DAY 1: KILIMANJARO AIRPORT JRO – ARUSHA
Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro Airport, You will be met by Sweet Of Tanzania Adventure representative who will hold a sign with your name and transfer you to the Hotel in Arusha, approximately 45-60 min drive.
DAY 2-3: TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK
Morning pickup from your accommodation in Arusha will be followed by overland travel to Tarangire National Park (2h), and the scenery gradually changes from a small vibrant town to wide open plains and Masaai settlements dwelling in the distance. Tarangire is famous for its giant baobab trees, massive herds of elephants and the seasonal marshes, and starting your safari from here will surely get you off your seat with excitement. Your game drive might be rewarded with the sites of lions, elephants, leopards, buffalo, gerenuk, reedbuck and perhaps even the rare fringe-eared oryx. Accommodation Dinner and overnight at the Lodge.
DAY 4: LAKE MANYARA NATIONAL PARK
Lake Manyara National Park is renowned for its black-maned, tree-climbing lions and large herds of buffaloes and elephants, not to mention the flocks of flamingos and pelicans that can be found on the shores of the lake itself, and also a lot of aquatic birds. Here you can expect full day of game drive in the park, followed by visit to the village of Mto Wa Mbu, before you ascend part of the Great Rift Valley toward your lodge. Dinner and overnight at the lodge.
DAY 5: NGORONGORO CONSERVATION AREA (CRATER) TO NDUTU
We start this day bright and early to be one of the first vehicle in Ngorongoro Crater’s floor. Ngorongoro is the world’s largest unflooded and intact volcanic caldera with a famed reputation for Africa’s Garden of Eden. The 2,000 feet high walls surrounding the 16-kilometer wide crater create a natural dome that contains everything essential for wildlife to exist and survive. Highlights of this protected area game one of Tanzania’s most sustainable populations of the critically endangered black or browse rhino. A game drive through the crater is almost always accompanied by encounters with the Big Five (lion, leopard, rhino, elephant and Cape buffalo). By mid-afternoon, your journey continues toward your next destination – Ndutu plains. Accommodation dinner and overnight at the lodge.
DAY 6-7: NGORONGORO NDUTU PLAINS, SOUTHERN SERENGETI PLAINS
The Ndutu plains are seasonal location tucked between the NCAA and Serengeti, allowing off-road game drives, perfect for migration viewing. The Great Migration is a perpetual movement of over 1.5 million of wildebeest, zebra, antelope and other migratory wildlife in search of fresh food and water. From January to February, Ndutu is expected to have a dense concentration of migratory herds, as it hosts the highly anticipated calving season. With the gathering of the Great Migration along with thousands of baby calves born every day, predators such as lion, cheetah, leopard, and hyena will also follow in a desperate fight for survival. Be alert for the striped hyena, a rare carnivore which prefers the Ndutu area and often spotted at dusk or dawn. Accommodation dinner and overnight at the lodge.
DAY 8-9: CENTRAL SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK
Venture to Serengeti National Park, and meet its endless plains, home of one of the largest wildlife population in the world. Your adventure around the Serengeti Kopjes may reveal all sorts of wildlife ranging from insects, snakes, lizards to large predators such as lion, leopards and cheetahs. Kopjes provide excellent vantage points to survey the surrounding area for food source or predators. Keep an eye out for Hyrax, small herbivore mammal exclusive to the Kopjes and surprisingly, the closest relative to the elephant. Various smaller carnivore residents in Serengeti include the common genet, the African civet, the honey badger and at least five mongoose species.
DAY 10: HOME
On the last morning in the Serengeti, you will enjoy a leisurely breakfast or perhaps head out for a short early morning game drive before traveling to Seronera Airstrip to board your scheduled flight back to Arusha. Upon pick-up, make an optional stop at a local shop with an abundance of wood carvings, artifacts, paintings and crafts. Afterwards, rest at a day room and enjoy a farewell lunch in Arusha before your departure from Kilimanjaro Airport.
