Day 1

Welcome to Tanzania – get ready for a wildlife adventure like no other!

We are thrilled you’ve made the journey to adventure with us in Tanzania, home to the Serengeti and a variety of big game animals. Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you'll be met by your guide and transferred to your first lodging in Moshi. Along the way, enjoy views of the spectacular Mount Kilimanjaro, which rises from the clouds high above the town. Upon arrival in Moshi, you’ll have the rest of the day and night to get settled and enjoy the lodge. Moshi is known as the gateway to Kilimanjaro National Park, which features a variety of landscapes and is home to leopards, elephants, and many more majestic creatures. It’s also known for its coffee production, boasting vast plantations throughout the area. Relax at the lodge and soak in the stunning backdrop.

Day 2

Travel to Lake Manyara National Park and see lions, elephants, and more on a game drive

Rise and shine to a glorious day in Tanzania! Our adventures begin after breakfast with a journey from Moshi to Lake Manyara National Park. This beautiful area is known for its tree climbing lions and large herds of elephants. While the park is small in comparison to the others in the country, it’s home to a surprising array of biodiversity, featuring acacia woodlands, forests, baobab strewn cliffs, algae-streaked hot springs, swamps, and the lake itself. We’ll take a game drive through the park then head to our lodging in Lake Manyara for the night. Enjoy a delicious meal and rest up for another day of adventure.

Day 3

Visit the world-famous Serengeti and enjoy an afternoon game drive in the park

Good morning, and what a good morning it is! Today, we’ll visit one of the most famous game parks in Africa – the Serengeti. This picture-perfect landscape features endless stretches of savannah-covered plains, sprinkled with rocky outcrops of granite, acacia woodlands, and a network of rivers and streams. This park is home to millions of wildebeests during the migration, along with lions, cheetahs, leopards, hyena, and many other small predators. Our afternoon will feature a game drive to explore the park before heading to our lodging. Tonight, we’ll be sleeping under the stars in the park itself. When we arrive at camp, get settled and enjoy dinner in the vast wilderness of Africa.

Day 4

Head to the Ngorongoro Crater and relax at the immersive lodging

Awake to another great day in Africa and enjoy breakfast as the sun rises over the park. We’ll get an early morning start as we head out to look for big cats before they seek shelter from the midday sun. After our morning safari, we’ll pack up and head to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, where we’ll spend our last night in Africa. The Ngorongoro caldera is the largest unflooded and unbroken caldera in the world, stretching 20 kilometers across and 600 meters deep! This UNESCO site is sure to impress, as it’s home to the Big Five and an array of birds. We’ll check in at our next lodge within the park and enjoy a peaceful night surrounded by natural wonders.

Day 5

Discover the hidden wonders in the Ngorongoro Crater on a game drive before heading to the airport to catch your flight

We only have a few remaining hours in this magnificent area, but the fun isn’t over yet! After breakfast, you’ll descend into the Ngorongoro Crater – a wonderful haven for wildlife. The creator houses almost all of the animals in the area, which makes it a great spot to enjoy the majestic creatures that call this place home. We’ll see rhinos, prides of lions, cheetahs, and much more on our last game drive. After our tour, we’ll head back out of the crater and make our way to the airport. We hope you had a stellar experience and will adventure with us again soon!
