Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater & Maasai
Village
The Wilderness & Culture Experience
Our Wilderness and Culture Experience is a combination of
conventional activities that one expects to do when in Africa and connecting
with the native people. Tarangire National Park is home to a large population
of elephant herds and colossal baobab trees are scattered across the plains of
the savannah.
We will proceed to the Maasai Steppe – a landscape that
encompasses a vast range of woodlands and magnificent peaks. It is located
between Arusha and Tarangire National Park and it is home to the infamous
Maasai tribe. We will stop at one of the Maasai villages where we will have the
opportunity to marvel at the colourful garments of the locals and discover
their ancient traditions. We will also get an insight of their habitual duties
and roles. Our descent into the Ngorongoro Crater, which has been awarded the
title “Africa’s Garden of Eden”, is another highlight on the fixture. This
magnificent scenery is paired with an abundance of species making it the ideal
spot for a game drive.
Day One: Moshi to Tarangire National Park
We leave Moshi early in the morning and proceed to Tarangire
National Park, where we will encounter the massive termite mounds and countless
baobab trees. The picturesque scenery, the large elephant population and the
diverse species of birds – make Tarangire the perfect sanctuary for
tranquillity. Tarangire’s wildlife includes elephants, lions, giraffe,
warthogs, ostriches, impalas, cheetah, mongoose, buffaloes, and baboons. After
the game drive we will depart to the Ngorongoro Crater rim campsite and witness
the spectacular sunset.
Day Two: Ngorongoro Crater to Maasai Steppe
We will have a timely start to the day to ensure that we
arrive at the Ngorongoro Crater promptly – it is beneficial to leave early as
it is a good time to spot animals. We will enjoy a magnificent game drive with
a picnic lunch inside the Crater. Migration in and out of the crater is
infrequent due to its elevated structure which means there is a high chance of
spotting every member of ‘The Big 5’.
This powerful group comprises of buffalo, lions, elephants,
rhinos, lions and leopards. Nearly three million years ago a colossal volcano
exploded and the crater was moulded into the spectacular shape we witness
today. You can also expect to encounter zebra, hippo, wildebeest and hyena roaming
around the caldera.
Flamingos and geese can be found lounging around the Soda
Lake, other birds include storks and vultures. You will be astonished by your
guide’s ability to locate hidden animals. We will drive back to the Fanaka
campsite where comprehensive camping facilities are available.
Day Three: Maasai Steppe to Moshi
We will travel to the Maasai Steppe for the final element of
your journey. You will share a cultural experience with the most renowned tribe
in East Africa – the Maasai. The Maasai are highly fascinating due to the fact
that they have preserved their culture and still uphold the values of their
ancestors.
We will have a chance
to witness a ritual performance that includes singing and dancing. After an
exhilarating day spent with the Maasai tribe we will drive back to Moshi.
Transportation to the airport can be arranged on request.
