Tarangire National Park 
Tarangire National Park, located in northern Tanzania, is one of the country’s most rewarding yet 
often overlooked safari destinations. Covering approximately 2,850 square kilometres, the park is 
renowned for its vast, rugged landscapes, ancient baobab trees, and a rich diversity of wildlife. 
During the dry season, Tarangire becomes a magnet for animals, drawing one of the highest 
concentrations of wildlife outside the Serengeti. The life-giving Tarangire River, which winds its way 
through the park, is a crucial water source for herds of elephants, wildebeest, zebras, and antelope.
The park is particularly famous for its elephant population, offering visitors remarkable close-up 
encounters with these majestic creatures. It is also a haven for birdwatchers, with over 500 recorded 
species, including vibrant, yellow-collared lovebirds, bateleur eagles, and the rare ashy starling. 
Predators such as lions, leopards, and cheetahs are also present, often seen stalking the open 
savannah or resting in the shade of acacia trees. The dramatic scenery, shifting from open plains to 
swamps and woodlands, provides a varied and stunning backdrop for wildlife viewing.
Tarangire’s distinctive character lies in its quieter, more authentic atmosphere compared to the 
more famous parks nearby. Visitors can explore its beauty through traditional game drives, guided 
walking safaris, and cultural visits to nearby Maasai and Barabaig communities. Whether it’s 
marvelling at a parade of elephants silhouetted against a fiery sunset or listening to the calls of 
distant lions at night, Tarangire National Park offers an unforgettable and deeply immersive safari
Day 03
After a morning game drive and lunch at the lodge, depart the Tarangire region. Your journey takes 
you through the surrounding bushland, passing small Maasai villages and farmland. The road is 
mostly unpaved but generally well-maintained, with occasional bumps and dips.
After approximately 20 minutes, you will reach the town of Makuyuni, where you turn left onto the 
main road leading towards Lake Manyara, the Great Rift Valley, and onward to Karatu town. This 
section of the drive is on a paved road in good condition, winding through lush green hills and 
valleys, with stunning views of the surrounding landscapes.
As you near Karatu, you will notice small roadside markets and shops. Karatu itself is a lively, bustling 
town, known for its vibrant local market and its location near the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. 
Upon arrival at your lodge, check in and enjoy the remainder of the day and evening at leisure.

Day 04
Depart early from your lodge and enter the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Your journey begins 
with a climb up the back wall of the crater, continuing to the rim before descending to the floor of 
the Ngorongoro Crater. Here, you will enjoy a game drive in what is often referred to as a natural 
wildlife paradise. Covering just 102 square miles, yet home to over 30,000 resident mammals, the 
crater offers an excellent opportunity to encounter all members of the famed Big Five.
A picnic lunch box will be provided and enjoyed at a scenic spot within the crater floor, allowing you 
time to relax and absorb the stunning surroundings. In the afternoon, ascend once more to the 
crater rim and continue to your lodge, where dinner and an overnight stay await.

Ngorongoro Conservation Area 
The Ngorongoro Conservation Area, located in northern Tanzania, is one of Africa’s most 
extraordinary protected regions, recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Covering over 8,000 
square kilometres, it encompasses a diverse range of habitats, from open grasslands and volcanic 
craters to dense forests and sweeping highlands. The area was established to conserve wildlife while 
allowing the traditional Maasai communities to maintain their pastoral lifestyles, creating a rare 
balance between human and wildlife co-existence.
Day 05
After breakfast, depart your lodge and begin your journey back to Arusha, arriving in the city in time 
for lunch (drinks not included). Following lunch, you will be transferred to either Kilimanjaro
