The Complete Itinerary

Every day of your custom route is mapped below. Timing and premium property choices can be completely adjusted by our destination architects.

Day 1

Tarangire National Park

Our guide will pick you up from the airport/Arusha and drive you to Tarangire for a full day game drive. You will have dinner and spend an overnight at your lodge/camp. The destination is slightly off the main safari route; Tarangire National Park is a lovely quiet park in Northern Tanzania that is most famous for its elephant migration, birding, and quiet authentic safari atmosphere. The majority of travelers to the region either miss out Tarangire altogether or venture into the park for a matter of hours leaving parts of Tarangire virtually untouched.

Day 2

Drive to Serengeti National Park

You will have breakfast at the camp and then depart for Serengeti National Park via Ndutu area, where you will see the great migration. Serengeti national park is the oldest and most popular national park, also a world heritage site and recently proclaimed a 7th worldwide wonder, the Serengeti is famed for its annual migration, when some six million hooves pound the open plains, as more than 200,000 zebra and gazelles join the wildebeest’s trek for fresh grazing. Yet even when the migration is quiet, the Serengeti offers arguably the most scintillating game-viewing in Africa: great herds of buffalo, smaller groups of elephant and giraffe, and thousands upon thousands of eland, Topi, kongoni, impala and Grant’s gazelle. Upon arrival, you will retire to your camp for dinner and rest.

Day 3

Serengeti National Park

After breakfast, you will proceed to a full day game drive in Central Serengeti, home of big cats, lions, leopard, and cheetahs. You will have a picnic lunch and in the evening, we go back to the camp for an evening campfire, shower, and overnight stay at your lodge.

Day 4

Ngorongoro crater Experience

After breakfast, you will embark on a journey to the Ngorongoro craters where you will have captivating scenery of the magnificent craters. Sure to carry your camera for these eye-catching scenes which may require photography so that you keep the unforgettable memories. After this full day experience, you will head back to your lodge for dinner and overnight.

Day 5

Manyara National Park – Arusha

We depart for a morning game drive at Lake Manyara National Park with picnic lunch. In the evening, we drive to Arusha to drop you off your hotel in Arusha booked by your own arrangements. Manyara provides the perfect introduction to Tanzania’s birdlife. More than 400 species have been recorded, and even a first-time visitor to Africa might reasonably expect to observe 100 of these in one day. Inland of the floodplain, a narrow belt of acacia woodland is the favoured haunt of Manyara’s legendary tree-climbing lions and impressively tusked elephants.
