Itinerary
Day 1: Arusha > Tarangire
From Arusha, depart early and drive to Tarangire National Park. During the dry season (June to September) thousands of animals including elephant, buffalo, giraffe, wildebeest, kudu, and the rarely seen oryx migrate from the dry Maasai steppe to the Tarangire River in search of water. Spend the day enjoying game drives in the area, with picnic lunch included. Overnight at a tented camp in Tarangire.

Enjoy a day at leisure. You can go on morning game drive in Tarangire or relax at your accommodation. Overnight at a lodge.
Day 3: Tarangire > Karatu / Ngorongoro
An early start to enjoy a full morning and picnic lunch in the Ngorongoro Crater, often seeing four of the big five with ease! From the crater drive to the Serengeti. Stay a total of three nights in the Serengeti at one or two wilderness camp properties (depending on the season).

You will continue your journey to Serengeti National Park today.Day 5 & 6: Serengeti National Park
Spend your next few days exploring the Serengeti – unequalled for its beauty and home to more than three million large mammals spread over the vast endless plains. It is here, at certain times of the year, that we may encounter the breathtaking spectacle of the annual wildebeest migration, where one and a quarter million wildebeest trek in columns of up to 40 km long in search of grazing, drawing with them their predators and numerous other species of game.NB: Balloon safari optional – pricing upon request.
