With daily game drives in 4x4 vehicles, and fewer safari vehicles around, Tanzania offers you a wilder yet more exclusive experience.
After the thrills and excitement of your safari, why not extend your holiday by adding on a beach stay afterwards. Choose from many stunning destinations, including the idyllic Kenyan coast or perhaps the nearby islands of Zanzibar or Pemba appeal to you – whatever you have in mind, our Destination Specialists are here to help tailor make your perfect itinerary, so please call for more information.

Start your Journey
Arusha
Arrive into Kilimanjaro International Airport where you will be met and transferred to your accommodation for your overnight stay.
Arusha to Lake Manyara
Enjoy your morning at leisure before a safari briefing and lunch. In the afternoon depart Arusha in your private safari vehicle, passing through the Maasai Steppe, an area filled with picturesque African villages and maize, coffee and banana plantations. Journey up through a scenic escarpment to your lodge, perched on the edge of the Rift Valley with distant views over Lake Manyara.
Serengeti
Today you'll enjoy morning and afternoon game drives in Serengeti National Park. For a once in a lifetime experience, early morning hot air balloon safaris can be pre-booked – we highly recommend this for a unique 'bird's eye' game viewing experience, before landing in the beautiful wilderness and enjoying a full bush-style breakfast, complete with fresh coffee, tea, fruits and Champagne.
Serengeti to Ngorongoro
After breakfast you will depart for Ngorongoro, viewing game across the vast Serengeti plains. After a picnic lunch, continue to your lodge set high on the rim of Ngorongoro Crater.
Tarangire to Kilimanjaro Airport
Depart the lodge after breakfast for your return journey back to Arusha. Enjoy lunch in Arusha town centre before returning to Kilimanjaro International Airport for your onward flight.
