Your itinerary
- Day 1: Kilimanjaro International Airport - Arusha Arrival.
- On arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, our driver will meet you and transfer you to Arusha, a drive of about 45 to 60 minutes. As you settle in, you’ll begin to get a feel for the surroundings, with views of the landscape and glimpses of local life along the way. On arrival at your lodge, there’s time to relax after your journey before dinner and overnight.
- Day 2: Arusha - Tarangire.
- After breakfast and a short briefing, we set off from Arusha and reach Tarangire in about two hours. As we enter the park, the baobabs and open landscape immediately stand out. We stop for a packed lunch inside, often with elephants not too far away. The afternoon is spent exploring, with good chances of spotting buffalo, giraffe, and more before we head to camp for dinner and overnight.
- Day 3: Tarangire - Ngorongoro Crater.
- After breakfast, we head out early for a morning game drive in Tarangire, when the park is at its most active. Around the river, there’s always a chance to see elephants up close and other wildlife gathering. After a packed lunch, we leave the park and drive about 2.5 hours to Ngorongoro. By evening, we arrive at the lodge to relax, enjoy dinner, and settle in for the night.
- Day 4: Kilimanjaro International Airport - Arusha depart.
- Today is a highlight of your safari as we set off after an early breakfast and head down into the Ngorongoro Crater. The drive itself is part of the experience, winding through forest before opening onto the crater floor below. Once inside, it’s full of life lions, elephants, and if we’re lucky, even rhino. We spend the morning exploring and enjoy a packed lunch in this incredible setting. Later, we begin the five-hour drive to Kilimanjaro International Airport, with plenty of memories to take home.
