Day 03: Serengeti National Park
After breakfast, depart for Serengeti National Park with a picnic lunch and game drive en route. A million wildebeest… each one driven by the same ancient rhythm, fulfilling its instinctive role in the inescapable cycle of life: a frenzied three-week bout of territorial conquests and mating; Serengeti Serena Lodge F/B Dinner and overnight
Day 04:-Full day in Serengeti Park.
After breakfast, we will take your packed lunch for a full day of game drives in the wilderness, tracking the great migration trails. A thorough explanation of this great world event that Tanzania is proud of will be provided. And in the evening, as the sun goes down, Tanzania’s oldest and most popular national park, also a world heritage site and recently proclaimed a 7th world wide wonder, the Serengeti, is famed for its annual migration, the evening drive back to the Serengeti Serena Lodge F/B
Day 05: Serengeti National Park – Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast, a morning game drive at Serengeti National Park, with the option of a balloon safari early in the morning for an extra cost. Yet even when the migration is quiet, the Serengeti offers arguably the most scintillating game-viewing in Africa: great herds of buffalo, smaller groups of elephant and giraffe, and thousands upon thousands of eland, topi, kongoni, impala, and Grant’s gazelle, Ngorongoro Serena Lodge F/B
Day 06: Ngorongoro Crater.
On this day, we will start early in the morning for the game drive (with a picnic lunch) inside the Ngorongoro Crater. As very few animals migrate in and out of the crater with its 2000 ft. high walls, you can expect to see lions, elephants, zebras, hippos, flamingos, jackals, rhinos, antelopes, many birds and other species. It is not a national park in the strict sense of the word, but the NCA was established to conserve wildlife and other natural resources. It also safeguards the interests of indigenous people and promotes tourism. Thus, guests on safari have the unique experience of seeing Maasai herdsmen whose cattle graze side by side with the tremendous variety of wildlife found in the area. Dinner and overnight at Ngorongoro Serena Lodge F/B
DAY 07:–Tarangire National Park
After breakfast, picnic lunch, drive to Tarangire for a full day game drive in the park. Located slightly off the main safari route, Tarangire National Park is a lovely, quiet park in northern Tanzania that is most famous for its elephant migration, birding, and quiet, authentic safari atmosphere. The majority of travellers to the region either miss out on Tarangire altogether or venture into the park for a matter of hours, leaving parts of Tarangire virtually untouched. Drive to Tarangire Sopa Lodge F/B in the evening for an overnight stay at Tarangire Sopa Lodge F/B
Day 8: Arusha-Departure Day
After breakfast, leave to drive back to Arusha for the day, according to your flight departure schedule, proceed to the airport for your flight to/home.
