Day 4: Serengeti National Park expand_more
- After a nourishing breakfast, continue into the vast plains of the magnificent Serengeti, which is home to a diverse array of hundreds of species of animal and bird. Each moment of today’s adventure will stimulate your senses; your eyes alert for each new siting, your ears feasting on the calls, screeches, and buzz of life – or the still, dead silence of the hot noonday.
- Spot some of the park’s lesser-known, but equally beautiful creatures including eland, hyenas, gazelle, crocodile, giraffe, zebra, monkeys, baboons, hippo and rhino. The hundreds of bird species, both endemic and migrating from Eurasia, are a special bonus for bird-watchers.

-
Day 5: Serengeti National Park to Ngorongoro Crater expand_more
- After breakfast, go for another drive through the sights and sounds of the Serengeti: the golden grasslands dotted with acacia, the endless blue of the skies, and the ever-changing sites: over here you might see a rare tree-climbing lion – not as graceful as the leopard who is a lithe, natural climber – and towards the horizon a mixed herd of zebra and wildebeest grazing gently.
- After lunch, set off for the next adventure, which is an exploration of the unique Ngorongoro Crater.
- Spend overnight at Simba Camp, which is on the very rim of the Crater itself. This is an ideal place to rest and relax.

- Spot the Big Five – lion, elephant, leopard, rhino and water buffalo – in a landscape lush with greens, olives, and gold topped with the intense blue of the Tanzanian sky.

- Begin the drive to the tranquility of Fanaka Camp.
- Enjoy a hot, fresh, and tasty dinner under a sky packed full of stars.
-
Day 7: Lake Manyara National Park to Arusha expand_more

- Enjoy a picnic lunch at the heart of the park, to the calls of the birds and the buzzing of insects.
- Head for more wildlife spotting, and then say goodbye to the Lake and drive through Maasai bomas, baobab forest, and rolling savannah plains en route to Arusha.
