7 Day Tanzania Lodge Safari

Day 1:  TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK

In the morning around 6:00 am we collect you from your hotel and drive to Tarangire National Park for a game drive. This park is especially known for the large amount of elephants and giraffes. Animals from the surrounding area congregate along the Tarangire River which winds its way through the park. The park has a large number of baobab trees and is quite scenic. We pause for a box lunch inside the park, then continue with the game drive. In the evening we settle in at our campsite/lodge/tented camp for overnight.

DAY 2: SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK.

The second day, we drive to Serengeti National Park. This drive takes us through Ngorongoro Conservation Area (not through the crater but in the highlands). Once we arrive at the Serengeti, we proceed on a game drive until evening. Relaxation, dinner and overnight will be at lodge/tented camp inside of the Serengeti.

Day 3: SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK

After breakfast, we set out for a full day game drive. The Serengeti is a huge park and we will get the chance to travel a bit further from the camp. We will have a lunch box with us and stop to enjoy and relax before proceeding for more exploration of the park. Late afternoon, we return to the lodge/tented camp for relaxation, dinner and overnight.

DAY 4: SERENGETI TO NGORONGORO CRATER

After breakfast, we set out to explore of the Serengeti and view the wildlife. We continue our game drive while we make our way out of the park back into Ngorongoro Conservation area.The crater is also one of the new 7 natural wonders of Africa; hence we expect you will experience large unbroken caldera in the world.  More than 25000 grazers and carnivores are waiting for you. Overnights are not permitted inside of the crater. All accommodations are outside the crater, most are near the crater rim. This is a cold location since there is some altitude (7,500 ft or 2286m). Even a knit cap and light gloves may feel welcome since it also tends to be windy.
