Nairobi to Lake Nakuru

Day 1

Nairobi to Lake Nakuru

Early morning pick up in Nairobi and then drive to Lake Nakuru National Park, across the equator, where lies the rift valley’s most famous lake. Known all over the world for its flamingoes, it's alkaline and is recognized as being one of the natural wonders of the world. Lake Nakuru is now a rhino sanctuary, harboring a population of over 40 black and over 60 white rhinos, but the flamingos, of course, have always been the main attraction. At times there may be almost 2 million flamingos in residence, forming a stunningly beautiful deep pink band around the edge of the lakeshore. Arrival in time for lunch then afternoon game drive. Mid-range lodge located inside Lake Nakuru NP (Kenya) Lunch & dinner (Breakfast not included) Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

Lake Nakuru to Masai Mara

Day 2

Lake Nakuru to Masai Mara

An early morning drive to Maasai Mara National Reserve. It holds on as one of the few places left on earth where wildlife still lives comparatively undisturbed, in the numbers that once roamed the plains and forests of Africa. As the northern tip of the vast Serengeti ecosystem, the Mara hosts the spectacular seasonal migration of many thousands of wildebeest, zebras, and attendant predators. Arrive in time for lunch followed by an afternoon game drive. Mid-range tented camp located inside Masai Mara NR (Kenya) All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

Masai Mara

Day 3

Masai Mara

One full day in the Maasai Mara with a flexible schedule and unlimited mileage. After breakfast, we have a full-day game drive with packed lunch provided. The reserve is well known for its black-manned lions as well as its abundant resident wildlife and it’s one of the few places where it's possible to see the Big Five during a morning's game drive. Many of the cheetahs are so tame they seek shelter from the hot sun under one's vehicle and several even climb onto the roof to get a better view of prospective prey. For the bird enthusiast, almost 500 species have been recorded: among these, 16 species of eagle, plus many hawks and falcons, 6 species of vultures, 8 species of storks, 4 of bustard (including the Kori bustard, the world's heaviest flying bird), and 9 species of sunbirds.

Masai Mara to Serengeti

Day 4

Masai Mara to Serengeti

We will initiate the day with an early morning game drive in Maasai Mara while driving out of the National Reserve. After border formalities, drive to the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. It will be a long day of driving but the game drives going in and out of the parks can be surprisingly incredible. However, we always recommend flying from one park to the other so that you can have more time to go on Safari. Alternatively, you can add an extra day to visit Lake Victoria, halfway between the two parks.

Serengeti National Park

Day 5

Serengeti National Park

The famous Serengeti National Park, home to the Great Migration. Serengeti means "endless plains" in Kiswahili and this 6,900 sq. mile (18,000 sq. km) park is inhabited by more than 2 million large animals including more than a million wildebeest, hundreds of thousands of plains zebras, and Thomson's gazelles, large predators including lions, cheetahs, and hyenas. Many smaller animals like rock hyrax or monkeys also inhabit the area along with nearly 500 species of birds. On the second day, after breakfast, enjoy a full day in Serengeti National Park (morning and afternoon game drives). Luxury tented camp located inside Central Serengeti NP (Tanzania) All meals included All drinks (Except for spirits/liquor)

Serengeti National Park to Ngorongoro Conservation Area

Day 7

Serengeti National Park to Ngorongoro Conservation Area

Today you will wake up very early to do an early morning safari, to spot the animals when they are more active and also to have a fantastic sun rise in front of you. The sunrise in the african Savannah is one of the most beautiful experiences one can have. In the afternoon, transfer to Ngorongoro, the 8th natural wonder of the world. The crater has the greatest concentration of wild life in the planet. It contains a river, several swamps, a soda lake that, from the top, looks like steam, full of flamingoes, a forest and open plains. The large bull elephants that reside here have extremely large tusk, due to the rich mineral content of the volcanic soil and its grasses. They are the most incredible elephants you'll ever see in your life. Dinner and overnight at the selected tented camp or lodge. Luxury lodge located on the crater rim of Ngorongoro Crater (Tanzania) All meals included All drinks (Except for spirits/liquor)

Ngorongoro Crater to Lake Manyara

Day 8

Ngorongoro Crater to Lake Manyara

We will start the day very early and descend into the crater floor for an incredible morning of wildlife in one of the most stunning places on Earth. After the game drive, there will be time for a picnic lunch near the beautiful hippo Lake. After lunch, we will have time for a short game drive and then ascend the crater and exit Ngorongoro Conservation Area towards Lake Manyara (2h). This park has become famous for the tree-climbing lions and the flamingos on the lakeshore. The game drives are done along the shore of the lake, providing incredible views of giraffes and buffalos in the foreground with the lake, flamingos and flat plains on the horizon. You'll have great photo opportunities and you can also do a walking and night safari. Dinner and overnight at the selected tented camp or lodge.

Lake Manyara to Amboseli

Day 9

Lake Manyara to Amboseli

After breakfast, morning game drive in the park with picnic lunch. Although only 205 sq. miles in size this enchanting park is noted for its beauty and incredibly lush acacia forest of giant fig and mahogany trees, which are home to troops of baboons and blue monkeys. The park is also home to large numbers of buffalos, giraffes, elephants, impalas and it has a Hippo Lake, where large numbers of hippos usually gather. Well known for its birds (over 400 different species), Lake Manyara is one of the few places where you'll be able to see the ground hornbill and the crested eagle. Afternoon transfer to Amboseli (5h). Amboseli National Park is situated south of Nairobi. Most of the park consists of a dry, ancient lake bed and fragile grassland with patches of acacia woodland, while in the southern area there are a number of small rocky volcanic hills. Dinner and overnight at the selected tented camp or lodge. Mid-range tented camp located just outside Amboseli NP (Kenya) All meals included Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

Day 10

Amboseli National Park

Early rise for good views of Mount Kilimanjaro before clouds build up over the summit with packed lunch provided. Despite its changing habitat, Amboseli National Park is possibly the best wildlife area in the whole Africa to experience elephants at close range. Left unharassed by poachers, elephants feeding and bathing in the swamps must form the highlights of any Safari.

Day 11

Amboseli to Nairobi

Go on a morning game drive in Amboseli. An optional visit to a Maasai village can be planned also. A visit reveals the singing and dancing that are part of their daily lives and sacred rituals. A glimpse into their homes and social structure is a poignant experience. We will leave early in the afternoon and drive to Nairobi, arriving at about 5 pm. We will transfer you to your hotel or the airport. Breakfast & lunch (Dinner not included) Drinking water (Other drinks not included)

Perfect Safari

We were genuinely happy to have loved our experience with Soul of Tanzania. Congratulations to the excellent, competent, and always helpful guides, and for the excellent organization of the trip. Your guides have a feeling and an eye for spotting an animal from a long distance. FANTASTIC. They know how to create a very friendly atmosphere with the client. It's a good thing we went during the "off-season," because at one point there were almost 50 jeeps "on top" of one animal. The staff, as well as the service at the accommodations, was always impeccable. It's good to feel that our money was well spent on this trip, which will certainly remain in our memories forever. This victory is something no one can take away from you or from us. Our children and grandchildren say they want to come on the next safari too. Thank you very much.

Amazing

We just finished a five full-day tour in Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti. Our guide was Julieth and things couldn’t have been better: great weather, so many animals, and the best guide ever. We had so many amazing experiences that were driven by Julieth’s experience and knowledge. We learned a ton, took hundreds of pictures of animals, and made memories that will stay with us for a lifetime. The only thing we would add is that late January is the perfect time due to all of the animal babies and fewer tourists. Thank you Soul of Tanzania and especially Julieth!

Trip of a lifetime.

We had an amazing experience!! We did the 8 day Tanzania tour. We spent time at Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorogoro Crater and Lake Eyasi. We had Sammy (Samwel) as our guide. He was the best!!! Funny, kind, informative and helpful in every way. We felt like family. We asked to change our last day at the last minute and he drove us around Arusha and we got to see where he grew up and MT Kilimanjaro in the distance. He was great at spotting animals and we saw the big 5!!! We still yell “Buuuuusshhh Chickens” to this day. Only thing I’d change is skip Lake Eyasi and spend another day in the crater.

Perfect holiday with the perfect driver!!!

Glorious 3 week holiday in Zanzibar and Northern Tanzania! After not a few forays into East Africa this was the winner ... and all thanks to the people behind the scenes helping us plan like Manuel ... and the driver who rules them all ... JAMES KAAYA!!! The variety of places we wanted to go and the experiences we hoped to have all came to life seamlessly, safely and was nothing short of good times with plenty of laughs! The historic walks through the sites of Zanzibar, the water activities of the ephemeral Indian Ocean, and trek through the monkey-filled forests were a solid introduction to the country. However the Star of the Show was the safari adventures with James at the wheel! He possessed an uncanny ability to spot animals from far and near, to make predictions where animals would be when all the other drivers seemed to be clustered in the wrong spots and to get us within what seemed like touching distance of each and every animal of the National Parks and Conservation Areas! We easily ticked every box of our hit list. Lions exceeded 100, cheetahs and leopards by the dozen, gnus in the thousands. James seemed to know people in every park, hamlet, and nondescript backroad we traversed endlessly both giving and receiving tips on where the hot spots were that day. We passed not a few breakdowns, drivers and despondent looking tourists stuck in muddy ravines and wheels spinning along lakeshores, but our James navigated these obstacles effortlessly, patiently and always kept us safe! Not only did he never get lost but on several other occasions helped other drivers find their accomadations! He seemed to have a built-in GPS! We really felt like we won the Driver Lottery this time! Well played Mr James Kaaya! And thank you Unlimited Expeditions - Soul of Tanzania! We shall return!
