Full Itinerary

Day 1
LAKE MANYARA

Leave Arusha this morning with a picnic lunch that you’ll enjoy in Lake Manyara National Park, an UNESCO biosphere. This first game drive will introduce you to a great variety of big game from lions to elephants. In the early evening continue up the Rift Valley escarpment to Kirurumu Camp, which is set upon the edge of the Great Rift Valley and enjoys commanding and panoramic views of Lake Manyara and the surrounding area. Dinner and overnight at Kirurumu.

Day 2
LAKE MANYARA

Today you have the option of guided ethno-botanical walks at the top of the Rift escarpment, or you can return to Manyara National Park for another game drive. Mountain biking, hiking, horseback riding, rock climbing, cultural village walks, guided nature and forest walks, are also available at a small additional charge. Meals and overnight at Kirurumu.

Day 3
NGORONGORO

This morning you drive through the farming areas of Karatu onto the spectacular rainforest rim of Ngorongoro Crater. Arrive your lodge for lunch, followed by an afternoon game drive on the crater floor. Game viewing at any time of the year is often the best of every safari! Meals and overnight at the lodge on the rim of the crater, with fantastic views.

Day 4
SERENGETI

Morning drive into the Serengeti National Park, stopping en-route at Olduvai Gorge, the cradle of mankind. The Serengeti -- undoubtedly the best-known wildlife sanctuary in the world -- is home to an incredible number of animals and is unequaled for its natural beauty. During your three days, you’ll enjoy the excitement of an adventure camp set up actually in the park. At night the sounds of Africa are guaranteed to form some of your most lasting memories!

Days 5-6
SERENGETI

Daily game-drives exploring the wide-open spaces of the Serengeti, visiting different habitats and following the ebb and flow of life in its seasonal movements. There may be also time to visit sacred Maasai sites. Meals and overnights in your adventure camp.

Day 7
ARUSHA/Depart

A quick morning flight returns you to Arusha, where you’ll be met and shown around town. Time for shopping before lunch at a popular local restaurant. In the afternoon, you’ll be taken to a hotel adjacent Kilimanjaro Airport where private rooms are available before the evening departures.

Special Note:Available to everyone, this is an ideal short safari add-on to any of our Kilimanjaro climbs.
