TOUR DURATION: 4 NIGHTS
h Lake Manyara: 1 night
h Serengeti: 2 nights
h Ngorongoro: 1 night
DAY 1 h On arrival transfer to
nearby Arusha for lunch and
time to freshen up, then board
your 4x4 vehicle for the drive to
Lake Manyara, enjoying the first
glimpse of Tanzania as you go.
Arrive at the Manyara Wildlife
Safari Camp late afternoon – a
simple, basic but comfortable
camp with ten canvas tented
chalets and 16 self-contained
cottages. Settle in to your room
then enjoy dinner and overnight.
DAY 2 h This morning sees your
first game drive of the safari in
Lake Manyara National Park,
home to hippos, elephants,
flamingos, plains game and the
famous tree-climbing lions that
reside here. The landscape is a
mixture of dense forest, small
open plains and lush water-side
grasses, a feast for herbivores
such as buffalo. Return to the
hotel for lunch, then begin the
long drive north to the world
renowned Serengeti National
Park, arriving in time for dinner
and overnight at Seronera Wildlife
Lodge – one of the first to be built
in the park and so occupying a
prime position amongst the
rocky outcrops. Rooms are
basic but comfortable.
DAY 3 h A spectacular full day
game drive with lunch in the
Serengeti today, seeking out the
big cats, rhino, buffalo, giraffe
and many others that habituate
the vast open plains of this huge
park which borders the Maasai
Mara in its northeast corner. The
sheer scale and seemingly endless
horizon in this part of Africa is
simply spellbinding. Dinner and
overnight at the lodge.
DAY 4 h After breakfast, return
south out of the park for a
morning visit to the archaeological
marvel of Olduvai Gorge, the
discovery site of some of the
earliest ever humanoid remains.
Continue to Ngorongoro Crater,
one of nature’s true wonders – its
collapsed volcanic crater is 12
miles in diameter and 2000 feet
deep. The fertile soil and lake
attract a huge range of wildlife,
and your afternoon crater tour will
seek to uncover them amongst the
floor’s forests, grasses and plains.
Dinner and overnight is spent
at Ngorongoro Wildlife Lodge,
magnificently sited on the rim
of the crater, where all 75 rooms
offer stunning views.
DAY 5 h This morning return to
Arusha for lunch and some time
to refresh yourself before your
onward journey.
