Tanzania Luxury Safari – Serengeti & Ngorongoro

You are collected from your Arusha hotel in the morning and transferred to the airstrip for a scenic flight over the Rift Valley and Ngorongoro highlands to the Serengeti. Land at a bush airstrip where your guide meets you, then drive to camp in time for lunch. In the afternoon head out for a first game drive across the plains, looking for the herds and predators of the central Serengeti. Dinner and overnight at your luxury camp.

Spend a full day exploring the Serengeti with morning and afternoon game drives and a picnic lunch in the bush. Your guide follows the migration herds and the predators that trail them, looking for lion, cheetah, leopard and vast herds of wildebeest and zebra. The open plains offer exceptional photography, and the afternoon light is ideal for landscapes. Optional hot air balloon safaris can be arranged at extra cost. Return to camp for dinner.

After breakfast leave the Serengeti and drive south through the Ndutu woodland towards the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, with a game drive en route. Stop for lunch and continue to the crater rim, where the views open over the caldera. Arrive at Acacia Farm Lodge in the afternoon and relax in the cool highland air, with time for an optional coffee tour or nature walk at extra cost. Dinner and overnight.

Descend early into the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Africa's greatest wildlife arenas. Spend the morning game driving across the crater floor in search of black rhino, lion, elephant, buffalo, hippo and flamingo, with a picnic lunch beside the Ngoitokitok Springs. Climb back out in the afternoon and drive to Arusha, where the safari ends with a drop-off at your hotel or the airport.
