Serengeti Safari Highlights –
Ngorongoro National Park, Manyara
This
4 day Serengeti safari covers all the Northern Circuit with an emphasis
on the Serengeti, providing you with time to experience the highlights of the
vast depth and breadth of wildlife, eco-systems and the treasures of a Serengeti
safari.
Day
1 – The 4 day Serengeti 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 Ngorongoro National
Park. Dinner and overnight at the lodge. Ngorongoro’s natural
beauty ranks it among the most pristine wildernesses on earth. It is the
largest intact crater in the world, 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. Its pride and joy, however, is that it remains the last
great wild refuge for black rhino. Dinner and overnight at the lodge at
Ngorongoro.
Day
2 – Today you will descend 2000 feet (over 600 meters) to the floor of the
crater for a half-day crater tour. Explore the forest areas that are inhabited
by monkeys and elephants, the lake area, where you may see the flamingos and
the open savannah where the lions hunt for food. Lunch at the lodge. Afternoon
drive to Serengeti National Park via Olduvai Gorge, the site of Louis
and Mary Leakey’s renowned archaeological discoveries. Their findings
include some of the man’s earliest known ancestral remains. Dinner and
overnight at the lodge.
Day
3 – Serengeti is Tanzania’s oldest and most popular national park. 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 of eland, topi, kongoni,
impala and Grant’s gazelle. Enjoy a morning game viewing in the Serengeti 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 lunch, before departing
to Lake Manyara. Dinner and overnight at the lodge.
Day
4 – After an early breakfast, you will depart for a morning game drive in 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. Mid morning, drive back to Arusha. Lunch at a
restaurant in Arusha town. We trust you have enjoyed a true adventure of a
lifetime!
