7 Day Safari Tour

Day 1

Arrive Kilimanjaro International Airport and transfer to the hotel.

Day 2: After breakfast, we load up the vehicle, and drive away from Moshi to Lake Munyara . By comparison with Ngorongoro and Tarangire, Manyara is much smaller but no less scenic. It is thus ideally suited as an introduction to safari touring. It is situated between the escarpment formed by the rift valley and the soda water lake Manyara . It is an ideal spot for bird lovers and is home to large groups of elephant as well as the 'tree climbing lion". We overnight at the camp.

Day 3 : After breakfast drive to and tour Serengeti with overnight at camp. The areas is particularly famous for the massive migration of 1.5million Wildebeest, and several thousand Gazelle and Zebra all heading for greener pastures and improved grazing area's, risking life and limb to predators such as Lion and Crocodile. The National Park is broadly divided into three distinct areas, the Seronera Valley and Seronera River, the Western Corridor and the Northern 'Lobo' area that extends northwards to join the Masai Mara.

Day 4

After breakfast tour Serengeti park (picnic lunch) overnight at camp.

Day 5

Morning tour Serengeti drive to Ngorongoro (picnic lunch) . The Ngorongoro Crater is the world's largest intact caldera, forming an incredible bowl shape with sides of about 600m deep, and covering a distance of about 270km square. Various habitats form a complete microcosm within the crater floor, from grasslands to forest, swamps and lake Makat . As a result, it is home to some 20 000 wild animals and although the animals move in and out of the area consistently, the vegetation in the crater floor attracts is a source of ongoing food supply attracting the gazers, and thus, predators as well. We will enjoy a picnic lunch in the crater and later, proceed to the camp.
