Trip Itinerary

 

Day 1: Karibu Tanzania - Arusha

Welcome to Kilimanjaro! Upon your arrival at the airport, our expert guide will be there to greet you and take you to the cozy lodge. As you make your way to the hotel, you'll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the rich culture of Africa. Take in the colorful streets of Arusha, breathe in the fresh, natural scents, and listen to the soothing sounds of the local roosters. When you finally reach the lodge, you can kick back and relax by the pool, sipping on a refreshing drink and letting all your cares melt away. Karibuni sana!
This trip is a one-of-a-kind safari experience, tailored specifically to your preferences. In consultation with your guide, you'll be able to decide on the schedule for your game drives, determining start and end times and how long you'd like to spend observing each animal. Our expert guides are knowledgeable and passionate about the local landscape and wildlife, and they can't wait to share their insights with you. Don't hesitate to ask them anything!

Day 2: Tarangire - Tanzania's Wildlife Haven

Tarangire National Park is a must-see destination for any wildlife enthusiast visiting Tanzania. Spread out over 2,600 square kilometers, this park is home to towering baobab trees hundreds of years old and large herds of elephants. In addition to these iconic African animals, Tarangire is also home to a wide variety of other wildlife, including giraffes, zebras, and over 500 species of birds.

One of the highlights of a visit to Tarangire is the chance to see the Tarangire River, which is an important water source for the park's animals. During the dry season (June to October), the river attracts a large number of animals from the surrounding area, making it an excellent time to visit the park. Your Tanzania Specialist guide will be able to take you to the best spots to see the wildlife and explain the unique features of Tarangire National Park. Whether you're interested in seeing the majestic elephants, spotting rare birds, or learning about the local culture and history, Tarangire has something for everyone.

 

Day 3&4: Wildlife Wonders Of The Serengeti

Your experienced guide will lead you on game drives through the park, providing insight into the plants and animals you encounter along the way. You'll have the opportunity to spot predators stalking their prey, or witness the gentle grace of a herd of gazelles as they graze on the savannah. The diverse ecosystems of Serengeti, from open grasslands to dense forests, offer a wealth of opportunities for wildlife viewing.

After a day of exploring the Serengeti, retire to your luxurious safari tent and listen to the distant roar of a lion or the bleating of a large herd of migrating animals as you drift off to sleep. This is the ultimate safari experience! On your way to or from the Serengeti, you'll also pass through the Ngorongoro Highlands, a stunning landscape home to giraffes and several Maasai tribes.

Day 5: Exploring The Ngorongoro Conservation Area

Ngorongoro Conservation Area is a vast natural reserve located in Tanzania, home to a unique and breathtaking destination - the Ngorongoro Crater. This small but incredibly fertile area spans 20 by 20 kilometers and is surrounded by steep crater walls. The Ngorongoro Crater is home to an impressive 25,000 large animals on any given day, making it one of the best places in the world to see an abundance of wildlife, including the Big Five - lions, elephants, and buffaloes - and several rare black rhinos.

Looking for a more immersive experience in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area? Consider joining a guided ranger walk on the edge of the Ngorongoro Crater or a walking safari in the nearby Empekai Crater. Both options offer the chance to come face to face with some of the area's incredible wildlife, including elephants and wildebeest.

 

Day 6: Relax Romance At The Foothills

Early in the morning you'll drive for about 2hrs to the foothills of Kilimanjaro where you'll have a golden chance to immerse yourself in Chagga culture through Materuni Waterfalls hiking and a coffee tour in the local village. This is more than connecting to the nature as it goes beyond and find you interracting with local people, experiencing their cultural way of life.

After Materuni, we will take you to Kikuletwa Hotsprings for a warm swim and experiencing what really nature offers here! An incredible day not-to-miss when landing to Tanzania!

Day 7-11: Unveiling The Hidden Gems Of Zanzibar

Zanzibar offers a wide range of activities and attractions for visitors to enjoy. The island is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, with crystal-clear waters perfect for swimming and snorkeling. Visitors can also explore the island's rich history and culture by taking a guided tour of Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, or visiting the spice plantations for which Zanzibar is famous. For those seeking a bit of adventure, there are opportunities for scuba diving, deep-sea fishing, and even swimming with dolphins. Whatever your interests, Zanzibar has something to offer for everyone.

 

Day 12: Last Day - Returning Home From Your Adventure

Today marks the end of your adventure. Take some time to unwind and savor the memories of your trip. Later in the evening, you'll be returning home.

If you're not quite ready to say goodbye to your vacation just yet, consider extending your stay with a few days on one of Tanzania's breathtaking islands. Zanzibar, Pemba Island, and Mafia Island are all excellent choices, each offering its own unique blend of sandy beaches, crystal clear waters, and tropical beauty. We'd be happy to help you add on a few extra days at the beach, whether you want to stay for a few more days or extend your trip even longer. Just let us know and we'll make the arrangements for you.
