Your journey begins as you arrive at Kilimanjaro International Airport. Our team will be there to welcome you with warm Tanzanian hospitality. After a brief introduction, you’ll be transferred to your comfortable lodge in Arusha for dinner and overnight rest, preparing for the days ahead.
After breakfast, we head to Tarangire, a park known for its vast elephant herds and iconic baobab trees. Game drives here offer the chance to spot lions, giraffes, zebras, and more. Enjoy a picnic lunch inside the park and continue exploring until sunset, when we head to your lodge for a peaceful night under the stars.
Today is all about immersing yourself in local life. We visit Mto wa Mbu, a vibrant town where over 120 tribes live together. Take a guided tour through banana plantations, local markets, and traditional homes. You’ll enjoy a local lunch prepared by a women’s group and get a firsthand look at Tanzanian hospitality and traditions.
Explore Lake Manyara, famous for its tree-climbing lions, pink flamingos, and scenic vistas. The park’s lush groundwater forest and vast soda lake offer a unique contrast to other parks. After a full day of wildlife viewing, we head back to your lodge to relax.
Descend into the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the world’s most remarkable wildlife areas. The crater floor is home to elephants, rhinos, lions, buffaloes, and countless other species. Enjoy a picnic lunch surrounded by nature before returning to your lodge on the crater rim.
Before heading to Serengeti, we make a stop at Olduvai Gorge, one of the most significant paleoanthropological sites in the world. Learn about early human history, then proceed to the legendary Serengeti. Begin your first game drive en route to your lodge, witnessing the park’s vast plains and abundant wildlife.
Spend two full days exploring the Serengeti, home to the Big Five and the Great Wildebeest Migration (seasonal). Game drives at sunrise and sunset give you the best chance to witness predators in action and herds on the move. Return to camp each evening for storytelling by the fire and stargazing in the African night.
