STAGES OF YOUR TRIP
CONTACT AN ADVISOR
Welcome on arrival at Kilimanjaro airport and transfer to the lodge located close to the airport.
Free dinner and overnight stay at the lodge.
Breakfast at the lodge. Departure for Manyara 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 shy 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 large numbers of water birds. The Manyara Park sometimes offers a rare sight: lions perched, sometimes very high, in the umbrella acacias. Will you be lucky enough to catch a glimpse?
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)
Dinner and overnight at Ngorongoro Forest Tented Lodge (or equivalent)
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.
An 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.
Dinner and overnight at Ndutu Lodge in Ndutu from June to November
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, the park offers a breathtaking array of landscapes: the grassy savannah of the endless plains to the south, the hilly woodlands to the west, the Kopjes region (a granite formation) to the east and the shrub savannah to the north.
The Serengeti is so large that you may be the only one to witness the hunting of cheetahs, 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 based on ecotourism. Tanzania has established protection policies and specific taxation for tourist activities.
Afternoon stopover in the Olduvaï region, with the possibility of visiting a Masai village (optional, payable locally).
Dinner and overnight at Ngorongoro Forest Tented Lodge
After breakfast, departure for the Tarangire region.
Day’s safari in the Tarangire National Park considered one of the country’s fine 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. The 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.
Dinner and overnight at Ambureni Coffee Lodge (or equivalent)
After breakfast at the lodge, you will spend a free morning in the town of Arusha to be arranged locally.
Lunch not included.
After lunch, departure for Kilimanjaro airport for your international flight or flight to Zanzibar for the extension.
