STAGES OF YOUR TRIP
CONTACT AN ADVISOR
Welcome on arrival at Kilimanjaro airport and transfer to the lodge located close to the airport.
Dinner and overnight at the lodge
Breakfast at the lodge. Depart forManyara Park.
From the main entrance, the road winds its way through lush jungle, where groups of baboons, a hundred strong, bustle along the path, blue monkeys camouflage themselves in the trees and timid harnessed guibs move cautiously between the light and shade of the undergrowth. The silver-cheeked hornbills amaze with their enormous helmets, as if they were due to go to war in the next hour.
All-day game drive and picnic lunch under the umbrella acacias.
This park, in the Rift Valley, has an interesting diversity of wildlife to observe: elephants, buffalo, zebra, wildebeest, giraffe, impala and many others. The hippo pond attracts a large number of aquatic birds. The Manyara Park sometimes offers a rare sight: lions perched, sometimes very high, in the umbrella acacias. Will you be so lucky as to catch a glimpse of them perched?
At the end of the day, you will drive to the village of Mto Wa Mbu, if you ask your driver, you can visit the village. ( > see the video of this village)
Breakfast at the lodge. Depart for the Ngorongoro Crater.
This day will be devoted to discovering this famous crater, considered to be the 8th Wonder of the World ( > see the video of this place).
The crater is a vast caldera 20 km in diameter. At its heart lies an incredibly rich fauna, perfectly protected by a 600-metre-high rampart.
Exceptional moment : this is one of the only places in Tanzania where you can see the “Big Five”: elephant, lion, rhino, leopard and buffalo.
More than 500 species of birds, both resident and migratory, can be seen in the crater. Lake Magadi, with its brackish waters, is often visited by pink flamingos. Hippos bask in the freshwater ponds, while buffalo bathe in the mud.
Depart for the safari in the Serengeti just after breakfast.
From December to March the programme is adapted to be as close as possible to the migration:
Day 04: Safari in Ndutu and overnight at Ndutu Wildlands Camp (or equivalent)
Day 05: Safari in the Serengeti and overnight at Mbalageti Lodge (or equivalent)
The Serengeti is the country’s second largest national park (14,763 km2). Famous for the annual migration of thousands of wildebeest, this park offers the viewer grandiose landscapes: the grassy savannah of the endless plains to the south, the wooded and undulating regions to the west, the Kopjes region (granite formation) to the east and the shrub savannah to the north.
In these vast plains with their many permanent waterholes, the herds of herbivores followed by their predators offer an impressive spectacle. The Serengeti is so large that you may be the only ones to witness the hunt led by the cheetah, whose favourite prey is Thomson’s gazelle.
After breakfast, departure for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, taking a final game drive in the Serengeti.
This profusion of animals in the northern parks has generated a local economy focused on ecotourism. Tanzania has established protection policies and specific taxation of tourist activities.
Afternoon stopover in the Olduvaï region, with the possibility of visiting a Masai village (optional, payable locally) (> see video)
After breakfast, departure for the Tarangire region.
Day’s safari in the Tarangire National Park considered one of the country’s beautiful wildlife refuges.
Covering an area of 2850 km², it is renowned for its exceptional concentrations of animals between August and January. The park is home to species that are harder to locate and often impossible to find in other parks in northern Tanzania, such as: the Gerenuk, lesser kudu, Oryx beisa, eland and the most sought-after antelope, greater kudu.
The park is crossed by a river that never runs dry in some places, the Tarangire River. This park has the highest concentration of baobabs in the world, which dot the landscape. Elephants, of which there are many, cut into the bark of these mythical trees to quench their thirst, as they are veritable water pumps.
In the early afternoon, departure for your accommodation.
After breakfast, you’ll have a free morning in Arusha and then drive to Arusha airport for your flight to Zanzibar.
Lunch on your own
ARUSHA – ZANZIBAR FLIGHT: 12.30 – 2pm

Passport valid for 6 months after the date of return.
For French nationals, a visa is compulsory. It can be obtained on arrival at the airport. You will be asked to pay $50 in cash (USD banknotes dated after 2006). Waiting times at the airport for visas can be long; expect to wait between 2 hours and 2.5 hours. Visas can also be obtained online, but please allow 2 to 3 weeks for processing.

+1h in summer, +2h in winter compared with France.
The yellow fever vaccine was reinstated in early 2008. You should allow more than 14 days before your departure. Don’t forget to take your international vaccination certificate with you, as customs officials may ask for it when you enter Tanzania or Zanzibar.
Vaccinations not compulsory but recommended: against typhoid, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, DTP and in certain cases against meningitis A and C, and against rabies (check with your doctor).
Preventive treatment against malaria is essential. Remember to take mosquito repellent with you.
English and Swahili are the two official languages. There are also many African dialects, reflecting the country’s tribal diversity.
Tanzanian shilling: 1€=2600 TSH (January 2019)
For US dollars, remember to take notes issued after 2006 !!!
Since the recent ban on bureaux de change in Tanzania, you can only withdraw Tanzanian shillings from ATMs in Arusha, Dar es Salaam and Zanzibar. However, the euro and, more particularly, the US dollar are widely used and may suffice to pay for all your purchases in Tanzania (USD notes dating from after 2006). But be sure to carry small denominations;
If you wish to pay for certain purchases by credit card, you should be aware that additional credit card payment charges will be applied (approximately 4 to 6%).
The current is 230V. The plug is English; an adaptor is recommended.
Apart from the Kilimanjaro ascent, which requires special equipment, the weather is relatively warm all year round. You should, however, bring a jumper and windbreaker for nights spent near the crater or in a bivouac, as well as for stays in July and August, which can be cooler months. It is advisable to wear light trousers in the parks to ensure peaceful cohabitation with certain insects.
You’ll also need light walking shoes, a hat, sun cream, a torch, binoculars and batteries for your camera. Cameras with zoom lenses can be hired.
Please note that for domestic flights, only soft luggage, strictly limited to 15kg, is allowed (including hand luggage)!
It is common practice to tip people who accompany or assist you on your journey. To take your bag to your room, the porter will expect a small tip of TSH 500 (around €30), and the driver guide will expect $20 per day on safari.

Réservation annulation, report, 2 ans de patience due au Covid ; mais Elodie est inoxydable et d'un humour communicatif. Préparation du programme, devis , modification tout est parfait. Préférer le... read more contact direct avec Hors Pistes plutôt que de passer par un tour opérateur.
Les guides chauffeurs sont aux petits soins et adorables . Le notre Khalid parfaitement francophone d'une compétence étonnante dans son domaine , sans compter son espièglerie. Que de fou rires pendant les 8j de safari sur 1500km de pistes. Cerise sur le gateau, pour les fous des animaux que nous sommes , notre passion pour les oiseaux : il les connaît tous. Cela doublait presque l'intérêt . A préciser éventuellement dans votre demande .
Voir Manyara lac Natron Serengeti Ngorongoro Tarangire dans cet ordre a beaucoup de sens (une progression). S'il fallait en enlever c'est plutôt Tarangire nettement moins peuplé en animaux... mais très beau. S'il fallait en ajouter : le Lac Natron qui n'est plus vraiment safari , mais indispensable ( pour nous ) pour découvrir et rencontrer les Massaîs. A ce sujet la vraie rencontre avec tous les tanzaniens peut être hors norme pour peu que l'on prenne le temps d'aller vers eux. Le retour est étonnant tant la chaleur leur est naturelle. Y penser en permanence .
A ce propos 2 guides Massaîs francophones (visite village et lac Natron) ont permis d'aller assez loin dans l'appréhension de la vie en tanzanie et de répondre inversement à leur grande curiosité.
Nous avons 70 ans et et sommes plutôt des globetrotters. Pas de satisfaction complète sans l'approche sur la connaissance du pays et de ses populations . La dessus quelques simples lectures et surtout les larges connaissances de notre guide et c'était la perfection... encore faut il ne pas venir en simple consommateur. Dans ce sens , 20 jours de trek en autonomie au Népal , également au Sahara, la Patagonie , la Laponie et d'autres nous permettent de classer la Tanzanie dans un top. Nous pensons , nous qui sommes des fêlés des animaux , que ce voyage pourrait être une visite tendance zoo en voiture... les paysages muets en plus . A notre avis y penser au départ.
Grande réussite donc ce safari animalier et tout autant dans la rencontre humaine.
Merci Elodie, merci Khalid, merci Hors Pistes.
nous avons voyagé avec hors piste kenya en octobre 2021, 3 adultes un ado
très beau voyage, très beaux hôtels,
un peu frustré, car on nous avait dit que... read more le guide était a notre disposition, il n'a jamais voulu sortir du programme, nous voulions voir un autre village massai,il a refusé en nous disant que c'était interdit,
il a également refusé de s’arrêter pour visiter un marché, idem pour se balader dans une ville
suite a mon mail, aucune réponse de hors piste, je pense que l'avis de leurs clients , ils s'en moquent
donc attention,il faut tout préciser sur le programme
sinon, pas de regrets, juste frustrés
Un voyage inoubliable à la hauteur de nos attentes. L’organisation a été parfaite, s’est adaptée en fonction du climat, les lodges tous différents mais si agréables et une mention spéciale... read more à Ndutu et serengeti wildcamp.
Notre guide Junga était génial, très attentionné, beaucoup de connaissances sur les animaux et son pays. Enfin l’accueil des tanzaniens est très chaleureux
Asante
