Day 1
Depending on where you’ll be staying in Zanzibar, a driver will pick you up at 5:00 am and take you to Zanzibar International Airport. You’ll arrive in Arusha at 9 am, where a professional guide will be waiting to greet and brief you on the journey you’re about to embark on. Tarangire National Park is named after the Tarangire River, which flows along its borders. One of its main highlights is undoubtedly the large herds of majestic elephants, which thrive on the abundant food available there, making them larger and stronger than elsewhere! The park’s landscape is also filled with ancient baobab trees, which add a unique and stunning beauty to it. Keep your eyes peeled as you explore the park, and you may also spot lions, leopards, cheetahs, caracals, giraffes, waterbucks, dik-diks, impalas, elands, Grant’s gazelles, baboons, monkeys, and more. Mid-range lodge located 1-2hr drive from Tarangire NP Lunch & dinner (Breakfast not included) Non-alcoholic drinks
Day 2
Meet the Hadzabe community, also known as the bushmen. They are the last hunter-gatherers found in Tanzania’s Rift Valley. The Hadzabe community will welcome you into their ancestral home and go for a hunt in the bush as they search for their daily meal. Later, you’ll return to their community, and they’ll demonstrate their hunting skills as you participate with the young, energetic members of the community. Later, you will visit the Datoga people, skilled metalworkers and farmers, and renowned ironworkers. After the tour, you’ll head back to your hotel for a hot lunch and relaxation. Later in the evening, you'll visit a coffee farm near your lodge, and return to the lodge around late evening for dinner and an overnight. Mid-range lodge located less than 1hr drive from Lake Eyasi All meals included Non-alcoholic drinks
Day 3
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, then ascend the crater rim and exit the Ngorongoro Conservation Area towards Arusha Airport. At the end of the tour, your guide will assist you with the check-in process at the Arusha Airport for your scenic flight back to Zanzibar, once more, for a wonderful farewell. Today, you will leave with not only your bags but also a head full of everlasting memories, incredible experiences, and jaw-dropping stories to share with your friends and family back home.

5.0/5Beginning with our greeting at the airport, Imani Excursions did not disappointment through the entire trip. The owner, Imani himself came out to give us a big welcoming. Our tour guides David and Julius were always cheerful, very knowledge about the areas we visited and the animals we encountered. They knew where to find the animals. I'm still in disbelief about the heart pounding encounters we had with the animals. We came away learning about the animals, the culture and were even taught a little Swahili. Thank you David and Julius!! This is definitely something my family and especially our kids will never forget because of you. Our accommodations were beautiful staying at Manyara's Secret and the Lahia Luxury Tent Lodge. Manyara's Secret was right on the lake with your own individual private pools. The food was delicious and staff were very welcoming and attentive. The whole place was gorgeous. In Lahia, other than the zip up walls you wouldn't even think you were in a tent. The rooms were large, huge bed and overlooked the Serengeti with the two sinks and toilet inside your tent. There was a beautiful private outdoor shower attached to your room. Animals came right up to the lodge. It was incredible walking through zebras on the way to dinner. There are many tour companies in Tanzania. You should not hesitate in booking with Imani and his staff. You can tell that they love their jobs and are in awe with us encountering the animals even after many years of giving tours. This translated to an incredible and unforgettable experience for us. Imani Excursions made us fall in love with Tanzania and if we ever get back there we will definitely book with them again.

Taking a trip to Africa is one of the biggest trips you will take in your life so you want it to go well. When I started the journey I researched so many different safaris and read so many reviews. I kept coming back to Imani Excursions. My only draw back was that they didn’t have a lot of reviews. The reviews they did have were good so I decided to book them. I was nervous not knowing if this is a company I could trust. I can honestly tell you that you will not go wrong booking Imani Excursions. Mike was always quick to respond to all my emails about questions I had about the trip before we arrived. When we arrived we were greeted at the airport with drinks, snacks, gift, and music. What a welcome! Our safari guides Julie’s and David were with us throughout the entire trip. We felt 100% safe and were taken care of well. Imani greeted us at the airport and followed us to our first accommodation to Make sure check it went well. The accommodations we stayed at were absolutely beautiful! At Manyaras secret we had a four bedroom villa with a private full sized swimming pool. The safaris were amazing! We saw so much wildlife and up close. We saw the big 5 and much much more. We saw a lion pack of 7 with babies and all hunting baboons. Elephants rushed in trumpets and all to rescue the baboons. It looked like something you would see at Universal Studios but it was real. We have traveled all over the world and this trip is now our favorite. Look no further and book Imani Excursions. They will give you an amazing trip and take care of you well.

We were well fed and treated like royalty. We saw many many animals, every thing but the cheetah. We saw rhino lions hundreds of wildebeest and Zebra many antelope of different species even a leopard. We couldn't Have asked for more it was well worth the money. The overnight accommodations were amazing I would recommend to anyone thinking of going to Africa
