Jewels of Tanzania

Day 1 : Kilimanjaro > Tarangire National Park

On arrival at Kilimanjaro, you will be transferred to Nimali Lodge in Tarangire National Park for the next two nights. One of the lesser-known game reserves in Tanzania, it offers a great diversity of wildlife. During the dry season, the Tarangire River is the only source of water in the area, which attracts abundant wildlife.

Day 2 : Tarangire National Park

Morning and afternoon safaris, as well as “sofa safaris” at the lodge where there is a waterhole right in front of camp.

Day 3 : Tarangire National Park > Ngorongoro Region

Today you will drive to the Ngorongoro region and spend three nights at Gibbs Farm, an idyllic farmhouse set among picturesque grounds. Learn about farm life and enjoy a full-day safari into the Ngorongoro Crater itself.

Day 4 : Ngorongoro Crater

Today you will be taken on a full day safari excursion in the nearly 3-million year-old intact caldera known as the Ngorongoro Crater. This Natural Wonder of the World is home to the highest density of big game wildlife in Africa grazing and living on the fertile land with the most stunning backdrop of the crater walls.

Day 5 : Ngorongoro Region

Today you have time to enjoy and savour the sanctuary of Gibbs Farm, or enjoy several optional excursions.

Day 6 : Ngorongoro Region > Serengeti National Park

Days 7 & 8 : Serengeti National Park

The camp movement is planned to anticipate movements of the Great Migration, bringing you as close as possible to the wildebeest action.

Day 9 : Serengeti > Kilimanjaro
