Nestled at the base of the Great Rift Valley escarpment, Lake Manyara is known for its diverse birdlife, including thousands of flamingos, and the rare tree-climbing lions.
Upon arrival, we check into our lodge/camp and enjoy a sumptuous lunch. In the afternoon, we embark on a game drive through the park's varied habitats, which include dense forests, open grasslands, and the alkaline lake itself. Look out for elephants, hippos, and a variety of bird species. As the sun sets, we return to our lodge/camp for dinner and overnight stay.
Day 2: Lake Manyara to Tarangire National Park
After an early breakfast, we depart for Tarangire National Park, known for its massive elephant herds and towering baobab trees. The journey offers scenic views of the Tanzanian countryside, with opportunities to spot local wildlife along the way.
Upon arrival in Tarangire, we check into our lodge/camp and enjoy a picnic lunch. In the afternoon, we explore the park on a game drive, witnessing the diverse wildlife that inhabits this area, including lions, leopards, and a variety of antelope species. The park's swamps and rivers are teeming with life, providing fantastic game viewing opportunities. As evening approaches, we head back to our accommodation for dinner and a relaxing night.

Upon arrival in the Serengeti, we enjoy a picnic lunch before embarking on an afternoon game drive. The Serengeti is famed for its vast savannahs, abundant wildlife, and the Great Migration, where millions of wildebeest and zebras traverse the plains in search of fresh grazing grounds. In the evening, we retreat to our lodge/camp for dinner and an overnight stay, surrounded by the sounds of the African wilderness.

Between game drives, we return to our lodge/camp for a relaxing lunch and some leisure time. The Serengeti's golden plains, dotted with acacia trees and dramatic rock formations, provide a stunning backdrop for your safari experience. As the sun sets, painting the sky with vibrant hues, we capture the beauty of the moment and return to our accommodation for dinner and a restful night.
Day 5: Serengeti to Ndutu Area (Serengeti)
After breakfast, we head towards the Ndutu Area, located in the southern part of the Serengeti ecosystem. The Ndutu Area is particularly famous during the calving season of the Great Migration, where thousands of wildebeest give birth, attracting predators and providing spectacular wildlife viewing opportunities.
We enjoy a picnic lunch upon arrival and spend the afternoon exploring this rich wildlife area. The vast grasslands and seasonal lakes attract a plethora of animals, making it a photographer's paradise. As the day ends, we return to our lodge/camp for dinner and an overnight stay, with the sounds of the bush lulling us to sleep.
Day 6: Ndutu to Ngorongoro Crater and Departure
On the final day of our safari, we rise early and depart for the Ngorongoro Crater. After breakfast, we descend into the world’s largest unbroken caldera, a geological marvel and home to an incredible concentration of wildlife. The Ngorongoro Crater is renowned for its diverse habitats, which support a wide variety of animals, including the Big Five – lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant, and buffalo.
We spend the morning on a thrilling game drive, exploring the crater floor and spotting numerous animals in their natural habitats. A picnic lunch by a scenic spot allows us to take in the stunning surroundings while enjoying a meal. In the afternoon, we ascend the crater and begin our journey back to Arusha.
