DAY 1

Arrival in Arusha

On your arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you will be surprised by a glass of champagne set prepared by our airport office representative who will also assist you with your visa as well as your luggage. Meet your safari professional guide who’ll drive you to Arusha to your lodge for the dinner and overnight. Arusha, also known as "A" Town by the locals, is situated at the foot of Mount Meru, Africa's 5th highest mountain. The altitude gives the city a pleasant climate and lush green environment. Arusha is not a particularly attractive city in itself and is regarded by many visitors as little more than a necessary stopover before their safari starts in earnest. However, the natural charm of the Tanzanians and the buzz of a fast-growing city mean that Arusha has plenty to offer for those who are prepared to see beyond their air-conditioned safari trucks and satellite -TV equipped hotel rooms.

DAY 2

Tarangire

After your leisure breakfast at your beautiful lodge surrounded by a big coffee farm, your guide will pick you up and drive you to Tarangire National Park for a full day game. Your driver will set and prepare the table for a fully hot meal lunch with soup, bread rolls, the main dish and fruit salad. To be followed with a glass of wine or tea and coffee. After lunch, we’ll continue with a game drive until evening and then drive to the camp for your dinner and overnight. The park is located slightly off the main safari route. Tarangire National Park is a lovely and quiet park in Northern Tanzania that is most famous for its elephant migration, birding and quiet authentic safari atmosphere. The majority of travelers to the region either miss out on Tarangire altogether or venture into the park for a matter of hours leaving parts of Tarangire virtually untouched.

DAY 3

Leisure Day in Chem Chem

Today, you will have a leisure breakfast at the lodge. After breakfast, you may choose to have a walking safari guided by an experienced Masai guide and in the afternoon, back to the lodge for lunch. You’ll have a leisure sundowner on the tranquil shores of Lake Manyara with a drink in hand after the day’s excitement of exploring the bush and then back to the lodge for your dinner and overnight. The true safari experience is evident everywhere. A handful of luxury vintage tents guarantee an intimate experience with this untamed land. Unfenced ter ritory sees animals move through the camp. Game drives on open-air safari vehicles offer unforgettable moments: watch cheetah sprint across the savannah; observe elephants herds on the move; thrill at the rare sight of tree-climbing lions… Meals: B,L,D

DAY 4

Southern Serengeti

After breakfast from the camp, we'll depart and transfer to Lake Manyara Airstrip for your flight to Serengeti South. (A 2-night all-inclusive stay at the authentic private, Mwiba Lodge.) The Southern Serengeti is a secluded haven set atop massive stone boulders, surrounded by ancient coral trees and acacias, overlooking a rocky gorge on the Arugusinyai River. Vast vistas stretch out before you: untamed landscapes vibrantly lush with plant life, freshwater springs and a diverse array of wildlife. You will also have an opportunity to visit and dance with a real Datoga tribe and authentic Masai tribe and learn the rich culture of these nomadic tribes. Meals: B,L,D

DAY 5

Ngorongoro Crater

After breakfast, we will depart for a full day game drive at the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. This is an extensive highland area along the eastern arm of the Great Rift Valley, with the world-renowned Ngorongoro Crater as its focal point. It is not a national park in the strict sense of the word, but was rather established to conserve wildlife and other natural resources. It exists to safeguard the interests of indigenous people as well as promote tourism. Thus, guests on safari have the unique experience of seeing Maasai herdsmen with their cattles among the tremendous variety of wildlife found in the area. Meals: B,L,D

DAY 6

Seronera (Central Serengeti)

After breakfast at the lodge, we'll proceed to a morning game drive en route to the airstrip where you will take a short flight to Seronera, the central part of Serengeti. You’ll arrive in time for an afternoon game drive and check in to the camp for the dinner and overnight. This part of the park is well-known for its healthy stock of other resident wildlife, particularly the big five named for the five most prized trophies taken by hunters. Some of these are Lions: the Serengeti is believed to hold the largest population of lions in Africa due in part to the abundance of prey species. More than 3,000 lions live in this ecosystem. African Leopard: these elusive predators are commonly seen in the Seronera region but are present throughout the national park with a population of around 1,000. Meals: B,L,D

DAY 7

Seronera (Central Serengeti)

Early in the morning, take your hot air balloon safari. Afterwards, return to the camp for your breakfast then proceed to a full day game drive in the park. Seronera is the home of big cats. In the evening, you’ll have sundowner drinks prepared by your guide and then back to the camp for dinner and overnight. Meals: B,L,D

DAY 8

Ngorongoro Crater

Depart after breakfast, and drive to Ngorongoro Crater for a full day tour at the crater. Your driver will set and prepare the table for a hot lunch with soup, bread rolls, the main dish and fruit salad, followed by a glass of wine or tea and coffee. In the evening, drive to the lodge for the dinner and overnight stay. The jewel in Ngorongoro's crown is a deep, volcanic crater, the largest unflooded and unbroken caldera in the world. About 20kms across, 600 meters deep and 300 sq kms in area, the Ngorongoro Crater is a breathtaking natural wonder. We will visit Lake Magadi, a large but shallow alkaline lake in the southwestern corner, which is one of the main features of the crater. A large number of flamingos, hippos and other water birds can usually be seen here. Meals: B,L,D

DAY 9

After breakfast at the lodge, enjoy a morning walk at the Ngorongoro Crater rim and then back to the lodge for lunch before departing for Arusha for your overnight stay at the Legendary Lodge. Ngorongoro Crater Rim walk is a very good way to get out of the car without committing to serious walking or trekking after several days of wildlife viewing. It allows you to see tracks and signs and have the feeling of isolation that comes from trekking in the African Bush. An expert guide and armed ranger will accompany you during the walk to protect you from dangerous wildlife. To start your Ngorongoro Crater Rim hike, you will drive to the starting point. The walk follows the Western rim of the Crater past the spectacular Oloirobi viewpoint. There are patches of forest to begin with and later it opens up into grassland. There are spectacular views down into the Crater on your right as you walk and then some more great views emerge to your left towards Olduvai Gorge, the Serengeti and the Gol mountains. Meals: B,L,D

DAY 10

Leisure Day – Airport

Leisure breakfast and lunch at the lodge and depending on your departure flight back home, you will be transferred to the Kilimanjaro International Airport. Meals: B,L
