ITINERARY

Day 1: Tarangire National Park

Approx. time in park: 4-5 hours

Driving hours to the park: 4-5 hours

Meals: lunch and dinner included

Leave at hotel in Moshi at 06:00 am and transfer to the Tarangire National Park via Arusha city, the drive cover approximately 210 km and covers around 4-5 hours to the park gate.  You’ll spend a 4-5 hours drive within the park that is famous in having a big number of elephants and huge scattered baobab trees. Other mammals like giraffes, antelopes, lions and cheetahs can be seen here but it’s not a guarantee. At 04:00 pm you’ll leave the park and drive to the Camp for your dinner and overnight.

Day 2: TARANGIRE TO SERENGETI  NATIONAL PARK

Approx. time in park: 6-7 hours

Driving hours to the park: 3-4 hours

Meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner included

After breakfast we head towards the Serengeti National Park, via the beautiful high lying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leaving the highlands behind, we descend into the heart of wild Africa – the Serengeti National Park – with its endless plains, rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see. We head to the central park area, known as the Seronera area, one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park, featuring the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife well representative of most of the Serengeti’s species. We arrive in time for lunch and enjoy an afternoon game drive in the Serengeti national park.

Day 3: SERENGETI  NATIONAL PARK

Approx. time in park: 6-7 hours

Driving hours to the park: 3-4 hours

Meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner included

After breakfast we will start our game viewing. Serengeti is huge (with 1400km² it is nearly the size of Northern Ireland) and we will see only a small part of it during our drive in the central Serengeti since it is known as the heart of Serengeti National Park and having a huge diversity of animals, especially cats (Lions, Leopards, Cheetahs). After the game drive we will enter into Ngorongoro Conservation area for dinner and overnight.  We suggest to have warm clothes and light gloves because it can get quite chilly and windy in the highlands.

Day 4: NGORONGORO CRATER

Approx. time in park: 5 hours

Driving hours to Moshi/airport: 5 hours

Meals: breakfast and lunch included

Our last safari day we will venture into the World Heritage Site of Ngorongoro Crater. We will have 5 hours game drive which is sufficient since the size of the crater floor is 300 km². The crater is also one of the new 7 natural wonders of Africa; hence we expect you will experience large unbroken caldera in the world.  More than 25000 grazers and carnivores will be waiting for you. Afterwards we will ascend the crater floor making our way to Moshi.
