Itinerary

In the morning, your safari guide will pick you up at your hotel in Moshi or Arusha. You will be driven to the lovely Lake Manyara National Park .
Most likely, even before reaching the park gates, you will be welcomed by troops of baboons on the side on the side of the road. Once inside the park we will enjoy game viewing. Two-thirds of this park is covered by Lake Manyara. This shallow alkaline lake is highly favoured by flamingoes, hippos, and crocodiles.
Commonly seen animals include elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, wildebeests, warthogs, lionsm leopards, monkeys, hyenas, ostriches, among others. A picnic style lunch will be served inside the park and game viewing will continue until mid- afternoon when we exit the park and go to the overnight campground/lodge/tented camp for dinner and overnight rest.

After an early breakfast, we drive west entering Ngorongoro Conservation Area and to Ngorongoro Crater.
After regestering at the gate we desend 600m (2,000ft) down the wilding road into one of the top safari destinations in the world.
Ngorongoro Crater is known for its high density of large mammals and large variety. The beauty of the steep crater walls are also not to be overlooked and makes for a wonderful photographic background.
This is one of the few places where all of the “Big Five” – elephants, lions, leopards, buffaloes, and rhinoceros might be spotted in one game drive. The only missing African plains safari animals are giraffes and oryx inside of the crater.
A picnic style lunch will be served as a designated area near a small lake frequented by hippos, flamingoes, and cranes. The crater is not large, jsut 20km in diameter, so in half day, all can be seen. At that time, we ascend out of the crater and return to the same accommodation as the previous night for dinner and overnight rest.

After an early breakfast, we drive to Tarangire National Park. This park is most famous for its large number of elephants and giraffes. Most safari animals are present here except for rhinoceros.
The unusual looking giant baobab treees and huge termite mounds dot the landscape. giving this park an unique look. The scenic Tarangire River winds its way through the park and especailly during dry times many animals gather along the river bank.
Game viewing will be paused for a picnic style lunch inside of the park. In the afternoon we will exit the park and you will be driven to either Arusha, Kilimanjaro Airport, or Moshi for the conclusion of the itinerary.
