lioness – Serengeti – Don’t mess with her!
5 day Tanzania safari – Serengeti,
Ngorongoro, Tarangire & Lake Manyara
This
5 day Tanzania safari covers all the
Northern Circuit safari (Serengeti,
Ngorongoro, Manyara & Tarangire) country providing you with time to
experience the highlights of the vast depth and breadth of wildlife,
eco-systems and the treasures of Tanzania’s North.
Day
1 – The 5 day safari tour starts
with lunch in Arusha town at 12:30hrs. At 14:00hrs join your experienced
professional safari guide in our 4X4 safari vehicle and drive
to Lake Manyara. Enjoy an
evening game drive in the Lake Manyara
National Park. This is one of the most diverse of Tanzania’s national
parks, a tiny (325km²) combination of Rift Valley Lake, dense woodlands and
steep mountainside. Manyara is a birding paradise (more than 380 species)
as well as hippos, monkeys, tree climbing lions, and many other animals. Dinner
and overnight at the lodge.
Day
2 – After an early breakfast, drive to Serengeti
National Park. Serengeti is Tanzania’s oldest and most popular national
park, also a world heritage site and recently proclaimed a 7th worldwide
wonder. The Serengeti is famed for
its annual migration, when some six million hooves pound the open plains,
as more than 200,000 zebra and 300,000 Thomson’s gazelle join the wildebeest’s
trek for fresh grazing. The Serengeti
offers arguably the most scintillating game-viewing in Africa: great
herds of buffalo, smaller groups of elephant and giraffe, and thousands
eland, topi, kongoni, impala and Grant’s gazelle. Lunch at the lodge. Spend the
afternoon game viewing for a chance to see the great herds of wildebeest,
zebras and gazelles or a pride of lions lounging in the shade. Return to your
lodge for dinner and overnight.
Day
3 – Depart for an early morning around your lodge, return to the lodge for
breakfast. Mid morning, depart for Ngorongoro
Conservation Area. Ngorongoro’s natural
beauty ranks it among the most pristine wildernesses on earth. It is the
largest intact crater in the world, being 610 meters deep, 19 kilometers across
and covering an area of 304 square kilometers. On the crater floor, grassland
blends into swamps, lakes, rivers, woodland and mountains – all a haven
for wildlife, including the largest predator population in Africa. The volcanic
crater is jam-packed with wildlife, including all the big game. Its pride and
joy, however, is that it remains the last great wild refuge for black
rhino. Lunch at the lodge. This afternoon, you will descend 2000
feet to the crater floor for a half-day crater tour. Explore the forest
areas that are inhabited by elephants, the lake area, where you may see
flamingos and the savannah where the lions hunt for food. Dinner and overnight
at the lodge.
Day
4 – After breakfast, depart for Tarangire
National Park arriving in time for lunch and an afternoon of game
viewing. The park covers an area of 2800km², has terrain ranging
from open savannah through acacia wooded-grassland, mosaic riverine vegetation.
The park has the last concentration of elephants in East Africa. Lesser
kudu, eland, lion and gerenuk can be found in this beautiful park. Dinner and
overnight at the lodge.
Day
5 – Enjoy an early morning game drive in the Tarangire National Park. Breakfast
at the lodge, followed by the drive back to Arusha with game viewing en route.
Lunch in Arusha town. We trust you have enjoyed a true adventure of a lifetime!
