After your nourishing breakfast, you will be transferred to Arusha airstrip and catch your flight to Serengeti National Park. Depending on the season, you will land at either Seronera Airstrip in the central Serengeti or Kogatende Airstrip on the northern part of Serengeti National park where you can enjoy the so called Serengeti migration and discover the movement of thousands of wildebeest and zebras grazing on the plains of Serengeti and sometime crossing the Mara River to the other side of the park in Kenya Masai Mara. You will be warmly welcomed at the airport by your safari driver guide and enjoy the en route game drive to your hotel. Dinner and overnight in a 5 stars Hotel in Serengeti National Park.After breakfast depart for your first destination, Tarangire National Park, a gem of a park often overlooked on the standard tour routes.

Overnights: Tarangire Public Camp. All Meals Included.

Drive up the Rift Valley escarpment to the Ngorongoro Highlands for a guided two-hour hike through the forested highlands inside the Ngorongoro Conservation Area to a majestic 150-meter waterfall and elephant caves, so-called because the deep recesses in the valley wall are created by elephants digging the earth to ingest the mineral-rich soil. This soil also attracts buffalo, bushbuck, waterbuck, and baboons.

Continue southwest to Lake Eyasi. Walking paths carved through the lake shore forest allow visitors to experience this beautiful and unique environment on foot, where you may spot dik dik, bushbuck, vervet monkeys, and hippopotamus in the lake’s environs. The area is also known for its abundant bird life. We set our camp in the forest along Lake Eyasi.

Overnight: Lake Eyasi Bush Camp. All meals incuded

The Lake Eyasi area is home to the Hadzabe, the last remaining hunter-gatherers in Tanzania, and the Datoga, a proud pastoralist people who in an earlier time were fierce enemies of the Maasai. Spend the morning with an experienced guide and interpreter of the Hadzabe, where you will learn about their fascinating culture and survival skills in the harsh environment and have a bush walk and small game hunt. An afternoon visit to a Datoga compound to share their lifestyle is another unforgettable experience.

Overnight: Lake Eyasi Bush Camp. All meals included.

Next stop is the Serengeti, Tanzania’s largest national park. The 5,700 square mile park consists of treeless plains, savannah dotted with acacia and granite outcroppings called kopjes, riverine bush, and forest. Across its boundless expanse animals extend as far as the eye can see in a scene that exists nowhere else in the world and one that is quintessentially African. Game drive deep into the central Serengeti, where we set up our camp for two nights.

On these days, your SENE guide, a trained expert in East African wildlife and ecology, will explore with you the vast Serengeti in search of the best game-viewing opportunities, dependent on the seasonal and daily migration patterns. You may take early morning pre-dawn game drives and late afternoon game drives at dusk – the times of the day at which the animals are most active – with a rest at camp for lunch. Or take a full day game drive with a picnic lunch to explore a greater range of the Serengeti.

Overnights: Seronera Public Camp.

Take a final morning game drive through the magical Serengeti.

On our return east, stop along the way to visit Olduvai Gorge, site of Louis and Mary Leakey’s archeological discoveries of early human ancestors, and enjoy a picnic lunch. Continue on to the cool and verdant rim of the Ngorongoro Crater. Simba (Swahili for lion) camp sits at 7,000 feet on the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater with incredible views down to the floor of the caldera.

Overnight: Simba Public Camp. All meals Icluded.

After an early breakfast, descend nearly 3,000 feet to the floor of the Ngorongoro Crater, where the 100 square mile extinct caldera teems with wildlife in such density and abundance that it is almost too hard to believe. Every game animal – both predator and prey – in East Africa can be found here, with the exception of giraffe and impala. The crater is the best place to spot the rare and elusive black rhino and old bull elephants who come there to “retire” and enjoy the sweet swamp grasses. Picnic lunch in the crater then drive back to Arusha.

Overnight: Outpost Lodge or equivalent. Dinner and breakfast Included.

Depending on your International departure flight, we will transfer you to Kilimanjaro airport for your departure. If you flight leave late afternoon, this will be your free day in Arusha for shopping, have lunch in town while waiting for your departing time.
