About this Tour
Here on a three days adventure, you can expect the best of what a part of the beautiful Tanzania’s Northern circuit has to offer in abundance. Right after you have left your Hotel in Arusha, you will stop by in the beautiful Tarangire, the Elephant Eden and beautiful huge baobab trees for a full day game drive.
This safari continues with a visit to the famed Ngorongoro Conservation Area, followed by a visit to Lake Manyara National Park, which features a diversity of scenery and lovely wildlife. In all of these places, you can expect to experience a once-in-a-lifetime encounter with hundreds of animals and birds. On the other hand, the amazing vista is wonderful in and of itself.
Your Trip’s Roadmap
On your arrival, one of our staff members will pick you from the Kilimanjaro International Airport and take you to your booked hotel, where you will get a short briefing about the tour. We believe that you will enjoy your stay here and hope that your safari with Zoe will exceeds your expectations.
In the morning after you have taken your breakfast at around 6:00 am, your driver guide will arrive at the hotel and pick you up, ready to take you to Tarangire National Park. It takes approximately … hours to get to the Tarangire gate. Popularly known as the Elephant Playground, Tarangire has a lot to offer from its magnificent variety of wild animals and its huge area. A large population of Elephants find their home here. Other animals like lion, buffalo, gazelle, zebra, and gnu are also found here. Expect to see many other mammals with amazing views like giraffes feeding from the beautiful acacia branches, zebras and gazelles hanging around together. Sometimes when lucky we get to see the pride of lions lying under trees, and if lucky enough, you might get to see cheetahs, onyx and kudu from the road stand-point.
So, what is it about Tarangire that makes it so unique? You are free to inquire. As the temperature changes, the agama male lizard, which changes colors right before your eyes, will leave you speechless. The hyrax - an elephant-like mammal also known as Pimbi - will brighten your day, among many other fantastic scenarios.
You won't pass many trees without spotting something that will intrigue your interest. A brilliant starling or a lilac-breasted roller may be a stunning splash of color. It's difficult not to laugh at the well-named, studious-looking secretary bird as it awkwardly pads over the grasslands.
Grand baobab trees, rolling grasslands, and acacia woodland are all well-known features of the Tarangire National Park. After a lengthy game drive and a picnic lunch, you'll depart the park for Karatu, a small town in the spectacular Ngorongoro highlands. One of the Lodges here will be your home for the night.
After breakfast in the early morning, your driver guide and you will head for your next destination, Tanzania's oldest and most famous Serengeti National Park. It takes up to 3 hours and 30 minutes to get here before your game drive starts. Unlike many other areas on the planet, the Serengeti is a one-of-a-kind ecosystem. The breathtaking scenery, bright shifting light, and, of course, the plethora of species that have made this their home will fascinate you. With thousands of predators – and hundreds of thousands of prey – it is no surprise there is always something fascinating going on in the animal communities.
While out on your game drive with your guide on today's safari, you're quite likely to encounter a lion, leopard, elephant, zebra, cheetah, and antelope, among many other species. You'll be on your way back to your lodging for some well-deserved rest, a delicious dinner, and a restful night's sleep.
After breakfast, you'll travel on a morning game drive in the beautiful Serengeti, marveling at the animal inhabitants. The Seronera section of the Central Serengeti is the most visited sector in the national park, thanks to its informative visitor center. Animals love it, too. There is always something to see because the Seronera River runs all year.
There are several game drives available, which may reveal massive prides of lions, hippo, or elephant herds (the park's elephant population has recently increased). Considering your intentions, you might wish to stop at the Serengeti Visitor Centre, which offers an excellent overview of the park's eco-system as well as information on the region's conservation history. Bernhard Grzimek and the Frankfurt Zoological Society, who envisioned the Serengeti's eco-preservation system, will be highlighted.
Following lunch, you will head to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area in the south-east.
After taking your breakfast at the dawn, you will head to the Ngorongoro Crater, the world's biggest full volcanic crater and the heart of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. You sure wouldn’t want to miss out on anything in this elephant country. As they approach the end of their life, the big male tuskers come to feed the soft, swampland grasses on the side of the surrounding swampland, which is frequently referred to as the "elephant graveyard."
The Ngorongoro crater is known for its huge number of many animals. Statistic shows that there are roughly 9,000 zebra, as well as 15,000 gnu, 120 lions with well-defined territories, 400 hyenas, and approximately 50 black rhino. Many gnus and other herd animals reside here year-round, taking use of the multiple water sources that are available all year and are fed by migrators during the mating season. There are eland, Serval, jackal, Thomson's gazelle, and buffalo. Hippos are commonly seen in ponds and marshes. The highlands' vegetation and animals are lively and numerous around water. Flamingos flock to Lake Magadi, which covers a section of the crater floor. After your morning game drive and lunch in this stunning crater, you'll have a 190.6-kilometer trip back to Arusha that will take roughly 4 hours.
