Upon your arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you will be warmly welcomed by our team and transferred to Arusha. You will stay overnight in a comfortable accommodation. In the evening, you will receive a detailed briefing about your upcoming safari from your driver-guide or a representative of our team.
After breakfast, your journey takes you to Tarangire National Park, known for its huge elephant herds and majestic baobab trees. The Tarangire River, the region's only permanent water source, attracts numerous wildlife. Exciting encounters with lions, leopards, cheetahs, and large elephant herds await you here. After an extensive game drive, you will overnight in a charming safari lodge.
Early in the morning, you will set off for the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The crater is known for its unparalleled animal density - over 30,000 animals live here, including lions, elephants, buffaloes, hippos, and the rare black rhinoceros. With some luck, you can witness the "Big Five" in a unique landscape with steep crater walls and endless plains. After an unforgettable day, you will drive to a cozy lodge in Karatu in the evening.
In the morning, your journey continues to Lake Manyara National Park. This small but diverse park impresses with its dense vegetation and biodiversity. In addition to elephants, buffaloes, and antelopes, you can also admire the birdlife, with over 400 species represented here. The varied landscape ranges from groundwater forests to acacia woodlands and the impressive cliffs of the Rift Valley. After a day full of fascinating experiences, you will drive back to Arusha.
After a relaxing breakfast in Arusha, our team will take you to Kilimanjaro International Airport in time for your return flight.
