Description

I propose a wildlife safari in the Tarangire and Serengeti National Parks and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area.

In the heart of these famous Tanzanian National Parks, you'll have the opportunity to admire exceptional landscapes, as well as numerous wild animals such as lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, buffaloes, rhinoceroses, hippopotamuses and many more.

I also offer shorter safaris with Tarangire and Ngorongoro "only" on the program, or Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It is also possible to add a day to visit a Masai village.

Program

D1: Tarangire National Park.
We pick you up at your hotel in Arusha after breakfast and drive about 2 hours and a half to the park entrance.
Also known as the home of the elephants, Tarangire National Park is named after the river that runs through it. It is a beautiful place where it is very easy to see elephants, giraffes, zebras and other herbivores.
In the same day, you have the opportunity to see a variety of landscapes: forest, plain, savannah, bush, as well as the famous baobabs and acacias.

D2 to D4: Serengeti National Park.
The drive to the entrance of the park takes about 3 hours.
You have the opportunity to discover the Serengeti National Park on the afternoon of the second day, the whole day of the third day and the morning of the fourth day, not forgetting the two nights you will spend in the heart of the park.
The Serengeti National Park is the second largest game park in Africa with 4 million animals and almost 15000km².
Known for the wildebeest migration to the Masaï Mara in Kenya, it is also renowned for the quality of the animals encountered: giraffes, hippos, as well as the famous Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhinoceros).
On the afternoon of the fourth day, we drive about 3 hours to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and spend the night there in order to dive into the crater on the morning of the fifth day.

D5: Ngorongoro Conservation Area.
Early in the morning you descend into the crater to discover the unique landscape of Ngorongoro.
With an area of 16 by 20 kilometres, it is the undisputed jewel of this region and has a very high density of animals.
Indeed, in this small area, there are 25000 large mammals, including 10000 buffaloes, 7000 wildebeest, 4000 zebras, 3000 gazelles, 150 hippos, 50 lions, 30 elephants, 20 rhinos and other warthogs, jackals, hyenas, etc., not to mention thousands of birds and, if you are very lucky, a few cheetahs.
Ngorongoro has the second largest caldera in the world. Narrow winding paths lead to the crater floor. You will be enchanted by the beauty of the landscape and the special atmosphere.
Return to your hotel in Arusha at the end of the day.
