What to expect

Day 1: Tarangire National Park
  1. Tarangire National Park
    9m
    Less crowded than the Serengeti yet equally spectacular, Tarangire rewards visitors with raw, authentic bush experiences. The dry season (June–October) brings unmatched wildlife viewing as animals converge on the river.
    Home to one of Africa's largest elephant populations, Tarangire is a wild and ancient landscape defined by its iconic baobab trees and the life-giving Tarangire River.

    What you will See & Do:

    Witness massive elephant herds gathering at the river — some of the largest concentrations in Tanzania

Day 2: Lake Manyara National park
  1. Lake Manyara National Park
    9m
    Nestled beneath the Great Rift Valley escarpment, Lake Manyara is a compact yet extraordinarily diverse park where the lake itself is the star of the show.
    Small but mighty, Lake Manyara delivers big surprises in a short visit. Its varied habitats — forest, floodplain, and alkaline lake — pack an exceptional wildlife experience into just a few hours, making it a perfect stop on the northern safari circuit
    What you will See & Do:
    Spot Tanzania's famous tree-climbing lions — a rare behavior unique to this park

Day 3: Serengeti National Park

    9h
    The Serengeti is Africa's most iconic safari destination — a vast, ancient ecosystem where nature plays out on an epic scale across endless golden plains.

    Ngorongoro guarantees extraordinary wildlife encounters in a setting of breathtaking geological beauty—unlike anywhere else on earth.
