Day 1

Tarangire National Park

This is the moment you've been waiting for: your Tanzanian safari starts here. You have so much to look forward to and we'll get your trip underway as soon as we give you an introduction to our team and explain what lies ahead.

If you’ve never been to Tarangire (and even if you have) you’re in for a real treat. Tarangire is filled with giants – baobab trees all across the park, as well as elephants, lots of them. But that’s just the beginning. Of the big cats, you’ll probably see lions, and cheetahs and leopards are around, too. And it’s impossible to miss the wildebeest, giraffes, hippos, buffaloes and zebras. Your backdrop for all of this is one of the prettiest in northern Tanzania, with a memorable mix of river woodland, open plains and rolling hills. And some vantage points to take it all in.

Activity Day 1

Morning

We'll take you on a guided game drive through Tarangire National Park this morning to look for the park's amazing wildlife. Your guide will help you find the animals and explain to you what you're seeing.

Accommodation Day 1

Bougainvillea Safari Lodge

Lodge

Something of an oasis in the busy town of Karatu, Bougainvillea Safari Lodge has big stone bungalows spread around a green garden with plenty of palm trees and a pool at its center. The rooms are spacious and come with mosquito nets, fireplaces and small outdoor sitting areas, and there's a gift shop, massage room and restaurant.

Day 2 & 3

Serengeti National Park

Welcome to the Unesco World Heritage–listed Serengeti, one of Africa’s top safari destinations. While you’re here, there’s an excellent chance that you’ll see leopards along the dry riverbanks, cheetahs out on the grasslands, and elephants, giraffes and all kinds of antelopes everywhere across the park. Watch also for the Serengeti’s famous lion prides. And that’s just the start. Some of the largest and most diverse wildlife populations on the planet roam the Serengeti, not to mention millions of wildebeest and zebras who migrate across the plains every year.

Activity Day 2

Morning

Come with us and explore Serengeti National Park on a guided game drive this morning. Your guide will lead you through a stunning savannah landscape as you look for big cats, elephants and other animals.

Activities Day 3

Morning

The guided game drive is the best thing about going on safari and that's what you'll be doing this morning in Serengeti National Park. From the comfort of your vehicle, there's always a chance that you might see some of the animals that you came so far to see.

Optional Day 3

Early Morning

Rise above Serengeti National Park in the magical light of early morning in a hot-air balloon. The views are simply incredible, and even elephants look like ants from up here.

Accommodation Day 2 & 3

Baobab Serengeti Camp - Central

Tented camp

You get the best of many worlds when you stay at Baobab Serengeti Camp. You'll be staying in the popular Seronera area of the central Serengeti, and yet the camp's location, by the banks of the (often-dry) Orangi River, is delightfully quiet. Elegant safari tents look out over an area where wildlife regularly passes by. There's a dining and a bar-lounge tent, and the stars are simply amazing at night.

Meal Plan Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

Day 4

Ngorongoro Highlands

There's so much to look forward to when you visit the Ngorongoro Highlands. It's a world of cool-climate forests and views of craters and cliffs that come into focus through the trees. Watch also for the wildlife that lives in the forest, such as elephants and buffaloes, and leopards if you're very lucky.

Activity Day 4

Morning

Come with us this morning for a guided game drive. We love showing off the landscapes and wildlife of Serengeti National Park, and part of the excitement is about never quite knowing which animals are going to appear.

Accommodation Day 4

Embalakai Ngorongoro Camp

Tented camp

In a wonderfully quiet setting surrounded by trees, Embalakai Ngorongoro Camp has one of the more tranquil locations in the Ngorongoro area. Here you'll sleep in safari tents with rustic wooden furnishings and fine views. The public area, with bar and dining area, looks out over the treetop canopy, and you're well-placed for trips into the crater or to a nearby Maasai village.

Meal Plan Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

Day 5

Ngorongoro Crater

Your day in and around Ngorongoro Crater could just be one of the most memorable of your whole safari. You’ll explore the crater rim and then drive down onto the crater floor, where the critically endangered black rhinos are the stars of an astonishing wildlife show. You’ll almost certainly see large-tusked elephants, at least one of the Ngorongoro’s four lion prides, and wandering clans of spotted hyenas. It also just happens to be one of Africa’s most beautiful corners, a hidden world where you’ll be surrounded by steep, deep-green crater walls, a salt lake, forests and hippo-filled waterways.

Activity Day 5

Morning

Exploring Ngorongoro Crater in the company of an expert guide could make your guided game drive here one of the highlights of your whole safari. Look for lions, black rhinos and spotted hyenas as you drive around the crater floor this morning.

Accommodation Day 5

Bougainvillea Safari Lodge

Lodge

Return to Bougainvillea Safari Lodge to relax in its expansive grounds.

Meal Plan Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner

Day 6

Lake Manyara National Park

Your next safari stop is Lake Manyara, a fantastic and relatively compact park. There is so much to look forward to here. To start with, there's the dramatic scenery of cliffs, forest and lake all in a relatively small area. You're also in for a treat when it comes to wildlife. Lake Manyara is famous for its elephants that roam the forests, its gregarious troops of olive baboons, and its lions which, unusually, climb trees. It's a unique combination that offers something a little different to the other parks in Tanzania's north.

Much as we'd like your tour with us to last forever, sadly today marks the end of your safari. Having shared so many wonderful experiences together, it's time to say goodbye and look back together on an amazing safari. We hope that you'll come back to travel with us again one day.

Activity Day 6

Morning

On your guided game drive through Lake Manyara National Park this morning, you might see lions up trees as well as lots of elephants in the forest. It's a fantastic way to get to know the park and learn its many secrets.
