What you can expect

Your adventure begins with an early morning pickup from your hotel in Arusha.

Pickup Information:

For the group-joining option, pickup normally starts from 07:00 am to 8:00 am.

For the private option, pickup normally starts around 7:00 am. However, the private option is flexible and can be customised according to your preferred time and arrangements.

You will meet your professional safari guide and set off in a comfortable 4x4 safari vehicle with a roof pop-up. As you drive towards Tarangire National Park, the scenery gradually changes from town life to wide open plains dotted with traditional Maasai villages.

Upon entering Tarangire, you will immediately notice the park’s iconic ancient baobab trees and the life-giving Tarangire River, which attracts large numbers of wildlife. During your game drive, you will encounter vast herds of elephants, often seen roaming in family groups, as well as giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, buffaloes, antelopes, and predators such as lions and leopards resting in the shade or stalking prey. Your guide will share fascinating insights about animal behaviour and the ecosystem as you explore the park.

Midday, you will stop at a scenic picnic site to enjoy lunch surrounded by nature. In the late afternoon, you will exit the park and drive to your accommodation for dinner, relaxation, and an overnight stay under the African sky.

On Day Two, after an early breakfast, you will travel towards the world-famous Ngorongoro Conservation Area. As you ascend the crater rim, you will enjoy breathtaking panoramic views before descending into the Ngorongoro Crater, a natural wonder and one of Africa’s best wildlife viewing areas.

Inside the crater, you will experience an incredible concentration of animals in a relatively small area. Expect to see lions, hyenas, elephants, buffaloes, zebras, and wildebeest, as well as the rare black rhinoceros. Birdlife is abundant, including flamingos around the soft drink lake and numerous raptors overhead.

After an unforgettable game drive and picnic lunch on the crater floor, you will ascend the rim and begin your return journey to Arusha.

Drop-off Information:

For the group-joining option, drop-off normally starts from 17:30 up to 18:30 (5:30 pm – 6:30 pm).

For the private option, drop-off is normally around 17:30 (5:30 pm). However, the private option is flexible depending on customer customization and prior arrangements.

Your safari concludes with lasting memories of Tanzania’s remarkable wildlife and landscapes.
