We shall take you to exclusive, secluded luxury lodges to romantic, high-end mobile tented camps that offer close proximity to nature. Unique game drives, highlights include hot air balloon rides over the Serengeti, walking safaris where possible, and beach relaxation on Zanzibar.
After arrival at the airport (Kilimanjaro International Airport/ Arusha Airport), your private driver guide will pick you up and transfer you to your accommodation. There you'll have dinner and your overnight stay awaiting your safari departure the following day.
Early in the morning after breakfast, You will depart through your flight to Serengeti National Park. The Serengeti is truly spectacular. It is famous for its vast open grasslands which allow for excellent sightings of wildlife. The Serengeti is Tanzania’s oldest national park and is also one of the oldest ecosystems on earth. Its climate and vegetation have remained largely untouched for millions of years. Whilst the Serengeti boasts abundant wildlife, it is perhaps best known for the annual Great Migration. Vast numbers of wildebeest; accompanied by large numbers of zebra and antelope move in an annual pattern, constantly seeking fresh grazing. The precise timing of the migration is entirely dependent on the rainfall patterns each year. After lunch and an extensive game drive, we'll head for our tented partner lodges for dinner and your overnight stay. You will spend 2 nights in this incredible place.
Wake early for a sunrise game drive with breakfast in the bush. Spend the rest of the day exploring Serengeti’s vast plains, spotting lions, cheetahs, elephants, and more. Return to your lodge in the evening for a couple’s toast, a spa treatment, and a gourmet dinner beneath the stars.
After early breakfast, you will descend down the crater which is almost 600m deep. The Crater was created when a large volcano exploded and collapsed in on itself two to three million years ago. It is famous for both its geological delights and for being a natural reserve that is home to some of the densest large mammal populations in the whole of the African continent. The drive down into the Crater is an adventure in itself and when you reach the Crater floor, you quickly find yourself amongst large numbers of wildebeest, zebra, gazelle, and more than 500 bird species. The Crater provides you with the best chance of seeing the endangered black rhino, which can sometimes be spotted in the open grasslands. After lunch and an extensive game drive inside the crater, we'll head for our luxury lodge for dinner and your overnight stay.
Early in the morning after breakfast, You will depart to Lake Manyara National Park which is an unspoilt paradise and is best known for its abundance of birds and tree-climbing lions. The dramatic western escarpment of the Rift Valley forms the park’s western border. To the east is the shallow, alkaline Lake Manyara. The lake covers a large area of the park, flooding and drying with the seasons and is home to thousands of flamingos during the rains. The name Manyara comes from the Maasai word ‘emanyara’, a popular plant which is used to build the protective enclosure around a family homestead (boma). The park’s vegetation is diverse, ranging from savannah to evergreen forest. On your exploration of the park, you may see giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, buffalo, elephants and if you are lucky; lions lounging in the trees. After lunch and an extensive game drive, we'll head for our luxury partner lodges for dinner and your overnight stay.
After breakfast, spend some time at the lodge for relaxation and leisure, and, if time allows, take a short tour of Arusha town to do some shopping. From here, we will transfer you to Arusha Airport for your air transfer to Zanzibar.
