Day by day.
01DAY 1 Arusha – Ngorongoro Crater

Our driver will pick you from your overnight accommodation in Arusha town in the morning at 5:15 am and make your way to Ngorongoro for a full day exploring the crater floor. The area is world-renowned in its reputation and very small in its scale, so you will see other safari-goers. Don’t let that distract you from the beauty of the place or from the fact that this remains one of the only places on earth where you may see all of the Big Five at once: Lion, Leopard, Bull Elephant, African Buffalo, and Black Rhino. To maximize your time on the crater floor you will enjoy a special packed lunch at a scenic picnic spot by the hippo pool. Your journey will take you through this tremendous landscape that is constantly changing as animals move to and fro in search of pasture, water, or easy prey. In the evening drive back to the crater rim for dinner and overnight.
