Kilimanjaro International Airport – Arusha

Set out to explore the vibrant sights and sounds of local life in Arusha

Day 3
Serengeti
We set out in the early morning for a full day’s game drive in search of lion prides

Enjoy a delicious picnic and spend the entire day out exploring the rolling plains of the Serengeti National Park
After an action-packed day in the bush, your guide drops you back at your accommodation inside the national park, in time for a gourmet dinner
Take to the African skies in a hot air balloon to appreciate the pristine natural beauty of this 14,763km2 savannah stretching as far as the eye can see *

* These activities are at an additional cost
Day 4
Serengeti – Ngorongoro Crater
After an early breakfast, you depart with your lunch for a final morning game drive in the Serengeti
Few lions hunt during the heat of the day and so early morning is often the best time to observe the thrill of the chase
Enjoy your last few moments in the Serengeti National Park before we make the three-hour transfer to Ngorongoro Crater
Check-in to your accommodation in Ngorongoro and settle into your new surroundings
Enjoy a guided walk around the rim of the mighty Ngorongoro Crater. In addition to seeing breathtaking views of the volcanic crater and the diverse wildlife, our expert guides will also teach you about its incredible indigenous flora and fauna*
Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
* These activities are at an additional cost
Day 5
Ngorongoro Crater – Kilimanjaro International Airport
Wake up early to panoramic views of the crater, and after breakfast, head off for a day trip to explore the many fascinating species that are protected within its rim
Here, we can see the Big Five in high concentration against the stunning backdrop of the crater walls
After a day of exploring, you are transferred to Kilimanjaro International Airport – where we wave you a fond farewell
