Program
Day 1: Arusha - Tarangire National Park
You will depart from Arusha after breakfast for the approximately two-hour drive to Tarangire National Park. Along the way, you will pass bustling Masai villages and the vast, open plains that have become synonymous with images of Africa. Once you have entered Tarangire, you will begin your game drive across a rich vista of endless golden savannah that surrounds the Tarangire River.
Driving through the park, you will also have the opportunity to see lions, leopards, cape buffalo, and a huge variety of antelopes. If you are particularly lucky, you might even see endangered animals such as the greater kudu or the fringe-eared oryx. After your game drive, you will return to your lodge for dinner and overnight.
Day 2: Ngorongoro Crater - Arusha
After breakfast, you will depart for Ngorongoro Crater; sometimes considered as the eighth wonder of the world. From the comfort of your open-top vehicle, you will be able to observe and photograph some of Africa's most recognizable faces. After the thrills and excitement of the day, you will have a picnic lunch by the park's famous hippo pool. Thereafter, you will drive back to Arusha.
Location
The safari will take place in Tanzania.
Tarangire National Park
This is the home to Tanzania’s largest elephant population. As vast herds of wildebeest and zebra move to the river to replenish, the park’s lions, leopards, and hyenas capitalize on a dynamic display of nature’s cruel beauty.
Tarangire River
The river itself runs throughout the year and is a vital source of water for the animals of the region during the dry season. Lined with acacia and Baobab trees, the river is regularly visited by the park's large elephant population as well as other herbivores such as zebras and antelopes.
Ngorongoro Conservation Area
This is where cape buffalo and rhinoceros can be spotted amid the caldera’s verdant plains. Home to over 120 species of mammal including the fabled Big Five, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area is one of the most sought-after safari destinations in the world. It is a particularly good place to see the endangered black rhinoceros enjoying a lonely meal out on the grass plains, as well as a place to see large numbers of hippopotamuses enjoying the cool water.
