Private Group Serengeti Safari, Crater & Tarangire National Park

Day 1: Serengeti National Park

1. Serengeti National Park
   1 day
   Drive to the Serengetiand your morning safari will begin. Enjoy the experience of a lifetime in Tanzania’s largest and most popular wildlife sanctuary. The Serengeti is vast and beautiful; it’s one of Africa’s most captivating safari areas. The sheer amount of game here is amazing: estimates suggest up to about two million wildebeest, plus perhaps half a million zebra, hundreds of thousands of Thompson’s gazelle, and tens of thousands of impala, Grant’s gazelle, topi, hartebeest, eland and other antelope – all hunted by the predators for which these plains are famous. You will enjoy a game drive in the Serengeti before retiring at the nearby lodge with dinner and overnight.

Day 2: Serengeti & Ngorongoro Highlands

1. Ngorongoro Conservation Area
   1 day
   After breakfast, we have a full morning drive throughout the Serengeti enjoying the early wildlife activity across the endless plains. The afternoon game drive through the Serengeti will transition into the lush landscapes of the Ngorongoro Highlands with a picnic lunch and optional visits to the Olduvai Gorge and/or Masai Village~ Additional cost apply for Gorge and Masai Village. Dinner and overnight stay at lodge.
   
   No Ngorongoro safari would be complete without the predators, which are often highly visible on the crater floor. The Crater’s lion population varies significantly over time, the one constant being their complete adaptation for safari vehicles as evident with their hunting within yards of a vehicle, and when exhausted even seek their shade beside it. Spotted hyena are even more common here, often competing with the lion, and there’s are a small but growing number of cheetah.

Day 3: Tarangire National Park

1. Tarangire National Park
   1 day
   After breakfast we drive to Ngorongoro Crater and descend into the Carter with a picnic lunch. You’ll enjoy a full day Crater game drive. Included among the 7 Natural Wonders, this extinct volcano collapsed eons ago turning it into a beautiful natural enclosure. The showpiece of the conservation area is undoubtedly the Ngorongoro Crater itself. It measures about 12 Miles~19km in diameter, with walls of 1900 ‘~610m in height. However you measure it, it’s no wonder that this Crater is numbered among the 7 Natural Wonders of the World.
   
   The mineral-rich floor of this spectacular bowl is largely flat, open and covered in nutritious grasses –enjoyed by large herds of zebra and wildebeest which graze here. These extensive open plains are also home to herds of buffalo, Thomson’s gazelle, Grant’s gazelle and topi. You’ll also find East Africa’s best population of black rhino here which can be seen in open grasslands.
