6 Days Tanzania Luxury Safari

DAY 1: ARUSHA – TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK

In the morning, you will be welcomed by your guide, and after an approximately 2-hour drive, you will reach the Tarangire National Park. As you enter the park, your guide will open the roof for a better viewing experience. Tarangire is home to the largest elephant herds in the north of Tanzania. Giraffes, buffaloes, lions, zebras, wildebeests, and various antelopes and gazelles, can also be spotted here. The landscape comprises seasonal marshes and a seemingly endless tree savannah with its mighty baobab trees. After extensive game drives in the park, we make a short journey from the park to our particular wilderness lodge.

Dinner and overnight at Serena Safari Lodge: Full board

DAY 2: TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK – KARATU

After a hearty breakfast, you will head out on another game drive in the Tarangire National Park. During the dry season between June and October, the Tarangire River is the only permanent water source, and the wildlife tends to concentrate in its vicinity. You will stop at one of the picnic spots for lunch. In the afternoon, you leave this beautiful park behind. Passing through the multi-cultural town of Mto wa Mbu, the higher lands are soon reached, and beautiful views of the Masai Plains and the Lake Manyara open up before you. After the obligatory photo stop, you will make your way to the vegetation-rich crater highlands. We return to our luxury lodge for the night.

Dinner and overnight at Sopa Lodge: Full board.

DAY 3: KARATU – NGORONGORO CRATER – SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK

Today you will drive into the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and down into the Ngorongoro Crater. Grass steppes and acacia forests are home to almost all the animals found in the East African savannah. In only a few hours, you have the chance of spotting the “Big Five” (lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino and leopard). After extensive game viewing and a picnic in the crater, you will leave the highlands of Ngorongoro in the afternoon and continue to the Serengeti. You will soon see the seemingly endless plains of the southern Serengeti and finally reach the Seronera Valley in the central Serengeti. The stunning Sopa Lodge will be your home for the next three nights.

Breakfast; Lunch; Dinner

DAY 4 – 5: SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK

These two days are dedicated to game viewing in the Serengeti National Park. Your guide will take you to the best spots to observe the wildlife. You can see elephants, buffaloes, lions, cheetahs, hyenas, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, topi, Grant’s and Thomson’s gazelles and many more in this large national park. Especially in the Seronera Valley, you will be able to experience fantastic game viewing all year round. Together with the Masai Mara in Kenya, the Serengeti is also home to the largest animal migration on the planet. You will stay at the Serengeti Serena Lodge.

Breakfast; Lunch; Dinner

DAY 6: SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK – ARUSHA

If time allows, you will head out on a last game drive in the early morning. After a hearty breakfast at the lodge, your guide will take you to the airstrip.
