Itinerary idea in detail
We will pick you up from your hotel at 8 am and take you to a very special national park. Tarangire is famous for its diverse landscape with nine different vegetation zone. The park is particularly known for the abundance of ancient baobab trees (the largest trees on the continent) which fill the landscape and dwarf the animals next to them. The river of the park is full of wildlife ranging from a large variety of birds to lions, leopards, zebras, giraffes, buffaloes, antelopes and, of course, elephants. In fact, the park has the largest concentration of elephants in the whole country and provides unique chances to observe the interaction between elephant families. The lunch area is fascinating, boasting an observatory with amazing views of the river and wildlife (with good chances of seeing a hunt while having your picnic). In the afternoon, we will do a game drive before continuing to your accommodation.
- Main Destination: Tarangire National Park
- Accommodation: Acacia Tarangire Luxury Camp
You'll be picked up from your accommodation early in the morning for a full day game drive in Lake Manyara. Although small in dimension (205sq miles), the park has breathtaking scenery. It is well famous for its lush acacia forest, giant figs, and mahogany trees, as well as a growing population of baboons and blue monkeys. Permanent residents of this park include giraffes, elephants, impalas, and a huge number of buffaloes. The lake is also home to many hippos. Some unique facts about this park include the tree-climbing lions and the flamingos in the lakeshore. The landscapes of Lake Manyara are something that cannot be described in words, and the game drives along the lake provide stunning photo opportunities of giraffes and buffaloes in the foreground and the lake in the background. Some extra tours are possible, including a bike tour or a boat excursion. In the afternoon, transfer to Ngorongoro for the night.
- Main destination: Ngorongoro crater
- Accommodation: Lions Paw
Ngorongoro Crater is considered one of the Wonders of the Natural World. The crater spreads for 102sq miles and has 2,000ft high walls, making it virtually Noah's ark. It inhabits almost every species of wildlife that is indigenous to East Africa. It's one of the very rare locations in the whole continent where you can witness the black rhino. The concentration of African wildlife is the greatest on the continent. The crater has a river, several swamps, a soda lake with a great concentration of flamingoes, a forest, and open plains. It's also famous for its elephants which are the largest in the world and have huge tusks.
We'll start the day very early and descend into the crater floor for an incredible morning of wildlife in one of the most stunning places on Earth. After a fantastic afternoon game drive, ascend the crater and exit the Ngorongoro Conservation Area towards Arusha. We expect to be back in Arusha at around 5 pm but we can be flexible if needed (i.e. flight to catch).
