Central Serengeti
We begin this journey with a flight from Arusha into the heart of the Serengeti, offering a bird’s-eye view of the plains below. Once on the ground, it’s straight into a game drive. There’s nothing quite like your first moments here—the open landscape, the smell of the savanna, and the sense that anything could appear over the next hill. Today, we’ll roam the central Serengeti, where prides of lions often lounge atop the Kopjes and elephants move through acacia groves. After an afternoon filled with sightings, we’ll head to our camp or lodge, where you’ll relax to the sounds of the Serengeti at night.

Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast, we set out for more game viewing in the Serengeti before beginning our journey towards the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. En route, there’s a chance to stop and take in some of the Serengeti’s most dramatic landscapes. As we reach the crater rim, the sheer scope of Ngorongoro unfolds before us. Tonight, we’ll settle in for a comfortable stay on the rim, knowing that tomorrow we’ll descend into this incredible natural amphitheater.

End
Arusha
Today, we descend into Ngorongoro Crater, a natural marvel and one of Tanzania’s most sought-after safari destinations. With its rich volcanic soil, the crater floor sustains an impressive variety of wildlife, from grazing zebras and buffaloes to the more elusive predators. We’ll spend the morning exploring this “lost world,” stopping near the lake for lunch while hippos and birds add to the scene. Later in the afternoon, we’ll ascend the crater walls and make our way back to Arusha, completing a journey filled with unforgettable moments.
