Day 2: Tarangire National Park
On Day 2, you will visit Tarangire National Park, renowned for its massive herds of elephants and the iconic baobab trees that dot the landscape. These ancient trees, some of which are hundreds of years old, serve as a vital water source for elephants during the dry season, as they have a unique ability to extract water from the trees. Additionally, the Tarangire River acts as the park’s only water source in the dry months, attracting large concentrations of wildlife. During this time, you may witness up to 250 elephants gathered around the river, accompanied by numerous other animals, creating a truly spectacular wildlife experience.
Day 3-4: Serengeti National Park (Central West/East)
On Days 3 and 4, you’ll venture into the heart of Serengeti National Park, famously known for its role in the Great Migration. Witness the awe-inspiring sight of vast herds of wildebeest and zebras as they travel across the park in search of fresh grazing grounds. Serengeti is also home to an abundance of predators, including over 4,000 lions, 225 cheetahs, 1,000 leopards, 3,500 hyenas, and hundreds of wild dogs. Along with these magnificent creatures, there are countless other animals to discover. Your expert guide will ensure you experience all the incredible wildlife the Serengeti has to offer. Get ready for an adventure of a lifetime!
Day 5: Ngorongoro Conservation Area (Including Crater)
On Day 5, you will explore the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, one of Africa’s Seven Natural Wonders. This vast caldera, formed over two million years ago by a massive volcanic eruption, now harbors a uniquely fertile landscape that supports an extraordinary variety of wildlife. The crater is home to the highest concentration of animals found anywhere in Africa, including lions, zebras, buffalos, and the endangered black rhinos. As you descend into the crater, you’ll be surrounded by thousands of animals and treated to stunning views of this natural wonder, making it an unforgettable experience.
Day 6: Flight to Zanzibar (Included in the Price)
On Day 6, you’ll take a flight to the exotic spice island of Zanzibar. Upon arrival, your guide will greet you at the airport and transfer you to your hotel. Over the next few days, you’ll have the chance to explore Zanzibar’s white sandy beaches, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and vibrant coral reefs. If you’re a culture enthusiast, don’t miss a visit to Stone Town, where you can immerse yourself in the rich history of this fascinating UNESCO World Heritage site. For food lovers, the spice plantations offer a unique opportunity to sample and learn about the island’s diverse and flavorful local cuisine. A tropical paradise full of beauty and culture awaits you!
Day 7-9: Zanzibar
Your Zanzibar experience on Days 7 to 9 takes you to a true tropical paradise. Picture-perfect white sandy beaches, palm trees swaying in the breeze, and the pristine blue waters of the Indian Ocean surround you. Spend your days lounging on the beach with a refreshing coconut drink in hand, soaking up the sun, or swimming in the crystal-clear waters. Indulge in the island’s delicious Zanzibari cuisine and savor the unique flavors. If you’re craving a bit of adventure, you can explore the beach, the ocean, and the island itself through a variety of exciting activities. We highly recommend the Safari Blue Cruise or a cultural tour of Stone Town for a deeper dive into Zanzibar’s rich history and natural beauty.
Day 10-11: Flight Home from Zanzibar Airport (ZNZ)
On your final day, you’ll have some time to either relax on the beach or take one last stroll around the island, soaking in the beauty of Zanzibar before your departure. A driver will pick you up from your hotel and transfer you to Zanzibar International Airport (ZNZ) for your flight home. Not ready to say goodbye? You can always extend your stay and explore another idyllic paradise island, such as Mnemba, Pemba, or Mafia, for an even longer tropical getaway!
