Tour Itinerary

Day 1: Arusha – Serengeti National Park

You’ll have a morning drive to Serengeti National Park, for an afternoon game drive with packed lunch. Over the next two days, we will plunge ourselves deep into the heart of this famous migration corridor.
With its wide-open spaces, bright blue skies, and creature-filled landscape, we will discover why the fabled Serengeti typifies the dream of “Old Africa”. A large pride of lions laze in the tall grasses; families of elephants feed on acacia bark and trumpet to each other across the plains; while giraffes, gazelles, monkeys, eland, and the whole range of African wildlife present themselves in awe-inspiring numbers. Your overnight stay will be at Seronera Campsite.

Day 2: Serengeti National Park

Today will be the “Serengeti game viewing day”. After breakfast this morning, enjoy an amazing game drive. The great diversity of Serengeti wildlife is evident here—look for buffalo, hippopotamus, elephant, giraffe, antelope, Thompson’s and Grant’s gazelle, and lions. If you are there during the spectacular wildebeest migration, you will be more than astonished. In the late afternoon, we will venture out in another game drive.
There are animals everywhere! Monkeys, birds and look closely, you will be thrilled to see the huge jungle cats—lion, leopard, and cheetah—watching the world go by. And going by it does. See rhino, gazelle, antelope, and massive elephants by the hundreds. There are animals in the trees, flying, camouflaged in the bush, in rivers, and in streams. This is the adventure of a lifetime! Your overnight stay will be at Seronera Campsite.

Day 3: Serengeti National Park – Ngorongoro Crater

After breakfast in the am, you’ll go for a game drive in Serengeti National Park with your picnic lunch until noon, to see the beauty of this great park. In the afternoon after lunch, have a game en route to Ngorongoro Crater for dinner and your overnight stay at Simba Campsite.

Day 4: Ngorongoro Crater – Arusha

After an early breakfast at around 5:50 am, descend down the crater at 6:00 am for a 6- to 7-hour game drive with a picnic lunch. We’ll venture onto the crater floor for an up-close at the residents of this World Heritage Site. We’ll also enjoy a picnic lunch here. The Ngorongoro Crater provides great game-viewing all year round. The wildlife here makes up a permanent population because grazing and water supplies are plentiful throughout the seasons. In the afternoon, you’ll drive back to Arusha. End of service!
