During the 2-hour road transfer, enjoy scenic views of the plain grassland, spotting traditional Masai houses and cattle being herded. Upon arrival, you will check-in and depart on a game drive and enjoy what the park offers. Tarangire is famous for its significant concentration of elephants and ancient baobab trees that spread across the park. You will likely encounter a variety of animals, including lions, leopards, buffaloes, zebras, wildebeest, cheetahs, tree-climbing pythons, and many birds. In the afternoon, pause for a picnic lunch before exploring until evening. After the game drive, you will retreat to your accommodation to relax, have dinner, and overnight.
Day 3 - Tarangire - Serengeti National Park
After breakfast, you will board your safari vehicle to begin your memorable trip to Serengeti. The 4-hour drive will take you through the Ngorongoro Crater highlands. Upon arrival in Serengeti, you will have lunch, check-in, and depart on a game drive. Serengeti is known for its annual migration, during which exceptionally large numbers of wildebeest, zebras, and antelopes move through the area. You will be taken to wildlife-rich spots in the park, where you can encounter lions, leopards, wildebeests, giraffes, hippos, gazelles, zebras, buffaloes, cheetahs, and much more.

Day 4 - Serengeti - Ngorongoro
Enjoy an early morning game drive in Serengeti today! Start before sunrise by boarding your safari vehicle with your packed meals and set off for the game drive. At this time, most animals are active due to the cool temperature, so you are likely to spot a great deal of game, including a predator on a hunt. Afterwards, proceed with an en route game drive towards Ngorongoro Crater highlands and enjoy lunch on the way at the picnic site in Serengeti. You will arrive at your lodge in Ngorongoro in the late evening for relaxation and overnight.

After enjoying a hearty breakfast, you will board the safari vehicle and begin your journey descending into the crater. Ngorongoro is famed as a wildlife refuge and is the largest intact caldera in the world. A game drive in Ngorongoro provides the best opportunity to see the Big Five on a single game drive! The lush plains of the lake-studded crater floor and the towering 600m (2,000ft) cliffs that enclose it on all sides make for a breathtaking panorama, making the crater one of the most photographed places in the world. In the afternoon, you will pause for a picnic lunch at the hippo pool picnic site before proceeding with the game drive.
