Day 1: Moshi to Serengeti
National Park
We will leave Moshi early morning
and travel to Serengeti National Park. We will travel to Serengeti on a road
near the rim of Ngorongoro Crater, allowing for animal sightings along the way.
The golden savannah and endless plains, teeming with zebras, wildebeest and
giraffes make it easy to understand why the Serengeti is one of the Seven
Natural Wonders of Africa. On this day, we will enjoy a picnic lunch on Naabai
kopje (a small, rocky hill in a generally flat area), where you will have the
opportunity to view the Serengeti’s famous pink-headed lizards. After lunch, we
will proceed further into the plains for a leisurely game drive. You will spend
the night at the Serengeti Nyani Campsite, and fall asleep to the playful calls
of the zebra and hyenas. As with guaranteed with each tour, guests are provided
with comprehensive camping facilities.
Day 2: Serengeti National
Park
We
will begin the day in heart of the Serengeti. The animals found in the Serengeti
are extremely diverse so visitors will likely enjoy views of lions, leopards,
elephants, cheetahs, water buffalo, zebras, and wildebeest. In addition,
elands, hyenas, gazelles, crocodiles, giraffe, zebras, monkeys, baboons,
hippos, rhinos and antelopes are all found within the park. Don’t worry about
the time of year of your safari, because there are animals within the Serengeti
all year! After the game drive, a delectable dinner will be served at our
campsite in Seronera.
Day 3: Serengeti National
Park to Ngorongoro Crater
This
day marks the last day of game drive in Serengeti before we make our way to
Ngorongoro Crater. After an exciting game drive full of animal sightings and a
picnic lunch, we will drive to the Crater. This night we will stay at Simba
Camp, overlooking the unbroken caldera of Ngorongoro Crater. The views of the
sunset over the savannah are absolutely breathtaking. After a long day of
adventuring, guests will enjoy a tasty dinner prepared by our friendly cook.
Day 4: Ngorongoro Crater
to Moshi
After
an early morning breakfast, we will hurry to Ngorongoro Crater, as it is the
best time to spot animals. On this day, we will enjoy a game drive around the
crater and stop for a picnic lunch at a small lake within the park. The lake is
home to many hippos and migratory birds, so guests will be sure to enjoy the
visit! Due to the animal “oasis” created within the crater, there is a high
possibility of spotting every member of ‘The Big 5’. The group comprises some
of the strongest animals in Africa – the ferocious lion, the giant elephant,
the stealthy leopard, the charging rhino and the mighty water buffalo.
Ngorongoro Crater is truly an amazing place. Did you know it was formed over
two million of years ago? A large volcano erupted, collapsing the volcano, but
left a perfectly unbroken crater, known as a caldera. Within the amazing crater
you can expect to view the playful zebra, lumbering hippo, swift wildebeest and
cackling hyenas. In addition, there are flocks of graceful flamingos along the
Soda Lake, while hungry hawks and vultures circle the sky in search their next
meal of discarded carcass. Beautiful storks, ibis, and cranes are popular water
birds in the crater, a sight not to miss. After a lovely afternoon of animal
sightings, we will finally start our journey back to Moshi. Arrangements for
transportation to the airport can be made on request.
