Location
This safari will take place in Tarangire and Serengeti National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, and Olduvai Gorge.
Tarangire National Park
The park has thousands of animals including wildebeests, zebras, elands, elephants, buffaloes, hartebeests, and more animals that migrate from the Maasai steppe to the Tarangire River. Not surprisingly, lions and other predators find the place attractive.
Serengeti National Park
It is Tanzania’s oldest and most popular national park. The Serengeti is famed for its annual migration when some six million hooves pound the open plains. More than 200,000 zebras and 300,000 Thomson’s gazelles join the wildebeest’s trek for fresh grazing.
Yet even when the migration is quiet, the Serengeti offers arguably the most scintillating game-viewing in Africa with great herds of buffaloes, smaller groups of elephants and giraffes, and thousands upon thousands of elands, topis, kongonis, impalas, and Grant’s gazelles.
Olduvai Gorge
Olduvai Gorge provides evidence of the earliest signs of mankind where hominid footprints are preserved in volcanic rocks 3,600,000 years old.
Ngorongoro Crater
Ngorongoro Crater is the world's largest caldera measuring 600 meters in depth and covering 250 square kilometers in area. The collapsed volcano is home to a large concentration of wildlife including the lion, rhino, hippo, hyena, and elephant.
