LUXURY JOURNEY OF THE WILDEBEEST TOUR
7 DAYS / 6 NIGHTS
Serengeti, Tarangire, Ngorongoro
This is our most iconic itinerary as it represents what our company is all about. During this tour you will have the chance of, not only visiting all the parks of the Northern Safari Circuit of Tanzania (including 3 nights in the Serengeti which is, for us, the ideal timeframe), but also have fascinating cultural experiences in lake Eyasi with the Hadzabe tribe.
- DAY 1:
ARRIVAL-ARUSHA
Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, you will be met and transferred Arusha is a city in East Africa’s Tanzania, located at the base of volcanic Mt. Meru. It’s a gateway to safari destinations and to Africa’s highest peak, 5,895m Mt. Kilimanjaro, lying some 100 kilometers northeast. To the west lies Serengeti National Park, home to wildlife including lions, rhinoceros, giraffes and leopards. The annual migrations feature huge herds of wildebeests crossing its plains.
- DAY 2:
TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK
At 7 am after breakfast, you will be picked up from the hotel by your safari guide and driven to Tarangire National Park. Enjoy the wildlife! Your overnight stay will be at Maramboi Tented Camp. Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be provided. You’ll also get 2 small bottles of water (500ml) per person. Tarangire National Park is almost 3000 sq. km in size and is probably best known for its huge numbers of elephants and baobab trees. The name of the park comes from the Tarangire River which crosses through the park. Tarangire is especially spectacular during the dry season (June – November) as wildlife concentrations rival that of the Serengeti. This is because enormous populations of elephants and other animals are drawn to the Tarangire River as their only source of water. With its varied habitats and permanent water in the Tarangire River, the park is home to over 2000 elephants and 500 bird species.
- DAY 3:
SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK
After breakfast, you will drive to Serengeti National Park where you’ll enjoy game drives. The endless plains of Serengeti are also the setting for the world’s greatest wildlife spectacle, the 1.5 million wildebeest endless migration in search of fresh pastures. Each year this huge herd of wildebeest (along with over 200,000 zebras and gazelles) migrates in a clockwise direction around the Serengeti. They go up to the Maasai Mara in Kenya, then back down to the Serengeti to have their young (over 8000 wildebeest are born a day between mid Feb and mid-March). Each year they trek over 2,500 km and are constantly threatened and followed by some of Africa’s greatest predators. Depending on the time of your visit, your driver guide will be able to share with you where the herd’s current location is at.
- DAY 4:
SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK
The Serengeti National Park is the world’s last great wildlife refuge as it contains an estimated three million large animals. Most of these animals take part in a seasonal migration that is one of nature’s wonders. The area covers 14,763 sq. km and the name Serengeti comes from the Maasai ‘Syringe’, meaning endless plains.
- DAY 5:
SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK – NGORONGORO
After breakfast, you will enjoy a morning game drive. After lunch, you will drive back to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The Central Serengeti offers superb game viewing all year round due to its abundance of resident animals. Specifically, the Seronera River Valley in Central Serengeti is a ‘must see’ on every safari regardless of the specific month of travel. Game viewing in Central Serengeti is at its best during the dry season (June – November), as resident animals are more concentrated in the immediate area due to the lack of water on the plains. Resident herbivores include impala, buffalo, hippo, warthog, topi, hartebeest and giraffe. Resident carnivores include lions and leopards.
- DAY 6:
NGORONGORO CRATER -ARUSHA
Often called the eighth Natural Wonder of the World, the Ngorongoro Crater is the largest intact crater in the world. About 2 million years ago, the Ngorongoro volcano erupted and its walls collapsed. The volcano floor sank to create a natural enclosure with its 600 m tall walls. Now, at over 19 km wide, Ngorongoro Crater is filled with great areas of acacia forest, hippo-filled swamps and open grasslands. These different habitats contain over 30,000 animals, including elephants, warthogs, flamingoes, magnificent birdlife, the rare black rhinoceros and all the predatory cats. The Maasai can also be seen grazing their cattle alongside the buffalo and wildebeest.
- DAY 7:
