Detailed itinerary
Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO), meet your private professional driver-guide and set out on your luxury safari journey. Drive straight to Tarangire National Park, famed for its iconic baobab trees, ancient riverbed landscapes, and huge elephant herds. Enjoy your first thrilling game drive along the Tarangire River, watching for lions, giraffes, and diverse bird species. In the late afternoon, head to Kankari Lodge to check in, relax, and enjoy dinner.
Accommodation: Kankari Lodge
Enjoy breakfast at the lodge before journeying up through the crater highlands and into the world-famous Serengeti National Park. Take in scenic mountain vistas and potential wildlife sightings along the transit route. Arrive on the endless golden plains of the Serengeti in time for an afternoon game drive tracking the Big Five—lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino—alongside large herds of wildebeest and zebras. Later, check in at Serengeti Shuhudia camp for an evening of luxury, wilderness views, and a fine dinner.
Accommodation: Shuhudia camp
Spend an entire day discovering the vast, wildlife-rich ecosystems of the Serengeti in your private 4×4 vehicle. Track apex predators on the hunt across the plains, observe hippo pods in the river channels, and witness sprawling herds across the savannah. To maximize your time in the wilderness, your guide will set up a fresh picnic lunch in the field. Return to Shuhudia camp in the late afternoon to unwind, take in the sunset, and enjoy dinner.

Begin with an early morning game drive across the Serengeti plains before departing for the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Descend 2,000 feet into the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater floor for an incredible game viewing experience inside this natural amphitheater. Scan the crater floor for rare black rhinos, flamingos along Lake Magadi, lions, and grazing zebras. In the late afternoon, ascend to the crater rim and check in at Ngorongoro Safari Lodge for dinner accompanied by panoramic crater views.
Accommodation: Safari Lodge
After breakfast, drive to Lake Manyara National Park, famous for its rare tree-climbing lions, large baboon troops, and lush groundwater forests.
