Welcome to the Safari Capital
Land at Kilimanjaro International Airport, where your Adhimu Safaris representative will welcome you and transfer you to the historic Arusha Coffee Lodge. Settle into your boutique plantation suite, relax by the pool, and enjoy farm-to-table dining as you prepare for the safari adventure ahead.
Lake Manyara National Park & Coffee Highlands
Travel west through the vibrant town of Mto wa Mbu before embarking on a game drive in Lake Manyara National Park. Search for Manyara's famous tree-climbing lions, large elephant families, and the thousands of pink flamingos wading in the alkaline lake. Enjoy a picnic lunch under the canopy before ascending the escarpment to Karatu, checking in at the elegant Ngorongoro Farmhouse, nestled on a lush coffee plantation.
Descend into the Prehistoric Caldera
Begin with an early morning descent into the Ngorongoro Crater, a volcanic caldera that harbors over 25,000 large mammals. Spend the morning searching for critically endangered black rhinos, pride lions, and hyenas. Enjoy a picnic breakfast on the crater floor. Settle back at the lodge for a relaxing evening, recounting the day's experiences.
Fly into the Endless Serengeti
Settle into your light aircraft flight from Manyara airstrip directly to the heart of the Serengeti. Transfer to the Adhimu Serengeti Migration Camp, positioned strategically to witness the migration herds depending on the season. Spend the next three days tracking the colossal movement of wildebeest, zebras, and the apex predators that follow them. Opt for a sunrise hot-air balloon flight over the plains for a breathtaking view of the wilderness.
Return via Kilimanjaro
Take in a final sunrise breakfast over the Serengeti plains before transferring to the airstrip. Board your charter flight back to Kilimanjaro International Airport for your international journey home.
