Day By Day Itinerary:
Day 1: Arrival in Arusha – Welcome to Tanzania
Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you’ll be met by your personal guide and transferred to your luxury lodge in Arusha. Nestled among lush gardens or coffee plantations, your accommodation offers a peaceful introduction to Tanzania. Take the evening to relax, enjoy a welcome dinner, and rest ahead of your safari adventure.
Day 2: Arusha to Tarangire National Park
After breakfast, depart for Tarangire National Park, known for its elephant herds and iconic baobab trees. Your private game drive offers opportunities to spot lions, giraffes, zebras, and a variety of birds in a dramatic savannah landscape. In the evening, retire to a luxury lodge or tented camp near the park where you’ll enjoy sundowners and a fine three-course dinner.
Day 3: Tarangire to Serengeti National Park
Today you journey toward the Serengeti, passing through the Ngorongoro Highlands and Maasai territory. Upon entering the Serengeti, game viewing begins immediately as you traverse the vast plains on the way to your luxury tented camp. The evening brings a fireside dinner and a night under canvas, with all the comforts of a boutique hotel in the wild.
Day 4: Full Day Game Drive in Serengeti
Spend a full day immersed in the Serengeti’s wildlife-rich ecosystem. Morning and afternoon game drives give you the chance to witness predators on the hunt, elephants roaming the plains, and — during the season — the Great Migration. Between drives, enjoy gourmet meals and a peaceful break back at camp. Your luxury suite offers a front-row seat to the magic of the African bush.
Day 5: Serengeti to Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast and a final Serengeti game drive, head toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Along the way, stop to appreciate the region’s shifting landscapes and wildlife. Arrive at a luxury lodge perched on the crater rim, where you’ll relax with sweeping views and enjoy a refined dinner in the cool highland air.
Day 6: Ngorongoro Crater Safari – Flight to Zanzibar
Early in the morning, descend into the Ngorongoro Crater for a half-day safari. The crater’s unique ecosystem is home to rhinos, lions, hippos, and flamingos, making it one of the best places in Africa for game viewing. After a picnic lunch inside the crater, you’ll drive to the airstrip and board a domestic flight to Zanzibar. Upon arrival, transfer to your beachfront resort where you’ll check in and unwind by the Indian Ocean.
Day 7: Full Day Relaxation in Zanzibar
Spend your day at leisure enjoying the white sand beaches and warm turquoise waters of Zanzibar. Whether you choose to relax by the pool, indulge in a spa treatment, or explore the island’s spice farms and Stone Town, the day is yours. Your luxury resort offers all the amenities for a restful tropical escape.
Day 8: Departure from Zanzibar
Enjoy a leisurely breakfast and one final stroll along the beach before checking out. Depending on your flight schedule, you’ll be transferred to Zanzibar Airport for your departure. This marks the end of your unforgettable Tanzania safari and beach adventure.
