12 Day Tented Camp Safari And Zanzibar

Safari in Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Zanzibar can range widely in cost – depending on how many days, how many people, the level of luxury you’re looking for and many other factors. But we know it always helps to get a ballpark understanding of price. The cost is $3950 per person. Price per person varies depending on group sizes. DAY 1: ARRIVE IN TANZANIA. Arrive anytime at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO). There will be a private transfer arranged from the Airport to Arusha at Lake Duluti lodge, where the rest of the day is at leisure. We stay at Lake Duluti lodge, which is beautifully located on the slope of Mt. Meru and is a perfect place to prepare for your adventure. We will gather in the evening at the hotel for a pre-safari briefing and an equipment check. Dinner and overnight at Lake Duluti Lodge. DAY 2: GAME DRIVE IN TARANGIRE NATIONAL PARK: Today we drive to Tarangire National Park, for excellent game viewing. Tarangire is a small park which offers some excellent sights. Generally, in the dry seasons Tarangire comes alive as wildlife and birdlife congregate on the Tarangire River, which is a permanent source of water. We spend the night in our lodge beautifully set inside the park with stunning views and a unique atmosphere. In the late afternoon, we make a short journey from the park to our special lodge. Dinner and overnight at Kirurumu Lodge: Full board. DAY 3: GAME DRIVE IN SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK: We head towards the Serengeti National Park. En route there is an opportunity to visit Olduvai Gorge. It is within this steep-sided ravine that Louis and Mary Leakey made some of the world’s most important archaeological discoveries in the 1950s. Here in a small museum, we are able to see evidence of our ancestors that have been dated back 2.5 million years. After lunch, we drive into the Serengeti itself and the rest of the afternoon is spent game viewing in the vast plains that are broken only by stands of acacia trees and the occasional kopje. In December, January and February we will normally meet the migration with large herds of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle. There are always plenty of resident animals, such as giraffe, buffalo, and elephant, and many large predators such as lion, cheetah, and leopard. We return to our special tented camp for the night. Dinner and overnight at Serengeti Lobo Wildlife Lodge: Full board. DAY 4: GAME DRIVE IN SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK: We have another full day in this wonderful park, rising early to make the most of our time. Our guides will choose the best spotting locations for the time of year; we can spend time at the Hippo pool watching these majestic animals laze about in the cool water happily living alongside the crocodiles, watch a big pride of lions, be in the middle of the migration, sometimes surrounded by wildebeest, sometimes by zebras, which travel with the wildebeest. We journey from the wide open plains to the kopjes: these volcanic rocky outcrops provide protection and shelter for a wide variety of animals and from the top we can look out across the vast grasslands of the Serengeti. This diverse and interesting landscape will provide us with the ultimate in game viewing, we will hopefully see all of the plain games; elephants, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, lions and it you are lucky the elusive leopard and cheetah, as well as huge amounts of interesting bird life, from the elegant secretary birds to the flightless ostrich. We return to our special tented camp for the night. Dinner and overnight at Serengeti Lobo Wildlife Lodge: Full board. DAY 5: SERENGETI TO NGORONGORO CRATER: We start the day with an early morning game drive before heading to Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Ngorongoro is a special place in that it is a Conservation Area, not a National Park; this means that the whole area is managed for both the animals and the local Masai people who graze their cattle alongside the indigenous wildlife. During the drive in Ngorongoro we have a chance to glimpse something of the Masai way of life. After stopping at the entrance gate, where there is a chance to learn more about this fascinating volcanic landscape, we will drive around the rim of the Crater itself, and from here we can look down and see the herd of wildebeest or buffalos. Finally we descend into the crater. The crater walls provide a natural sanctuary for the animals, which means there is plenty to see: lions, elephants, buffalo, rhino and leopard (if you are lucky).

After lunch, we drive into the Serengeti itself and the rest of the afternoon is spent game viewing in the vast plains that are broken only by stands of acacia trees and the occasional kopje. In December, January and February we will normally meet the migration with large herds of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle. There are always plenty of resident animals, such as giraffe, buffalo, and elephant, and many large predators such as lion, cheetah, and leopard. We return to our special tented camp for the night. Accommodation at Serengeti Heritage Tented Camp: Full board. DAY 4: ANOTHER DAY GAME DRIVE IN SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK: We have another full day in this wonderful park, rising early to make the most of our time. Our guides will choose the best spotting locations for the time of year; we can spend time at the Hippo pool watching these majestic animals laze about in the cool water happily living alongside the crocodiles, watch a big pride of lions, be in the middle of the migration, sometimes surrounded by wildebeest, sometimes by zebras, which travel with the wildebeest. We journey from the wide-open plains to the kopjes: these volcanic rocky outcrops provide protection and shelter for a wide variety of animals and from the top, we can look out across the vast grasslands of the Serengeti. This diverse and interesting landscape will provide us with the ultimate in game viewing, we will hopefully see all of the plain games; elephants, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, lions and if you are lucky the elusive leopard and cheetah, as well as huge amounts of the interesting birdlife, from the elegant secretary birds to the flightless ostrich. We return to our special tented camp for the night. Accommodation at Serengeti Heritage Tented Camp: Full board. DAY 5: SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK TO NGORONGORO CRATER: Morning game drive in Serengeti; afternoon drive to Ngorongoro Conservation Area. We have a final game drive in the Serengeti before heading back into the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and to the rim of the Ngorongoro Crater where we spend the night. Accommodation at Ngorongoro Kirurumu Tented Camp: Full board. DAY 6: GAME DRIVE IN NGORONGORO CRATER: We start the day with an early morning game drive before heading to Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Ngorongoro is a special place in that it is a Conservation Area, not a National Park; this means that the whole area is managed for both the animals and the local Masai people who graze their cattle alongside the indigenous wildlife. During the drive-in Ngorongoro, we have a chance to glimpse something of the Masai way of life. After stopping at the entrance gate, where there is a chance to learn more about this fascinating volcanic landscape, we will drive around the rim of the Crater itself, and from here we can look down and see the herd of wildebeest or buffalos. Finally, we descend into the crater. The crater walls provide a natural sanctuary for the animals, which means there is plenty to see: lions, elephants, buffalo, rhino, and leopard (if you are lucky). The only animal you won’t see here is a giraffe, whose long legs are unable to cope with the steeps sides of the crater. In the late afternoon, we travel back to our special tented camp. Accommodation at Lake Manyara Kirurumu Tented Camp: Full board. DAY 7: GAME DRIVE IN LAKE MANYARA NATIONAL PARK: We depart from your lodge and proceed to Lake Manyara National Park. Although small in size, this park is one of the most diverse reserves in the country. Lake Manyara covers two-thirds of the park. At the backdrop is the wall of the Great Rift Valley, before which lies the groundwater forest, areas of open grassland near the lake foreshore, and the Soda Lake. We enjoy a picnic lunch in this area, which consists of open grassy areas, hot springs, dense woodlands, and steep mountainsides. Lake Manyara National Park is a birding paradise that has more than 350 species of bird. The park is also famed for its unique and elusive tree-climbing lions. In the late afternoon, we drive back to our special tented camp. Accommodation at Lake Manyara Kirurumu Tented Camp: Full board. DAY 8: CULTURAL TOUR IN MTO WA UMBU: Today we will visit Maasai boma in Mto Wa Umbu before we drive back to Arusha. Get an inside look at the homes and exquisite crafts of Mto Wa Mbu’s many tribes. Visitors will get a chance to meet locals and learn about banana beer, Makonde woodcarvings, and the tribal painting techniques; the village provides a great introduction to everyday life in Africa. In the afternoon we drive back to Arusha. Accommodation at Masailand Safari Lodge: Bed, Dinner, and Breakfast included. DAY 9: ARUSHA TO KILIMANJARO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT: Morning breakfast then drives to Kilimanjaro airport for the flight back home or to the other tour. 9 DAYS BEST TANZANIA HAKUNA MATATA SAFARI  INCLUDES: 1.

Pricing is normally based on the number of people and the options desired for the safari. For smaller groups pricing can be similar and sometimes less expensive than regular expedition prices listed on the website. DAY 1: GAME DRIVE IN LAKE MANYARA NATIONAL PARK. This morning we drive from Arusha to Lake Manyara National Park, the lakeshore teems with birds and the park is famous for its elusive tree-climbing lions. There is also a surprising number of large mammals and the striking cliffs of the Rift escarpment form a dramatic backdrop to our first experience of the region's magnificent wildlife. Dinner and overnight Lake Manyara Kirurumu Tented Camp: Full board. DAY 2: GAME DRIVE IN SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK. Drive through Ngorongoro Conservancy; afternoon game drives in Serengeti. En route through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, we stop to visit Olduvai Gorge. It is within this steep-sided ravine that Louis and Mary Leakey made some of the world's most important archaeological discoveries in the 1950s. Here is a small museum, we are able to see evidence of our ancestors that have been dated back to 2.5 million years ago. Then we head into the Serengeti National Park arriving after lunch. The rest of the afternoon is spent game viewing amongst the vast plains that are broken only by acacia trees and the occasional kopje (rock formation). In January and February, we will normally meet the migration with large herds of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle. There are always plenty of resident animals, such as giraffe, buffalo, and elephant, as well as many large predators such as lion, cheetah, and leopard. Dinner and overnight at Serengeti Acacia Tented Lodge: Full board. DAY 3: ANOTHER FULL DAY GAME DRIVE IN SERENGETI NATIONAL PARK.

This diverse and interesting landscape will provide us with the ultimate in game viewing, we will hopefully see all of the plain game; elephants, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, lions and if you are lucky the elusive leopard and cheetah, as well as huge amounts of interesting bird life such as the elegant secretary birds and the flightless ostrich.

Dinner and overnight at Ngorongoro Kirurumu Tented Lodge: Full board. DAY 5: GAME DRIVE IN NGORONGORO CRATER. Sleeping near the Ngorongoro Crater means that we are one of the first vehicles to descend into the caldera. Ngorongoro is a Conservation Area rather than a national park. This means that the whole area is managed for both the animals and the local Maasai people who graze their cattle alongside the indigenous wildlife. During the drive down to the crater floor, we will gain a glimpse of the Maasai's lifestyle.

DAY 3: GAME DRIVE IN LAKE MANYARA NATIONAL PARK. Today we drive to Lake Manyara National Park for a full day of game drives.

The lakeshore at Manyara teems with birdlife, and while you are looking for the birds, you might spot one of the elusive tree-climbing lions. There are a surprising number of other large mammals and the striking cliffs on the Rift escarpment form a dramatic backdrop.

Here is a small museum, we are able to see evidence of our ancestors that have been dated back 2.5 million years. After lunch, we drive into the Serengeti itself and the rest of the afternoon is spent game viewing in the vast plains that are broken only by stands of acacia trees and the occasional kopje. In December, January and February we will normally meet the migration with large herds of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle.

We journey from the wide-open plains to the kopjes: these volcanic rocky outcrops provide protection and shelter for a wide variety of animals and from the top, we can look out across the vast grasslands of the Serengeti. This diverse and interesting landscape will provide us with the ultimate in game viewing, we will hopefully see all of the plain games; elephants, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, lions and if you are lucky the elusive leopard and cheetah, as well as huge amounts of the interesting birdlife, from the elegant secretary birds to the flightless ostrich.
