A Special Safari for those with Time Constraints

Visit spectacular Tarangire and Lake Manyara National Parks and the unforgettable wilderness of Ngorongoro Crater.

Day 1: Arusha to Tarangire National Park

After picking you up from your hotel in our 4WD vehicle, specifically built for Game viewing with an open top, we travel to Tarangire National Park, home of the largest herds of elephants in East Africa. These herds migrate along the wildlife corridor to nearby Lake Manyara National Park. Animal population here rivals that of the Serengeti so you will also have a chance to see wildebeests, zebras, elands, hartebeests, buffaloes, gerenuks, fringe eared Oryx, and flocks of birds of many different species.

We will enjoy a picnic lunch in the Park and then dinner and overnight at a selected Standard Tented Camp/Lodge

Day 2: Ngorongoro Crater

Known as the eighth wonder of the world and land of the Maasai people, this protected area is located in the Great Rift Valley. Volcanoes, mountains, plains, lakes, forests and archeological sites form this magnificent landscape. After a delicious breakfast, we depart early to make the best of the day in the Crater. One of Tanzania’s safari icons, the Crater is known for both its wonderful scenery and its varied wildlife. The bottom of the crater (265 km square) is dotted with watering holes and shelters almost 30,000 animals, including lions and rare black rhinos, in an area naturally enclosed by the slopes of a volcano. We will spend the morning game driving and then enjoy a picnic lunch on the Crater floor.
