Welcome to Tanzania! A Serengeti Flavour Safaris representative will meet you at the airport and transfer you comfortably to your accommodation in Arusha. Depending on your arrival time, you can relax at the lodge, recover from your journey and prepare for the safari ahead. Arusha is the gateway to Tanzania’s northern safari circuit and an ideal starting point for exploring some of the country’s most remarkable national parks. Main Destination: Arusha

After breakfast, meet your Serengeti Flavour Safaris guide and drive towards Tarangire National Park along good tarmac roads. Named after the Tarangire River, the park is especially renowned for its large elephant herds, spectacular baobab trees and diverse wildlife. During your game drive, look out for giraffes, buffaloes, zebras, wildebeest, lions and, with some luck, elusive leopards. Tarangire is also an exceptional birding destination, supporting an impressive variety of bird species. Enjoy a picnic lunch inside the park before continuing to Karatu for your overnight stay. Main Destination: Tarangire National Park

After breakfast, journey through the scenic Ngorongoro Conservation Area towards the Serengeti. Along the way, enjoy the opportunity to pause and admire the spectacular Ngorongoro Crater before continuing towards the southern entrance of Serengeti National Park. As you enter the Serengeti, the landscape opens into vast grasslands teeming with wildlife. The park is world-famous for the Great Migration, when millions of wildebeest, zebras and other animals move in search of fresh grazing. Your Serengeti Flavour Safaris team will plan your route according to seasonal wildlife movements, helping you experience the best possible game viewing. Main Destination: Serengeti National Park

Spend a full day exploring the remarkable Serengeti on game drives. Every corner of the park offers something different, from open plains and rocky kopjes to rivers and woodland areas where wildlife gathers. Watch for large herds of buffalo, impalas and other plains game, as well as hippos and crocodiles around water sources. The Serengeti is also home to Africa’s most iconic predators, including lions, cheetahs and leopards. Depending on the season and location of the Great Migration, your guide may travel beyond Central Serengeti to follow the wildlife and discover new areas of this extraordinary ecosystem. Main Destination: Serengeti National Park

Continue your Serengeti adventure with another day dedicated to exploring the park. With Serengeti Flavour Safaris, you can enjoy an early morning game drive when wildlife is particularly active, return to camp for lunch and relaxation, and head out again for an afternoon game drive. The flexible pace allows you to appreciate the wilderness without rushing, while your experienced guide helps you discover wildlife and landscapes that make every day in the Serengeti different. Main Destination: Serengeti National Park

Enjoy your final sunrise over the Serengeti before travelling towards the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The journey offers more opportunities for wildlife viewing as you leave the endless plains behind and approach the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater. Descend into the crater for an unforgettable game drive across its diverse floor, where open grasslands, acacia woodland, lakes and swamps support an extraordinary concentration of wildlife. Look for wildebeest, zebras, gazelles, buffaloes, lions and, with luck, the endangered black rhino. After exploring the crater, continue to your accommodation in Karatu for the evening. Main Destination: Ngorongoro Crater

After breakfast, head to Lake Manyara National Park for the final wildlife experience of your safari. Despite its compact size, Manyara offers remarkable ecological diversity, from lush groundwater forests to open plains, wetlands and the shallow alkaline lake that gives the park its name. Keep watch for elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, hippos and large troops of baboons, while the lake attracts an impressive variety of waterbirds, including flamingos. You may also encounter the park's famous tree-climbing lions. After a picnic lunch and final game drive, your Serengeti Flavour Safaris guide will drive you to your chosen drop-off point in Arusha, Arusha Airport or Kilimanjaro International Airport, marking the end of your Tanzanian safari.
