On arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport or Arusha Airport, you will be met by the Tanzania Adventures Group team and transferred to your hotel in Arusha. This day is ideal for safari briefing, rest after your flight, and final preparation before the safari starts. Depending on arrival time, guests can relax at the lodge and prepare for the adventure ahead.
After breakfast, depart Arusha for Tarangire National Park, one of Tanzania’s most attractive parks for elephant herds, giant baobab trees, and varied landscapes. You will enjoy a full game drive in the park with picnic lunch while searching for elephants, giraffes, zebras, lions, and many bird species. In the afternoon, continue toward Karatu or the Tarangire area for dinner and overnight.
This morning you drive through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area highlands on the way to Serengeti National Park. The journey itself is scenic and becomes part of the safari experience as wildlife sightings begin before reaching the central Serengeti plains. After entering the park, continue with an afternoon game drive en route to camp or lodge.
Guests interested in seasonal herd movement can also compare this route with the 6 Days Mid-Range Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari July and the 6 Days Mid-Range Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari September for travellers focusing on specific travel months.
Spend the full day exploring Serengeti National Park with morning and afternoon game drives. Central Serengeti offers outstanding year-round wildlife viewing and is one of the best places to look for lion prides, leopards, cheetahs, hyenas, elephants, giraffes, and large plains game. Because this is a private safari, your guide can tailor the day according to wildlife activity and your interests.
A second full day in Serengeti adds real value to the safari because it allows more time to explore different wildlife zones and increases the quality of sightings. Depending on the season, this day can be used to focus on predator action, migration movement, or a longer scenic game drive through different areas of the park. Guests wanting an even more migration-focused option may also review the 6 Days Serengeti Great Migration Safari Package and the 5 Days Luxury Serengeti Wildebeest Migration Safari Package.
After breakfast, enjoy a final morning game drive in Serengeti before heading toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. This transfer day still offers plenty of wildlife viewing, beautiful landscapes, and photographic opportunities. By late afternoon, arrive at your lodge near the crater rim or in Karatu for dinner and overnight, ready for the Ngorongoro Crater safari on the next day.
Descend into the Ngorongoro Crater for a memorable half-day safari in one of Africa’s most famous wildlife destinations. The crater floor offers a high concentration of animals including lions, buffalo, wildebeest, zebra, hippos, hyenas, and excellent chances of seeing rhinos. After lunch, drive back to Arusha, where the safari ends with drop-off at the hotel or airport depending on your onward arrangements.
