Your adventure begins with an early morning pickup from your hotel in Arusha. Travel across the dramatic landscapes of the Great Rift Valley toward Lake Manyara National Park for a full-day game drive. Though small, this park is bursting with life — lush forests of mahogany and fig trees shelter playful baboons and blue monkeys, while open plains reveal elephants, giraffes, zebras, and buffaloes. Along the lake’s edge, spot hippos basking in the shallows and marvel at flocks of flamingos coloring the waters pink. Optional activities include a guided bike ride or a boat excursion.

After an early breakfast, depart for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, one of Africa’s true natural wonders. Descend 2,000 feet into the world’s largest intact volcanic caldera — a wildlife sanctuary often called the “Garden of Eden.” The crater floor hosts nearly every species found in East Africa, including black rhinos, lions, elephants, buffaloes, zebras, and wildebeests. Explore the forest, swamps, and the soda lake lined with flamingos, then enjoy a picnic lunch surrounded by breathtaking views. In the late afternoon, ascend the crater walls for your overnight stay nearby. Main Destination: Ngorongoro Crater Meals: All meals included

Today you’ll drive through the highlands toward the iconic Serengeti National Park — Tanzania’s largest and most celebrated wildlife reserve. As the landscape opens into endless golden plains, you’ll understand why “Serengeti” means “the place where the land runs forever.” The park teems with life — from migrating herds of wildebeests and zebras to prides of lions and stealthy leopards resting in acacia trees. Enjoy game drives en route to the central region, where you’ll spend the night surrounded by the rhythm of the wild. Main Destination: Central Serengeti National Park Meals: All meals included

Spend the day exploring the heart of the Serengeti. The Seronera Valley, rich in water and wildlife, offers some of the best year-round game viewing in Africa. Depending on your preference, you can embark on an early morning and late afternoon game drive or spend the whole day exploring with a packed picnic lunch. Look for lions lounging under the shade, elephants crossing the plains, and cheetahs scanning the horizon for prey. Every corner reveals another breathtaking scene in this endless wilderness. Main Destination: Central Serengeti National Park Meals: All meals included

Over the next two days, you’ll follow the path of the Great Migration — one of nature’s most spectacular events. The location of your game drives will depend on the season: in the north near the Mara River between July and October, in the south (Ndutu area) from December to March, or in the west during the mid-year months. Wherever you go, expect incredible wildlife encounters — from massive wildebeest herds and zebra crossings to dramatic predator action as lions, cheetahs, and crocodiles lie in wait. Main Destination: Serengeti National Park (Migration Area) Meals: All meals included

Rise before dawn for one last game drive — a magical time when the Serengeti awakens under golden light. Watch as predators return from the hunt and herbivores graze in the morning calm. After brunch back at camp, you’ll transfer to the nearby airstrip for your flight back to Arusha or onward to your next destination, such as Zanzibar. As your safari concludes, you’ll carry home unforgettable memories of Tanzania’s wilderness and its timeless spirit.
