Starting your Safari Adventures
Welcome to Tanzania. Arrive in Arusha, where you will be transferred to your accommodation, Arusha Coffee Lodge. Rest and recuperate after your long flight and get ready for the next 11 days of safari adventure.
Tarangire National Park
Your itinerary kicks off in the wilderness of Tarangire National Park and the luxury bush camp that is Oliver’s Camp. Adventure waits in the form of bush walks and night game drives amongst ancient baobab trees and spectacular herds of buffalo and elephant. On your third day, take a hike out to a remote part of the bush, where your very own private tent site awaits. Spend the night under the African night sky.
Welcome to Karatu
You will be transferred to your next accommodation, the luxurious Gibb’s farm. While staying here, you will head off to the Ngorongoro Crater. A full day game drive in the World Heritage site is going to be an experience you will not forget! Down on the crater floor with the walls of the unbroken caldera towering above you on all sides, you will have the chance to marvel at the abundance of wildlife that calls this fascinating landscape their home. Lake Manyara National Park is just an easy 30 minute drive to see more wildlife, and Gibb’ s Farm offers it’ s own host of activities such as farm walks, cultural visits and a mountain bike. day trip to Rotia
Safari in Serengeti National Park
Journey on to Ubuntu Camp – a luxury mobile camp following the movements of the Migration. From July to October, Ubuntu Camp is located in the Northern Serengeti. Here you wait in rapt attention; poised with camera waiting for the moment the herd decides it is time to cross the crocodile infested waters of the Mara River. From December to February, Ubuntu Camp is located inside the Ngorongoro Conservation Area overlooking the open plains. During these months, the herds congregate on the lush grass to give birth to the next generation of wildebeest which quickly turns into a feeding frenzy of easy pickings for the resident cats and scavengers.
Fun in the Sun
For the final leg of your itinerary you can relax, unwind, and let the “hardships” of safari wash away as you lounge in the warm waters of the Indian Ocean and rejuvenate in the oasis that is Matemwe. Fill your last few days with reef walks, dhow trips, snorkelling diving and cultural tours. Head off on a spice tour to learn why Zanzibar was such a sought after trade port. On your last day be sure to spoil yourself with one or two spa treatments before heading back to reality.
Departure Day
This is the final day of your safari, and you will enjoy a delicious breakfast before relaxing while waiting for your guide. Your guide will pick you up and take you to Kilimanjaro International Airport via Arusha for departure.
