ITINERARY:
DAY 1:
We’ll pick you up from your accommodation in Zanzibar in the early morning and drive you to the airport for your flight to Arusha.
From there we’ll drive you to Tarangire National Park for a picnic lunch.
After lunch, we’ll explore the beautiful area stretching south-east of Lake Manyara around the Tarangire River. This region has one of the highest concentrations of wildlife in the whole country. Large herds of zebra, wildebeest, hartebeest, and especially elephants are to be found here.
In the afternoon we’ll take you for a game drive in Tarangire National Park and later bring you back to your lodge for dinner.
DAY 2:
After an early breakfast, we’ll drive to Ngorongoro Crater for spectacular scenery and game viewing in what has been described as the “eighth wonder of the world.”
A collapsed volcano, Ngorongoro is an incredible natural amphitheater, 25 km across and teeming with all the African big game: the rare black rhino, lion, elephant, cheetah, and great herds of buffalo, antelope, and wildebeest. We’ll descend over 600 meters (2,000 feet) to the floor of the crater for a tour.
We’ll also explore the forest areas that are inhabited by monkeys and elephants, the lake area where you may see flamingos, and the open savannah where lions hunt for food.
Later in the evening, we’ll drive to Karatu for dinner and our overnight stay.
