in Tanzania for its high density of wild animals. The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is a project where the Maasai and their livestock live with wild animals.

Know Before You Go

Our representative will collect you from the airport and take you to your accommodation in Arusha for the night.

We are happy to book accommodation before and after your safari if needed.

Flying into Arusha / Kilimanjaro Airports is quite straightforward. English is widely spoken and used for signs and directions.

Arusha airport is a 30-minute drive from Arusha.

Kilimanjaro Airport is roughly a one-hour drive from Arusha. If you arrive on an international flight, clearing immigration can be a lengthy process.

The local currency is the Tanzanian Shillings. US Dollars and Euros are widely accepted. Most places will not accept older US dollar bills (printed before 2006).

If you intend to use your credit or debit card to withdraw funds, we suggest taking more than one card with you as you may find that your card is not accepted at the first ATM. You may try Visa and Maestro cards are best.

We recommend informing your bank that you will be using your card abroad to avoid being blocked. These are available in Arusha and allow you to withdraw local currency.

We advise you to arrive in Arusha at least one day before your trip begins. Return flights can be booked for the late afternoon/evening of the final day of your Safari, but please ensure your guide is aware of this so that you can arrive at the airport in plenty of time for your flight.

Please check with the relevant Embassy in your country for up-to-date visa and passport information. Ensure your passport will not expire within six months of your trip (i.e., if your trip is in September, make sure it is valid until at least March of the following year) and that it has at least three clear pages.

You will probably need a visa to enter Tanzania. Check with your country’s government travel website to find out how to get your visa. Most visas can be bought on arrival into the country.

You will require vaccinations for your trip. As we are not medically trained, we cannot give detailed advice on vaccination requirements. However, the following vaccinations are generally recommended for Tanzania: Tetanus, Polio, Hepatitis A, Typhoid, Rabies, Yellow Fever, and Malaria. (Yellow fever vaccination is compulsory when you enter Tanzania from a country with yellow fever).

Vaccination certificates are often checked at immigration. If you are entering Tanzania from a country that does not have Yellow Fever, vaccination is not needed. Please visit the World Health Organization website for an up-to-date list. http://www.who.int/ith/ITH_Annex_I.pdf

In some areas we visit, there is a risk of contracting Malaria. You must know that whatever malaria tablets you take only offer partial protection. They must be coupled with your physical efforts against being bitten - the best prevention. Malaria-carrying mosquitoes come out at sunset, so you should wear long sleeves and trousers from this time. Exposed skin, especially ankles, should have insect repellent containing 'Deet' applied to them.

We strongly recommend that you have extensive travel insurance to cover you for your trip. It is also wise to leave a copy of your insurance policy with a friend or relative for safekeeping. Your policy should include adequate Medical Emergency and Repatriation coverage.

Tanzania has a well-established tipping culture.

Guides: If you feel you have received good service, a typical tip is U$D 10-15 per person daily.

In Tanzania, the year is loosely divided into the 'short' rains (November) and the 'long' rains (March to May). The 'rains' usually last one or two hours daily, followed by hot sunny weather. Nights can be surprisingly cold at higher altitudes, e.g., Ngorongoro Crater.
