SAFARI ITINERARY

Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO) in Arusha, you will be greeted and transferred to your hotel. Take some time to rest and recover from your journey, as you'll need plenty of energy for the upcoming days of exploration.

After a hearty breakfast, you'll depart for Tarangire National Park. Here, you'll enjoy a full-day game drive, encountering large elephant herds, iconic baobab trees, and a rich diversity of birdlife. After an exciting day in the wild, you'll spend the night at a comfortable lodge or tented camp in or near the park.

In the morning, embark on another game drive in Tarangire National Park. Later, after lunch, you'll proceed to Lake Manyara National Park, known for its famous tree-climbing lions and diverse wildlife. Spend the day exploring the park's unique features before settling in for the night at a lodge or tented camp.

The next leg of your adventure takes you to the world-renowned Serengeti National Park. As you drive through the vast plains, you'll already be surrounded by abundant wildlife. Arriving at your lodge or tented camp, prepare for an awe-inspiring experience in this wildlife-rich habitat.

Today is dedicated to fully immersing yourself in the wonders of the Serengeti. Enjoy morning and afternoon game drives, giving you ample opportunities to witness the Great Migration (if you visit during the right season) and encounter the "Big Five" and other fascinating animals. Overnight stay at a lodge or tented camp in the Serengeti.

After breakfast, you'll drive to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Descend into the Ngorongoro Crater, a unique and astonishing caldera teeming with wildlife. This is an ideal spot to witness the "Big Five" in close proximity. The day ends with an overnight stay at a lodge or tented camp on the crater rim, offering breathtaking views.

On this day, you'll bid farewell to the safari experience and return to Arusha. From there, you'll catch a flight to Zanzibar, a picturesque island in the Indian Ocean. Upon arrival, you'll be transferred to your beach resort. Here, you can relax, unwind, and enjoy the beauty of Zanzibar's pristine beaches.

The next three days are yours to explore Zanzibar at your leisure. You have the option to engage in various activities, such as water sports, a visit to the historic Stone Town (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), a spice tour, or simply lounging on the beach and soaking up the sun. Optional activities include snorkeling, diving, or a visit to the Jozani Forest to see the rare red colobus monkeys.

After breakfast, it's time to say goodbye to Zanzibar. Depending on your flight schedule, you may have some free time for last-minute shopping or sightseeing. Your driver will transfer you to Zanzibar International Airport (ZNZ) for your departure.
