Itinerary

Upon arrival at the airport, you will be warmly welcomed by your professional safari guide and transferred to your accommodation in Arusha town. This transfer gives you time to relax and unwind after your journey, settle into your comfortable lodge or hotel, and enjoy the facilities. Take the opportunity to rest, freshen up, and perhaps explore a little of Arusha town. This ensures you start your safari adventure the next day feeling refreshed and ready to experience the incredible wildlife and landscapes of Tanzania.

After breakfast, your safari begins with a scenic drive from Arusha to the Ndutu Area, passing through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Enjoy an en-route game drive as the landscape opens into vast plains, famous for the great migration and calving season. Upon arrival in Ndutu, begin game viewing before continuing to your accommodation for dinner and an overnight stay.

Enjoy a full-day game drive in the Ndutu area, exploring its open plains and seasonal lakes. This region is renowned for the great migration and calving season, attracting large herds of wildebeest and zebras, as well as predators such as lions, cheetahs, and hyenas. With a picnic lunch in the bush, spend the day tracking wildlife.

Enjoy an en-route game drive from the Ndutu area to the Ngorongoro Highlands, spotting wildlife as you travel through changing landscapes. The journey offers scenic views of open plains giving way to cooler highland terrain before arriving at your lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.

After an early breakfast, descend into the Ngorongoro Crater. While the elusive black rhino is the hardest to spot, the crater floor provides excellent opportunities to see a wide variety of wildlife. After a morning game drive, enjoy lunch before ascending the crater. You will then pack up and transfer back to Arusha for drop-off at the airport, concluding your safari.
