Day 1

Arusha National Park

It's time to begin your safari. Welcome to Tanzania! After we greet you and provide you with the trip briefing, we'll take you out to help you discover why so many people think Tanzania is the best place in Africa to go on safari.

You never forget your first view of Arusha National Park, with Mt Meru – one of the Rift Valley’s most beautiful mountains – rising above it. Once you get to know it a little better, you’ll also enjoy the wildlife – giraffe, zebra, buffalo and birdlife, with sightings of elephant and hippo possible too. There’s also Ngurdoto Crater, which they sometimes call ‘Little Ngorongoro’, such is its resemblance to the world-famous crater to the west. Scenery being the main attraction is a nice alternative to the more wildlife-focused parks elsewhere.

Day 2

Lake Manyara National Park

You're going to love Lake Manyara National Park because it promises experiences you just can't get elsewhere. For example, this is one of the most compact parks in Tanzania's north: the park consists of a narrow strip of forest shadowed by vast Lake Manyara on one side and the cliffs of the Rift Valley escarpment on the other. The park is known for its large elephant and baboon populations, and part of the excitement of visiting here is never quite knowing when you're going to come face-to-face with an elephant. And then there are the tree-climbing lions for which the park is famous: this is one of very few places in Africa where lions routinely climb (and spend much of their time up in) trees.

Activity Day 2

Come with us as we look for lions, elephants and so much more amid the baobab trees and classic safari scenery of Tarangire National Park.

Accommodation Day 2

Marera Valley Lodge

Lodge

There is a wonderful feeling of light and space when you stay at Marera Valley Lodge.

The rooms are large and supremely comfortable, and they offer welcome respite off the busy road that connects Lake Manyara with Ngorongoro Crater.

Day 3

Lake Natron

You'll explore Lake Natron, a vast Rift Valley lake in Tanzania's far north, right alongside the border with Kenya. The lake is known for its wild beauty and for its populations of flamingos. Another highlight of your visit here will be the views you can enjoy of the stunning volcano, Ol Doinyo Lengai, which rises above the lake's southern shore.

Day 4 to 6

Serengeti National Park

Unesco World Heritage–listed Serengeti National Park will almost certainly be one of the highlights of your safari, and it's the kind of place that very quickly becomes a favorite. That's partly because of the wildlife: this is one of the best places anywhere to see lions, leopards and cheetahs. Although every big cat sighting is special, they're only a part of the story here: there's a good chance you'll also see elephants, zebras, giraffes, wildebeest, buffaloes and spotted hyenas and much more. Many travelers' love affair with the Serengeti is also because of its landscapes: expect vast savannah grasslands, acacia trees and pretty hill country.

Day 6, Ngorongoro Crater

You're going to love everything about Ngorongoro Crater, from its amazing wildlife (lions, hyenas, black rhinos and flamingos are just the start) and beautiful scenery to its lost-world feel.

Day 7

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.
