Day-by-Day Itinerary
Scroll down to trace the journey across the savanna.
Arrival in Arusha
Land at Kilimanjaro International Airport where your private guide awaits to transfer you to your peaceful sanctuary at the foot of Mount Meru. Spend the evening resting in lush gardens, shaking off the travel fatigue before your safari begins.
Into the Elephant Kingdom of Tarangire
Travel southwest through vibrant villages to Tarangire National Park, famed for its colossal baobab trees. Set out on an afternoon game drive tracing large elephant herds and elusive leopards en route to your luxury tented sanctuary.
Sensing the Savanna
Dedicate a full day to Tarangire's diverse wilderness. Go beyond the vehicle with a morning guided walking safari accompanied by an expert tracker, followed by an afternoon game drive and classic bush sundowners under ancient star-filled skies.
Ascend to the Crater Highlands
Bid farewell to Tarangire as you ascend into the lush, mist-shrouded highlands of Ngorongoro. Your base is a collection of architectural dome suites perched on the side of Olmoti volcano, where wood-burning stoves keep the high-altitude evenings warm.
The Lost World Caldera
Descend early into the Ngorongoro Crater, a prehistoric volcanic amphitheater home to over 25,000 large mammals. Spend the morning searching for critically endangered black rhinos, pride lions, and feeding soda lake flamingos before retiring back to the highland ridges.
Wings Over the Serengeti
Board a scenic flight over the Great Rift Valley, landing in the northern Serengeti. Arrive at your camp nestled along the Mara River, situated perfectly to witness the thunderous movement of the annual wildebeest migration.
Drama on the Mara River
Spend a thrilling day stationed near key river crossing points. Witness the raw instinct of the migration as thousands of wildebeest brave steep cliffs, strong currents, and giant crocodiles in a chaotic, spectacular river crossing.
Predators of the Serengeti
Set out on morning and afternoon game drives tracking the region's abundant apex predators. Spend the warm midday hours relaxing by the rim-flow pool or enjoying a rejuvenating spa therapy overlooking the golden plains.
Farewell East Africa
Enjoy a final breakfast overlooking the endless Serengeti plains before taking a light aircraft flight back to Kilimanjaro International Airport for your journey home.
