Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti - from
your intimate safari camps and lodges, located in optimal
game-viewing areas for the best safari experience.

Arusha
– Tarangire
National Park
Today,
you drive to Tarangire National Park, where you spend
the next two days. Located on the southwestern side
of Tarangire National Park, Swala Camp's large tents
are built on raised decks under umbrella acacia trees
overlooking the Gurusi flood plains. The Tarangire
River runs through the center of the park and provides
a year-round supply of water to the animals.
Bird
watching is exceptional in the park's diverse habitats,
from palm groves to acacia woodlands, and you may
spot a bateleur or martial eagle during your stay.
And with a permanent water source, Tarangire is virtually
guaranteed excellent game viewing at all times, including
lion (some tree-climbing!), leopard and a herd of
3,500 elephants. You also may visit a primary school
or beekeeping project. Beekeeping in Mwika Village:
helps conserve forest resources and provides income
for local families. Gijedabung School: accommodates
600 students through donated support.

Day 5
Tarangire
National Park –
Ngorongoro Crater
Daybreak
over the rolling plains is transcendentally lovely as
viewed from our room’s private verandas. Then
we’re off on the next leg of our journey to Ngorongoro,
the eighth wonder of the natural world. Along the way
we drive through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area—a
region created to accommodate the grazing needs of the
Masai people and a unique test of the idea that humans
leading a pastoral lifestyle can coexist with wildlife.
We arrive at Ngorongoro in time for lunch at our stunning
lodge, The Ngorongoro Manor.

Day 6
Ngorongoro Crater
This
morning we descend 2,000 feet into the giant caldera
of this extinct volcano. This magnificent natural
amphitheater contains the largest concentration of
animals in all of Africa. Prides of lion, black rhino
and elephant share this land with the legendary Maasai
tribesmen. Because the grasses are short, game is
easily spotted and can be approached quite closely.
We spend a splendid morning on the floor of the crater
observing wildlife in this ageless World Heritage
Site.

Day 7
Serengeti National Park
The
Serengeti National Park is our destination today.
En route we stop at Olduvai Gorge, the “cradle
of mankind,” where the Leakey family uncovered
the fossil of Homo habilis, who lived 1.75 million
years ago. Arriving at our lodge in time for lunch,
we find ourselves deep in the heart of this famous
migration corridor. With its wide-open spaces, bright
blue skies and creature-filled landscape, over the
next two days we will discover why the fabled Serengeti
typifies the dream of “Old Africa.”
Large
prides of lions laze in the long grasses, plentiful
families of elephants feed on acacia bark and trumpet
to each other across the plains, while giraffes, gazelles,
monkeys, eland and the whole range of African wildlife
present themselves in awe-inspiring numbers. Overnight
at Serengeti Sanctuary Kusini.
