Expedition Itinerary: Deeper Exploration, Breathtaking Moments

Day 1: Tarangire's Elephant Kingdom

Your safari begins with a morning pick-up in Arusha. After a scenic drive, you'll arrive at Tarangire National Park, renowned for its massive elephant herds and iconic baobab trees. Your first game drive will immerse you in the raw beauty of the African savannah as you search for lions, giraffes, and various bird species. In the late afternoon, you'll transfer to your chosen accommodation near the park.

Day 2: The Serengeti's Grand Reveal

After breakfast, you'll journey towards the world-famous Serengeti National Park. The drive itself is a game-viewing opportunity as you cross the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Upon arrival, you'll begin your first thrilling game drive in the Serengeti, a land of endless plains, renowned for its diverse predators and the spectacular Great Migration (seasonal). You will spend the night at your camp or lodge in the heart of the park.

Day 3: Full-Day Cat Tracking in the Serengeti

This day is dedicated to the pursuit of the Serengeti's elusive and magnificent predators. With no need to rush, you'll have the flexibility to follow a cheetah hunt, observe a lion pride, or watch the incredible wildlife that makes this region so famous. You'll spend the entire day searching for the Big Five and other iconic African wildlife before returning to your accommodation for the night.

Day 4: Following the Great Migration

Today, we adapt to nature's schedule. Your guide will use their expert knowledge to move to a different part of the Serengeti—north or south—to track the ongoing Great Migration. This extended day allows us to follow the colossal herds of wildebeest and zebras, putting you right in the middle of one of the planet's most spectacular wildlife events. You will spend a final night camping in the Serengeti.

Day 5: The Journey to Ngorongoro Crater's Edge via Olduvai Gorge

After a final morning game drive in the Serengeti, you will begin your scenic drive to the Ngorongoro Crater. On the way, you'll make a stop at the famous Olduvai Gorge, a key paleoanthropological site, to learn about early human history. You will then drive to your campsite on the crater's rim, where you'll get a spectacular view of the caldera.

Day 6: Ngorongoro's Grand Finale & Return to Arusha

The final day is your spectacular finale. You'll descend into the majestic Ngorongoro Crater, a unique and self-contained ecosystem. With an unmatched concentration of wildlife, this is your best chance to spot the Big Five in a single game drive. After a final picnic lunch, you will begin your drive back to Arusha, your memory card full and your soul enriched by an unforgettable expedition.
