After breakfast, the tour departs. The first stop is Arusha town for any last-minute purchases before we head off on safari. Afterwards, we head towards the Tarangire National Park for a game drive with a picnic lunch at the park. Tarangire is well known for its huge elephant population and baobab trees. It forms the centre of an annual migratory cycle that includes up to 3,000 elephants, 25,000 wildebeest and 30,000 zebras. Dinner and overnight will be at Sangaiwe Tented Lodge.
Lake Manyara National Park offers breathtaking views and a large variety of habitats, acacia woodlands, water forests, baobab-strewn cliffs, algae-streaked hot springs, swamps and the lake itself. Thanks to this, the small park is able to support a large number of animal species and incredible birdlife. Manyara has the largest concentration of baboons anywhere in the world, and the lions here are also renowned for their tree climbing. Dinner and overnight are at Tortilis Camp.
After breakfast, depart for Serengeti National Park via the beautiful high-laying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leaving the highlands behind, we descend into the heart of wild Africa – the Serengeti National Park – with its endless plains. Dinner and overnight are at Serena Safari Lodge.
This day will be spent in Serengeti National Park, with a full-day game drive. In the afternoon, you will have lunch within the Serengeti, then continue with the game drive. In the evening, you will have dinner and stay overnight at the Serena Safari Lodge.
You will go on an early morning game drive and then depart for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. We will stop at Olduvai Gorge, boasting a history dating back to the dawn of time. It was here that the anthropologists, Drs. Lois and Mary Leakey discovered the skulls of "Nutcracker Man" and "Handy Man", both very significant links in the chain of human evolution. Dinner and overnight are at Ngorongoro Serena Lodge.
After an early breakfast, you will descend over 600 meters into the crater to view wildlife. Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephant. Another big drawcard to this picturesque national park is its dense population of predators, which includes lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopard, which sometimes requires a trained eye to spot.
In the evening, you will be transferred to your hotel in Arusha.
