• Meals: Breakfast, lunch, and dinner
• Accommodation: Panorama Camp

Day 3: Tarangire National Park to Serengeti National Park

After breakfast, depart for Serengeti National Park via the beautiful high lying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leaving the highlands behind, you will descend into the heart of wild Africa - the Serengeti National Park-with its endless plain, rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see.

Then heard to the central park area, known as the Seronera area, one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park, featuring the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water sources to this area and therefore attracts wildlife well representative of most of the Serengeti‘s species. Arrival in time for lunch and enjoy an afternoon game drive in Serengeti.

• Distance: 120 kilometers / 2-hour drive
• Meal: Breakfast, lunch, and dinner
• Accommodation: Seronera Campsite

Day 4: Serengeti National Park to Ngorongoro Conservation Area

Late afternoon, you will drive to Ngorongoro Crater via Maasai boma for cultural exchange.

• Distance: 1-hour drive
• Meals: Breakfast, lunch, and dinner
• Accommodation: Simba Campsite

Day 5: Ngorongoro Conservation Area to Arusha

Early in the morning, descend over 600 meters into the crater. The crater is the world’s largest unbroken caldera which hosts varieties of animals including the Black Rhino, elephant, hippos, lions, flamingo, and so many other. Later in the afternoon, drive back to your hotel or drop off at the airport.

The world-renowned parks in the north, around the Serengeti, rightfully earn their fame and especially if you are there to witness the herds of the Great Migration or take a balloon or riding safari across the plains. The escarpment of the Great Rift Valley creates a dramatic volcanic landscape, and some of the most fertile grazing grounds on earth; thus this is home to the largest herds on the planet, and the highest concentration of predators in Africa.

The Ngorongoro Crater is reliably rewarding for wildlife action, although it gets crowded and for this reason Africa Royal Trekking recommends a brief visit, but the wider conservation area is fascinating and very worthwhile as a cultural and historical experience.

This is the land of the Maasai tribe, who are allowed to live and farm within the Ngorongoro Conservation Area in as traditional a manner as is possible for nomadic tribes in the modern world. It is also the site of Olduvai Gorge, where Professor Leakey discovered the earliest known footprints of hominid man. This region is best combined with other northern Tanzanian parks, in a diverse itinerary.

These days all the camps and lodges are linked with a network of bush airstrips. The best camps and lodges, whether permanent or luxury mobile camps, have their own safari vehicles and guides. Where once Africa Royal Trekking used to drive the entire route, these days they recommend driving around Ngorongoro, Tarangire, and Mayara, where the roads are good and parks are accessible, then flying into the more remote regions of the Serengeti.
