For six days safari, we recommend a visit to the Tarangire National Park, Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater.
DAY 1. TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK.
Starting at your accommodation around 8:00 am, you will receive a short briefing about the safari and then depart to the National Park. The Tarangire National Park is located South of Lake Manyara. The river from which the park takes its name is the primary source of water for the local wildlife, making it the perfect place to spot large concentration of animals like elephants (largest concentration in the country), wildebeests and zebras. Big cats are also frequent in the dry season, and the abundance of baobab trees will surely make it possible for you to collect amazing African postcards. Lunch will take place at a picnic place overlooking the Tarangire river, and after more game viewing in the park we will be drive to your accommodation.

DAY 3. SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK.
This day tour will have an early start, and for a very good reason. Probably the most famous African National Park in the world, the Serengeti covers a massive area and hosts a rich and complex ecosystem with a noticeable biodiversity. 1.5 million wildebeests, the biggest population of big mammals that still roam the planet, make their migration through the park every year, joined by hundreds of thousands of zebras and gazelles, and giraffes, impalas, warthogs and hippos live permanently in its lands, as well as carnivores as jackals, hyenas, servals and mongooses; however the most popular animals among visitors, commonly known as the Big Five, are lions, African leopards, African bush elephants, Eastern black rhinoceros and Cape buffaloes. And this is just the beginning. After a picnic lunch and some more game viewing, return to your accommodation for overnight.

DAY 6. NGORONGORO CRATER
Start early in the day to visit the Ngorongoro Crater, the world’s largest inactive, intact and unfilled volcanic caldera, formed when a huge volcano exploded and collapsed on itself. In the present days, however, far from being a destructive source of hot lava, it’s actually a natural paradise considered one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa, home to nearly 25 000 large animals, including black rhinoceros, buffaloes, hippos and big cats. The park is also classed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The tour will stop for lunch at a picnic place near a lake, and continue in the afternoon. Return to Arusha will be scheduled for around 6pm, unless circumstances demand changes.
