Tour Plan

Day 1: Arusha → Serengeti National Park

Your adventure begins with an early morning pickup from Arusha. Enjoy a scenic drive through the Ngorongoro highlands as you make your way toward the world-famous Serengeti National Park.

Arrive in time for an afternoon game drive, exploring the park’s vast savannah plains and spotting wildlife such as:

  • Lions

  • Elephants

  • Leopards (with luck)

  • Zebras, giraffes, buffaloes

  • Hundreds of bird species

As the sun sets over the Serengeti, continue to your mid-range lodge or camp for dinner and overnight.

Main Destination: Serengeti National Park

Day 2: Serengeti Sunrise Game Drive → Ngorongoro

Start the day with a sunrise game drive, the best time to witness predator activity as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas take advantage of the cool morning hours. The early light also offers excellent photographic opportunities.

Continue exploring different habitats—from rocky kopjes to acacia-dotted plains—before beginning your scenic journey toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area.

Arrive at your lodge on the crater rim in time for dinner and enjoy panoramic views of the world’s largest unbroken caldera.

Day 3: Ngorongoro Crater Game Drive → Return to Arusha

After breakfast, descend 600 meters into the Ngorongoro Crater, one of Africa’s most spectacular wildlife destinations.

Inside the crater, you may encounter:

  • The Big Five (lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, black rhino)

  • Spotted hyenas and jackals

  • Hippos wallowing in the pools

  • Flamingos and diverse birdlife

  • Resident zebras and wildebeests grazing across the plains

Enjoy a picnic lunch by the hippo pool, then continue your game drive before ascending the crater walls in the afternoon. Drive back to Arusha where your safari concludes.
