Trip itinerary

Day 1

On arrival into Kilimanjaro Airport you will be met and transferred to Arusha. (D)

Accommodation: 1 night Arusha Serena Hotel.

Nestled at the foot of the wooded slopes of Mount Meru, this unique hotel in Arusha Tanzania stands amid coffee plantations on the shores of tranquil Lake Duluti. Designed to echo the traditional style of the colonial coffee farm, which originally stood on this site, Arusha Serena Hotel offers a range of tastefully presented cottage-styled rooms set amid extensive landscaped grounds.

Rooms and suites are presented in the style of stone-built cottages, which are grouped in clusters around a flower-filled central ‘village square'. Spacious and elegantly presented in classic country-house style, the accommodation features marble bathrooms, double French doors leading out into the gardens, leaded windows, a stylish work or vanity area, and large and comfortable beds.

Day 2

After breakfast, drive to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The afternoon is at leisure. (BLD)

Accommodation: 2 nights Ngorongoro Serena Lodge.

Known as ‘the eighth wonder of the world' the Ngorongoro Crater is one of Africa's best-known wildlife arenas. A UNESCO World Heritage site, it offers a unique biosphere, which has remained virtually unchanged since the dawn of time. Deep within the Crater, enclosed by towering walls, an abundance of wildlife wanders the plains, lakes and forests of ‘the land that time forgot’. This unique lodge clings to the rim of the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater, one of the largest and most perfect volcanic crater’s on earth. The lodge, with 75 rock built rooms with panoramic views, is built from local river stone and camouflaged with indigenous vines. Designed to blend completely into the landscape, it is entirely invisible from the floor of the Crater 600 metres below.

Day 3

This morning after breakfast drive to the Ngorongoro Crater Park entry and descend to the floor below. Covering over 250 sq kms of land this is the home to the rare black rhino, lion, elephant, cheetah and great herds of buffalo, antelope, warthog and wildebeest. Explore the forest and Lake Makati areas where you may see flamingos and open savannah. Enjoy a picnic lunch, returning to the lodge late afternoon. (BLD)

Day 4

This morning after breakfast drive through the hilly landscape and onto the plains of the Serengeti. Visit the Ol'Duvai Gorge enroute, site of the famous archaeological finds by the Leakey family.

Scenically located in a glade, known as ‘the place of the klipspringer' (mbuzi mawe), and guarded by three million year-old granite towers, this luxury tented-camp in the Serengeti is unique. Cleverly located on one of the main annual migration corridors for over one million wildebeest, half a million zebras and gazelles, and their accompanying cast of predators it is also located at the very epicentre of one of the world's most famous national parks.
