This 4-day African safari specifically includes the Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, and Ngorongoro Crater.

You will experience the excitement of wildlife viewing in three of the most spectacular national game parks in Tanzania.

Day 1: Arusha to Tarangire National Park

After breakfast at your accommodation in Arusha, you will be met by our driver-guide, who will deliver a short briefing. Then, you’ll head into the Tarangire National Park for a game drive. The park runs along the line of the Tarangire River and is mainly made up of low-lying hills on the Great Rift Valley floor. Its natural vegetation mainly consists of acacia woodland and giant African baobab trees, with huge swamp areas in the south. Both the river and the swamps act like a magnet for wild animals during Tanzania’s dry season. The Tarangire National Park is reputed to contain some of the largest elephant herds in Africa. This national park is also home to three rare species of animals: the greater Kudu, the fringed-eared oryx, and a few Ashy starlings. You’ll have a picnic lunch, after which you’ll continue with the game until late evening. Then, you’ll drive to the Ngedere budget Lodge for an overnight stay.

Day 2: Mto wa Mbu to Serengeti National Park

The entire day is dedicated to wildlife viewing in the Serengeti. After breakfast in the morning, we will transport you to Serengeti National Park, the third-largest national park in Tanzania. The Serengeti is renowned for hosting the Big Five and a variety of other animals. You will enjoy the game drive until lunchtime, allowing you to witness the diverse wildlife present in the park.

Day 3: Serengeti National Park to Ngorongoro Highland

On this day, you will descend over 600 meters into the crater to view wildlife. Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeests, zebras, buffaloes, elands, warthogs, hippos, and giant African elephants. Another big drawcard to this picturesque national park is its dense population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopards, which sometimes require a trained eye to spot. A large number of flamingos, hippos, and other water birds can usually be seen here. In the late afternoon, you’ll transfer to the campsite for an overnight stay.

Huge herds of wildebeests and zebras traverse its plains during their annual migration. Livestock belonging to the semi-nomadic Maasai tribe graze alongside wild animals. Hominin fossils found in the Olduvai Gorge date back millions of years. In the afternoon, you’ll leave the national park and travel back to Arusha.
