10 Days
Tanzania wildlife safari - Zanzibar Beach Holiday
Day 1 Arusha
Pick up from Kilimanjaro airport on arrival and transfer you to Kibo
palace hotel for overnight stay.
Day 2 Manyara
Depart Arusha in the morning for Lake Manyara. Afternoon game drive
, dinner and overnight at Lake Manyara Serena Lodge
Located beneath the cliffs of the Manyara Escarpment, on the edge of
the Rift Valley, Lake Manyara National Park offers varied
ecosystems, incredible bird life, and breathtaking views. Lake
Manyara’s famous tree-climbing lions are another reason to pay this
park a visit. The only kind of their species in the world, they make
the ancient mahogany and elegant acacias their home during the rainy
season, and are a well-known but rather rare feature of the northern
park. In addition to the lions, the national park is
 also home to
the largest concentration of baboons anywhere in the world -- a fact
that makes for interesting game viewing of large families of the
primates..
Day 3 Lake Manyara - Serengeti National Park
After breakfast depart for Serengeti passing through Olduvai Gorge,
the site of Leakey’s family discovery of fossils of human and animal
ancestors dating back to almost two million years. Meals and
overnight at Serengeti Sopa Lodge
Day 4 Serengeti National park
Full day in Serengeti plains in search of the big 5. Morning and
afternoon game drives. Meals and overnight at Serengeti Sopa Lodge
Serengeti is easily Tanzania’s most famous national park, and it’s
also the largest, at 14,763 square kilometres of protected area that
borders Kenya’s Masai Mara Game ParkIt is the Migration for which
Serengeti is perhaps most famous. Over a million wildebeest and
about 200,000 zebras flow south from the northern hills to the
southern plains for the short rains every October and November, and
then swirl west and north after the long rains in April, May and
June. So strong is the ancient instinct to move that no drought,
gorge or crocodile infested river can hold them back. The Wildebeest
travel through a variety of parks, reserves and protected areas and
through a variety of habitat. Join us to explore the different forms
of vegetation and landscapes of the Serengeti ecosystem and meet
some of their most fascinating inhabitants.
Day 5 Ngorongoro Crater
After breakfast a 4wheel drive vehicle will take you 2000ft down to
the crater, enjoy picnic lunch at the crater, ascend back to
Ngorongoro Sopa Lodge for dinner and overnight.
The Ngorongoro Crater is often called ‘Africa’s Eden’ and the ‘8th
Natural Wonder of the World,’ a visit to the crater is a main
drawcard for tourists coming to Tanzania and a definite world-class
attraction. The Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA) is home of
Ngorongoro Crater. It was formed some 2.5 million years ago from a
volcanic mountain sinking due to inactivity, and was initially
thought to be higher than Tanzania’s famous Kilimanjaro. The crater
has evolved into a unique and integral part of Tanzania’s
eco-system. The crater is actually a caldera, measures 22.5 km’s
across and the rim walls stand 600m high. Views from within and from
the rim are breathtaking (as can be seen from the picture). The
crater houses 30,000 animals, and a large variety of birds, which
rarely move from the area due to the availability of water through
wet and dry seasons
