Day 1 & 2: Serengeti National Park.
-
The name Serengeti translates to “endless plains” in the Maasai language. The park is undoubtedly one of the world’s most celebrated wilderness areas and is an ongoing source of inspiration to writers, filmmakers, and photographers.
-
For animal lovers, in the Serengeti, it is normal to spot four of the five big five animals which are lions, leopards, buffaloes, and elephants.
-
The savannah of the Serengeti is also famous for the annual wildebeest migration where about a million of them trek across the beautiful landscape in search of fresh water and grass. It’s easy to track this migration, starting in the south(Ndutu region) from December through March before working its way through the Grumeti River (Western Serengeti) and up to the north from July to October. The spectacular Serengeti is a beautiful year-round destination and you don’t necessarily need to follow the migration to enjoy your trip it may sometimes be more captivating to avoid crowds for a more exclusive experience.
-
On day 2 you will wind up your day by exiting The Serengeti and heading towards the Ngorongoro highlands where you shall be accommodated for the night in preparation for your descent into the Crater
Day 3: Ngorongoro Crater.
-
Ngorongoro Conservation Area is in northern Tanzania. It’s home to the vast, volcanic Ngorongoro Crater and hosts the “big 5” game (elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo, rhino). Huge herds of wildebeests and zebras traverse its plains during their annual migration.
-
Early in the morning after breakfast, proceed directly to the Crater floor for a full-day crater tour (Hot lunch included).
-
The Ngorongoro crater is one of the few places in Tanzania where you are likely to see the endangered black rhino as a small population of them reside in this protected area. Many Flamingoes are also attracted to the soda waters of Lake Magadi.
-
The crater is about 600 meters deep and has a floor area of about 260 square kilometers thereby making it the largest dormant caldera in the world.
-
The most ideal time to visit Ngorongoro is from June to October during the dry season since it becomes easier to spot many animals during this season because there is less greenery.
-
After the whole day of the game drive, we will head back to Arusha, we will drop you off at your accommodation or the Airport we can be flexible with time depending on your flight schedule.
