Detailed itinerary
Day 1: Arusha – Serengeti National Park
Meet your driver in Arusha and transfer to the departure zone to meet your fellow travelers. Drive to Serengeti National Park, arriving at the main gate in the late afternoon for quick registration before embarking on an evening game drive en route to your central camp. The Serengeti is world-famous for its massive predator populations and the Great Migration. Settle in for dinner and overnight under the stars.
Stay: Central Serengeti Budget Campsite
Day 2: Serengeti – Ngorongoro Conservation Area
After an early breakfast, pack your gear and depart with a picnic lunch for an intensive six-hour morning game drive through the wildlife-rich Central and Southern Serengeti plains. Exit the park gates around midday, with an optional stopover at the historic Olduvai Gorge Museum. Drive up into the lush highlands of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area for dinner and a relaxing overnight stay.
Stay: Ngorongoro Cliffside Budget Campsite
Day 3: Ngorongoro Crater – Arusha
Enjoy breakfast at the campsite with breathtaking morning views over the crater rim. Descend 600 meters down into the volcanic caldera for an unforgettable six-hour game drive. The crater floor shelters over 25,000 large mammals, providing your best chance to spot the complete Big Five, including rare black rhinos. Ascend in the afternoon and return to Arusha for a drop-off at your pre-booked bed-and-breakfast room at Charity or Ambassador Hotel.
