Detailed Itinerary.

Day 1: Arrival at Kilimanjaro Airport.

When you arrive in Arusha via Kilimanjaro International Airport, our driver guide will bring you to any lodge of your choice. If you enjoy luxury, Legendary Lodge is one choice that will pique your interest. It is a colonial-style luxury retreat located in lush tropical gardens on a coffee farm just outside Arusha. Its twelve garden houses are quite amazing. They have views of Mount Meru, which is renowned with breathtaking sunrises. It’s amazing to see the clouds hover just below its apex. You can enjoy all of these vistas from the comfort of your verandah. At night, you will be taken to a welcome dinner, after which our head guide will explain how your journey will proceed.

Meals: (Lunch, Dinner).

Day 2: Transfer to Tarangire National Park

After breakfast, check out of your hotel and head to Tarangire National Park. The Tarangire River’s life-giving waters support the savannah landscape. You will stay at Olivers Camp, an eco-friendly resort that is tucked away from the tourists and close to an area that attracts large herds of elephants, who will steal your heart with their family spirit and fun temperament. Here, you may watch their happy babies bathe and play in the water. At night, you will be treated to a beautiful private meal and a spectacular campfire. After lunch, you will have a quick rest before embarking on an afternoon game drive in search of giraffes, waterbucks, wildebeest, zebras, and elephants, as well as hartebeest, gazelles, and birds such as the big martial eagle.

Meals: (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner).

Day 3: Game Drive in Tarangire National Park

You will go on a guided morning game drive looking for animals that you did not see the day before. Leopards are frequently seen reclining in trees or less than 3 metres from our truck, particularly on the way back to camp.

Meals: (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner).

Day 4: Transfer to Ngorongoro Crater

After breakfast, check out of Olivers Camp and cross the Great Rift Valley to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Among the experiences that await you today is a cultural immersion treat. You will tour the Masai community’s homesteads, known as enkangs. In terms of wildlife, the natural ring of Ngorongoro Crater, a 2,000-foot-deep crater, is home to an interesting mix of Big 5 species and birds. This includes flamingoes. Later in the day, you’ll check into Ngorongoro Crater Lodge, a highly opulent hotel with a garden where elephants frequently roam. The lodge’s location on the rim of Ngorongoro crater provides unrivalled vistas that will make you feel 10 days younger.

Meals: (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner).

Day 5: Game Drive in Ngorongoro Crater

Descend into the Ngorongoro Crater and discover a natural wildlife paradise teeming with elephants, zebras, gazelles, wildebeests, buffalos, and rhinos. They are drawn to the crater bottom because of the availability of fresh grass and natural springs filled with mineral-rich water. One of the most intriguing aspects of this adventure is driving down the densely forested crater walls to the crater floor. You’ll feel as if you’ve entered a lost planet with nonstop animal action. In terms of size, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area is almost 8000 kilometres square. This vast expanse includes a couple of volcanic calderas and rising volcanic peaks, some of which are still active. If you’ve ever wanted to see a lava lake hiss, steam, and bubble away, this is the spot for you. Monkeys swing and bright birds fly across the tangled trees. In the evening, you will visit a Maasai hamlet to experience their beautiful cultural customs and nomadic lifestyle.

Meals: (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner).

Day 6: Transfer to Serengeti National Park

After leaving the Ngorongoro Crater Lodge, go to the Serengeti, which is essentially a smaller, more compact version of Africa. Asilia Dunia, a permanent tented camp in the well-known Moru Kopjes and Serenora regions of the central Serengeti, is where you will be checked in. This region provides excellent year-round game viewing. Before heading back to the lodge for dinner, eat lunch and take a game drive in the evening, which will be capped off with a sundowner cocktail.

Meals: (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner).

Day 7: Game Drives in Serengeti National Park

As you drive through the park, you will get a strong picture of the African wildness. It can take several hours of driving over the mesmerising enormity without seeing anything but a few topi on a hill or hyenas looking for leftovers before you find yourself in the midst of a massive herd of around 5,000 wildebeest. Before long, you’ll notice lions and cheetahs eating on a fresh kill. Other large mammals seen include Thomson’s gazelles, impala, giraffe, warthog, eland, dik dik, waterbuck, bushbuck, and a variety of birds. The famous yearly migration, in which large herds of zebras and wildebeest make their way towards Kenya’s Masai Mara, can be seen if you schedule your trip during early July or November–December.

Meals: (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner).

Day 8: Return to Arusha – Departure

After a leisurely breakfast, we will transport you to the adjacent airfield for a short flight to Arusha, where you will spend a few hours relaxing at the Legendary Lodge before being transferred to Kilimanjaro airport for your departure flight.
