Pickup from the airport after briefing and greetings - transfer to the hotel.
Day 1: pick up from the hotel early in the morning (around 8:30 am) and start our safari - transfer to Tarangire national park. This is one of the best-kept secrets of the north circuit. The park covers an area of 2,850 sq km and it offers some unique and diverse landscapes. The permanent presence of water in the area makes it a good choice especially during the dry season (June - Oct, Dec - Feb) as plenty of wild animals migrate here. The park is home to big baobab trees, big mammals, and especially elephants, as long as other carnivores. Alternatively, you can choose Lake Manyara national park which offers some breathtaking sceneries. Lake Manyara is famous for its lush acacia forest, giant figs, and mahogany trees, as well as for its growing population of baboons and blue monkeys. You will be able to spot giraffes, elephants, impalas, buffaloes, and a large number of hippos. Some unique facts about this park include the tree-climbing lions, flamingos on the lake shore, as well as the Ground Hornbill, and the Crested Eagle. Lunch inside the park and afternoon game drive. Evening transfer to the hotel.

The “land of endless plains”, since it covers an area of 14,760 sq km, is divided roughly into short grass and woodland area. It’s the land of the nomadic Masaai tribe and is also known for its wildlife density and annual wildebeest migration. Don’t miss the opportunity to live this experience. Lunch inside the park and afternoon game drive. Evening return to the lodge or camp.

Ngorongoro covers 8,200 sq km and is part and parcel of the broader Serengeti ecosystem. It is often called the 8th wonder of the world since it has it all: stunning landscapes, wildlife density, and a mankind community (Masaai) co-existing in perfect harmony with the wildlife. The Ngorongoro’s crater caldera is intact and it hosts the very rare Black Rhino. It’s also the largest concentration of wildlife per square km in the world. Words alone cannot express the beauty of Ngorongoro, you have to see for yourself what this majestic place is all about. We are convinced that you will agree, it deserves the title of the eighth wonder of the world! Overnight to the crater reef.
