After breakfast you will be picked up by your private driver guide from your accommodation in Arusha and drive to Tarangire National Park (approximately 2 hours). Tarangire, well known for its large elephant herds, consists of a diversity of landscapes, from seasonal swamps to savanna with the Tarangire River wending its way through the parklands. From the open top of our safari truck we seek to encounter many animals including zebra, wildebeest, buffalo, elephant and giraffe. It is possible that we will have the experience of seeing simba stalking his prey or leopards watching whilst relaxing in the trees above. After lunch in the park and an extensive game drive, we drive to our luxury accommodation in Karatu for dinner and overnight stay with capacious rooms.

Early morning after breakfast, we depart to Serengeti National Park. The Serengeti is truly spectacular. It is famous for its vast open grasslands which allow for excellent sightings of wildlife. The Serengeti is Tanzania’s oldest National Park and it is also one of the oldest ecosystems on earth. Its climate and vegetation have remained largely untouched for millions of years. Whilst the Serengeti boasts abundant wildlife, it is perhaps best known for the annual Great Migration. Vast numbers of wildebeest; accompanied by large numbers of zebra and antelope move in an annual pattern, constantly seeking fresh grazing. The precise timing of the Migration is entirely dependent upon the rainfall patterns each year. After Lunch and an extensive game drive, we head for our Tented luxury partner lodges for dinner and overnight.

Accommodation:  Kubu Kubu Tented Camp

• Luxury tented camp located inside Central Serengeti

Today we awake very early to undertake an early morning safari before breakfast to spot the animals in their morning activity and to partake of a sublime sunrise blooming in the African sky before us. We then safari on to Ngorongoro Crater inhabited by almost every species of wildlife indigenous to East Africa including the rare black rhino. In fact, the crater hosts the greatest concentration of wildlife on the planet. It contains a river, several swamps, a soda lake that, from the top, looks like a stream, full of flamingos, with forest and open plains spreading out before our eyes. The large bull elephants that reside here, whom we will meet, have extremely large tusks due to the rich mineral content of the volcanic soil and its grasses. At days end we return to Karatu, to our, carefully chosen by us for excellence, mid range partner lodge for dinner in an aesthetically refined restaurant with our capacious quarters awaiting us for a night of ease and dreams of wild cats!
