Upon your arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you’ll be greeted by our staff, who will address any questions you may have about your upcoming safari and provide a brief overview of your itinerary. Following this, you’ll be transported to your accommodation in Arusha town.
We depart from Arusha for Tarangire National Park, a stunning expanse of approximately 2,600 square kilometers. This park truly comes alive during the dry season when many migratory wildlife species return to the permanent waters of the Tarangire River. Here, you can witness vast herds of wildebeest, zebras, elephants, eland, and oryx as they gather, staying in Tarangire until the rains arrive and they migrate once again in search of better grazing areas.
After breakfast at the camp or lodge, you’ll be transferred to Kuro Airstrip for your flight to central Serengeti/Seronera. Upon arrival, you’ll be picked up and taken to the lodge for a hot lunch. Later in the afternoon, depart for a game drive that lasts until evening, after which you’ll return to the lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.
After breakfast, you’ll drive to Ngorongoro for a crater tour, complete with a picnic lunch. Descend to the crater floor for an immersive day of exploration. This unique area is home to around 20,000 mammals, including approximately 20 black rhinoceroses, making it the premier location in Tanzania for spotting these incredible creatures. The crater floor also boasts one of the highest densities of carnivores in the world, with lions, cheetahs, hyenas, and jackals frequently observed. With a bit of luck, you may even catch a glimpse of leopards, servals, and bat-eared foxes.
After breakfast, you’ll be transferred to Manyara Airstrip for your scheduled flight to Zanzibar. Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted and transferred to your booked accommodation in Stone Town.
After breakfast, embark on a guided tour of Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Follow in the footsteps of Arab Sultans as you explore fascinating historical sites and navigate the winding labyrinths of the town. Marvel at the iconic Zanzibar doors, renowned for their unique architectural style.
After lunch, head out to the countryside for a tour of the spice plantations. You’ll be greeted by the enticing aromas of spices like nutmeg and cinnamon, steeped in rich history. Following this delightful experience, you’ll be transferred to your beach resort for a three-night stay at Melia Zanzibar.
On day 10, after breakfast, you can relax at the resort until it’s time for your transfer to Zanzibar International Airport for your flight to Dar es Salaam, where you can connect with your international flight back home, or take a direct flight from Zanzibar International Airport. After checking out of your room at 10:30, you can store your luggage at the resort and continue enjoying the resort facilities. When it’s time for your airport transfer, our driver will pick you up at reception and take you to the airport.
