DAY 1: TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK

2 Hours drive from Arusha town to Tarangire park.

Meet your knowledgeable safari guide in the hotel bar at 7:30 am to get ready for the safari. After packing all of your safari gear into the safari car, head out for a two-hour trip to Tarangire Park, which entails a circuitous route around Arusha town. Along the way, you'll be treated to breathtaking views of Tanzania's varied wildlife, agricultural, and livestock producing landscapes. If you're lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of herdsmen leading herds of huge cattle to fresh pastures or the cattle market in the early morning hours.

Your driver-guide, who is well-versed in the nation, will provide you with general information during the two-hour trip. Before you know it, the guide will be at the Tarangire Park gate parking lot. Following standard registration procedures, set out on a game drive through an abundant panorama of boundless golden savannah forests that envelop the region and extend towards the Tarangire River. The river itself is year-round and provides the region's animals with an essential supply of water for the duration of the season. The river, which is bordered by Baobab and acacia trees, is frequently frequented by enormous herds of elephants as well as other herbivores like zebras and antelopes. For the predators, it is also the best predation sport.

You can choose to eat your picnic lunch at the picnic area or beneath an acacia or baobab tree. Your guide will provide it to you. Continue your game drive around the park after lunch, where you may spot lions, leopards, cape buffalo, and a wide range of antelopes. Should you be extremely fortunate, you may even spot threatened species like the Greater Kudu or the Fringe-Eared Oryx. Drive to the lodge or campsite after dusk for dinner and overnight.

DAY 2: DRIVE TO SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK

3-4 Hours drive to Serengeti gate & 6hrs game drive in Serengeti Park

We're in for a full and exhausting early breakfast because we have a long, bumpy, and dusty road ahead of us. After breakfast, load your things into your car and go out of the camp or lodge, passing by the picturesque Ngorongoro Conservation Area on your way to a wildlife drive. Along the trip, you may catch a glimpse of cape buffalo, herds of baboons, or perhaps elephants and leopards in the dense forest beneath the mist-covered rain forests of the reserve. You also can't miss the opportunity to view the crater from the rim by stopping at the crater view point with your binoculars.

Ngorongoro area have lots of optional activities attracting extra fees and this includes; Olduvai Gorge Museum known as the Cradle of Mankind, the Museum commemorates some of the oldest evidence of human habitation ever found of the earliest fossil in the world of human habitation. Maasai boma visit, visit/tour one of the famous authentic Maasai bomas to witness and participate in traditional Maasai dance, and even do a little souvenir shopping at the local market. Both of the above activities attract an additional cost. It's time to explore the Serengeti itself after your guide serves you a delectable picnic lunch right at the Serengeti National Park picnic site's entrance gate. See the famous savannas of Africa and be astounded by the enormous quantity of wildlife that grazes these grassy plains, including the Big Five, antelopes, and millions of wildebeest and zebras that walk this breathtaking, never-ending plain after dusk. Dinner and a night at a campsite or lodge right in the middle of the Serengeti National Park.

DAY 3: FULL DAY EXPLORE SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK.

(From sunrise to sunset from 6am to 6pm, 10-12hrs full day game drive in Serengeti)

We begin the day with a breathtaking dawn game drive over these stunning Serengeti plains, where we watch as the sun sets on the savannah grassland and predators, including lions and leopards, search for their morning prey. (Alternatively, for an additional $650 per person, you might choose to witness this morning's dawn in the skies while on a historic HOT AIR BALLOON safari, landing in champagne and cheering while waiting for a well-prepared hot bush breakfast. It's a possibility, so ask your guide how you might incorporate this amazing experience into your safari) Alternatively, you can go on a morning game drive, return to your lodge for breakfast, and then leave with a packed lunch to spend the entire day exploring the park. Your driver will decide which path will give you the best possibility of witnessing the Great Five, the hippopotamus pools, as well as the Wildebeest Migration. Numerous herds of animals, including zebras and wildebeests roaming together, elegant giraffes, gazelles and antelopes jumping, the formidable African elephant, and the most revered group of all, the predators, will be visible to you. It's possible to see slender cheetahs, bashful leopards, giggling hyenas, and, of course, the majestic lion, the monarch of the forest. Drive back after dusk to have dinner and spend the night at a camp or resort.

Day 4: SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK –OVERNIGHT NGORONGORO

On this final day in the stunning Serengeti National Park, your guide will be prepared for an early morning game drive before breakfast (a hot air balloon ride over the park's plains can be booked at an additional cost). When the first rays of sunlight reach the woods, you can observe cats preying, vultures soaring across the sky, and other predators and grazers congregating for the morning's verdant greenery. Depending on the season, the incredible wildebeest migration is a remarkable sight. The game drive ends at around 10 a.m. to fully enjoy this magnificent dawn spectacle. Once you return to the lodge or camp for a late breakfast, you will load your bags into the safari jeep and head out again for another EN-ROUTE game drive through the Serengeti via a different route to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. On your way to the RIM of Ngorongoro Crater, you will have plenty of opportunities to spot the animals that eluded you yesterday. You will spend the night at the campsite or lodge.

DAY 5: NGORONGORO CRATER TOUR – BACK TO ARUSHA

5-6 hours game drive in the crater, 3hrs drive back to Arusha

Your safari guide will be prepared to begin the descent into the Crater at 6:00 am. In order to be the first group down the crater, we have to drive through the dense canopy of the Ngorongoro rain forest and pass by large, healthy baboons by the side of the road. Your guide offers to stop at the crater view point so you can take pictures of everything that is visible through your binoculars. However, this is not always possible in the morning. Then drop 610 meters to the Ngorongoro Crater's Caldera bottom, which is regarded by some as the world's eighth wonder. As soon as you catch a sight of this enormous, lush caldera from the panoramic viewpoint, you will see why it has gained such a prestigious reputation worldwide. The renowned Big Five animals are among the more than 120 species of mammals that call the Ngorongoro Conservation Area home. It is also one of the most sought-after safari locations worldwide that no one is willing to miss. It's a particularly ideal site to witness the pride of lions and vast numbers of hippopotamus enjoying the cool water, as well as the endangered black rhinoceros enjoying a solitary lunch out on the grass plains.

Observing and photographing some of Africa's most famous wildlife faces will be possible from the comfort of your open-roof top safari vehicle. The crater is one of the greatest places in Africa and the globe for a safari, with an abundance of predators such as lions, leopards, cheetahs, jackals, and hyenas, in addition to a sizable population of wildebeest, zebras, antelope, cape buffalo, and many more.

After the day's adventures, you'll enjoy a picnic lunch by the shore of Lake Magadi, where you can get the best views of the flamingos and beware of the black kites' cunning plan to steal your food. In the late afternoon, you'll drive up the crater wall and arrive at Lake Manyara Park for dinner and an overnight stay.

A fantastic choice is a nighttime game drive at Lake Manyara Park: Discover a new world of nocturnal animal species and their behavior in the dark by going on a night game drive in Lake Manyara. This experience will give you a unique perspective on the park and its wildlife. You have never thought about this new world of animals in the bush at night. The package has additional expenses that must be paid.

DAY 6: LAKE MANYARA PARK GAME DRIVE

6-8 hours for game drive and 2-3 hours drive to Arusha town or Kilimanjaro Airport

(Optional) A park ranger will accompany you on a three to four-hour nature walk in Lake Manyara Park, where you will see beautiful scenery, various pathways, and the thick canopy forest that is home to over 100 species of birds, monkeys, baboons, and waterfalls. This is an unforgettable experience that costs a small additional price.

The Park provides some of the best game viewing in the world and is undoubtedly the greatest photographer's playground. Not to mention the Masai and Reticulated giraffes, who virtually beg to be photographed, you can expect to witness the iconic African wildlife, with the tree-climbing lions being a particular delight in this park. Lake Manyara is a birdwatcher's paradise, with hundreds of different species of birds on show throughout the park. At the Lake Natron camp, a hearty lunch is served in the afternoon. After getting enough rest, guests can walk to the waterfalls around 4 p.m. for a long, cooling dip. A good night's sleep is essential before starting the hike up Mount Oldonyo Lengai. Large flocks of larger and lesser flamingos carpeting on the lake, circling predatory birds, and the vividly colored lilac-breasted roller are sure to astonish even the most inexperienced observer. As you travel back to Arusha after passing by multiple hippopotamus pools, your sunset game drive will come to an end with a foot sip of the natural subterranean hot spring. Before you check into your hotel, you can enjoy a fantastic view of Tanzania's second-tallest mountain, Mount Meru, on a clear afternoon if the weather permits. END OF TRIP
