itinerary Overview

Explore the wild beauty of Tanzania on a safari that takes you through three of its most iconic destinations. Start in Tarangire National Park, famous for its ancient baobab trees, sweeping landscapes, and large elephant herds. Then head to the world-renowned Serengeti National Park, where vast plains are home to the Great Migration and Africa’s top predators, including lions, cheetahs, and leopards. Your journey continues to the awe-inspiring Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the best places in Africa to see the Big Five—lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino. Each park offers unique ecosystems, diverse wildlife, and breathtaking scenery that showcases Tanzania’s natural wonders. Along the way, expert guides will lead thrilling game drives designed to maximize your wildlife encounters. This safari is ideal for travelers seeking adventure, photography opportunities, or simply a deeper connection with nature. Get ready for an experience filled with unforgettable moments and lifelong memories.

Your day begins with a hotel pickup and a warm welcome from your safari guide before setting off on a scenic two-hour drive to Tarangire National Park. Famous for its ancient baobab trees and Tanzania’s highest concentration of elephants, the park offers stunning landscapes and rich wildlife viewing. You'll enjoy a thrilling game drive, spotting animals like giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, and possibly even lions or leopards. Lunch will be served at the Tarangire River picnic site, where you can relax with views of the river—just keep an eye out for playful monkeys and curious baboons.
