Day 1: Arusha to Tarangire National Park
Start the stunning drive to Tarangire National Park, where you can see sizable herds of elephants. From savannas to seasonal marshes, witness a range of scenery. At the same time, the Tarangire River meanders through the national park. It's possible to spot leopards lounging in the branches above and lions pursuing their prey.
After the game drive, return to Africa Safari Lake Manyara (Safari Tent) to unwind, have supper, and spend the night.
Day 2-3: Serengeti National Park
After breakfast, depart for Serengeti National Park on a game drive and enjoy lunch at a suitable place inside the park. Continue the game drive activity in the afternoon before reaching the Kontiki Serengeti Camp. Spend the following day inside the park on game drives.
Serengeti National Park is well-known for its great migrating herds of zebra, antelope, and wildebeest. However, be ready to see resident predators such as leopards, cheetahs, and lions fulfilling their role in the circle of life.
Day 4: Serengeti National Park to Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast, depart for Ngorongoro Conservation Area for a game drive inside Ngorongoro Crater while carrying lunch boxes. Once the game drive is complete, drive back to your lodge to relax, have dinner, and stay overnight at Africa Safari Lake Manyara (Safari Tent).
The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is the area that constitutes the largest uninterrupted caldera in the world and one of the natural wonders of Africa. About 30,000 large mammals are resident all year round (such as buffaloes, lions, elephants, cheetahs, and rhinos), and a wide variety of birds (such as flamingos, eagles, and buzzards).
Day 5: Cultural Experience at Lake Eyasi and Return to Arusha
After breakfast, drive to Lake Eyasi, where you will meet the Hadzabe tribe. This tribe is famous for hunting, so you can go hunting with them and see how they do it. Next, visit the Datoga tribe, well-known for its skills as a blacksmith. Explore the rest of Lake Eyasi and stroll through the village at leisure.
Finally, drive back to Arusha, where the safari ends.
