Itinerary
Days of Adventure

DAY 1
Arrive in Arusha, Tanzania
Your guide will meet you at Kilimanjaro International Airport via your Delta/KLM flight and escort you to tonight’s accommodations in Arusha.
As local Tanzanians, our guides know the country with unrivaled familiarity, so you’ll be in good hands from the moment you land to the moment you leave.

DAYS 2–3
Eastern Serengeti Nature Refuge
Take a short, scenic flight to a private nature refuge in the eastern Serengeti.
Walk through the refuge by day to experience the land as it was thousands of years ago, listen to a Maasai storyteller share the legends of her people and spot nocturnal wildlife by moonlight on a night drive.

DAYS 4–7
Serengeti National Park
Head for the iconic Serengeti, where acacia trees and granite kopjes dot the seas of waving grass.
The Serengeti offers everyday opportunities to spot Tanzania’s most impressive wildlife—including big cats—and witness dramatic moments in the Great Migration of wildebeest and zebras.

DAYS 8–9
Ngorongoro Crater
Just 10 miles wide, Ngorongoro Crater was formed from a collapsed volcano. It’s now a self-sustaining ecosystem with the densest predator population in all of Africa.
Camping on the Crater’s rim offers you early morning access to its wildlife-filled floor before any other safari-goers.

DAYS 10–11
Lake Manyara National Park / Tarangire National Park
Spend the morning wildlife viewing at Lake Manyara National Park before heading off for Tarangire National Park, where ancient baobab trees tower over some of the largest herds of elephants in all of Africa.
Keep a lookout for the hundreds of bird species Tarangire is known for—and dramatic interactions between predator and prey at the park’s watering holes.

DAYS 12–13
Ngorongoro Highlands
Explore the highlands by day with their lush, rolling hills and indulge at Gibb’s Farm by night.
One of Travel + Leisure’s Best Safari Lodges in Africa, Gibb’s Farm is an 80-year-old working coffee estate offering farm-to-table dining, luxurious rooms with private verandas and optional spa services.

DAY 14
Depart Tanzania
Head to Arusha, where you’ll enjoy a farewell lunch at Arusha Coffee Lodge. Relax in a day room at Arusha Hotel before your flight home.
