TOUR PLAN

Day 1: Arusha - Tarangire National Park

You’ll be picked-up from the lodge early in the morning with a boxed lunch in hand to start your journey to Tarangire National Park. After a game drive, you’ll return to the lodge for dinner and your overnight stay.

Tarangire National Park is renowned for its vast elephant herds, the Tarangire River, and diverse landscapes, ranging from seasonal swamps to savannas. Be prepared for the possibility of seeing lions stalking their prey or leopards leisurely observing you from the treetops.

Main Destination:
Tarangire National Park

After breakfast, our safari guide will chauffeur you to Lake Eyasi, where an encounter with the local Hadzabe people awaits. Renowned for their hunting prowess, you’ll have the unique opportunity to join them in a hunting expedition to gain insight into their traditional hunting techniques.

Once your time with the Hadzabe concludes, you’ll be introduced to another fascinating group—the Datoga people, who are known for their exceptional blacksmithing skills. You can also take a leisurely stroll around Lake Eyasi and explore the local villages in the vicinity. Later you’ll be transported back to the lodge for dinner and your overnight stay.

After breakfast, we’ll embark on a journey to Ngorongoro for a game drive within the Ngorongoro Crater. We’ll carry lunch boxes to eat along the way. Dinner and your overnight stay will be at the lodge.

The Ngorongoro Crater is the world’s largest uninterrupted caldera and one of Africa’s natural wonders. With a resident population of approximately 30,000 large mammals—including buffaloes, lions, elephants, cheetahs, and rhinos—and a diverse array of bird species such as flamingos, eagles, and buzzards, you can expect to see a wide variety of wildlife in a short amount of time.

After breakfast, we’ll set out for Lake Manyara National Park with packed lunch boxes in hand. After our game drive in the park, we’ll transfer you to either Arusha or the Kilimanjaro Airport, which will conclude your safari.

Lake Manyara is renowned for its arboreal lions, who are skillful at concealing themselves among the tree branches. A bustling colony of baboons also inhabits the forest, and they may accompany you along the road from the moment you enter the park.
