Tarangire National Park, Tanzania
4-Day Marvellous Affodarble Tanzania Safari
Overview
This is a 4-day group tour that takes you around the famous northern circuit parks. Serengeti National Park is the largest and most famous, as over a million wildebeest migrate yearly alongside over 250,000 zebras. The Ngorongoro Crater is a highlight, with its beautiful landscapes, surreal view of the crater, and ease of seeing animals on the crater floor. Tarangire National Park, compared to Serengeti, is a much small park famous for the large number of elephants roaming the area.

Day 1
Arusha to Tarangire National Park
Distance: 30km to 50km Non–game viewing time: 2 hours We will pick you up from your hotel, and after familiarising yourself with the guide, chef, and other clients on the tour, we will drive to Tarangire National Park (a 2-hour drive), famous for its diverse landscapes. The park is mainly known for its abundance of ancient baobab trees and the largest concentration of elephants in the whole country. It provides unique chances to observe the interaction between elephant families. We will do a game drive through the park depending on where they have reported sightings of animals. Lions, cheetahs, and leopards are harder to spot, but giraffes, wildebeest, and zebras are plentiful throughout the park. Later, we will go to the Tarangire River picnic site and enjoy the beautiful view of the river and animals while having lunch. Keep an eye out for small monkeys and baboons trying to scare you off your lunch, but they are harmless, and you have nothing to worry about.

Day 2
Serengeti National Park
Distance: 145km After breakfast, depart for Serengeti National Park via the beautiful high-lying farmland of Karatu and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Leaving the highlands behind, we descend into the heart of wild Africa—the Serengeti National Park—with its endless plains, rolling into the distance as far as the eye can see. Then head to the central park area, known as the Seronera area, one of the richest wildlife habitats in the park, featuring the Seronera River, which provides a valuable water source to this area and therefore attracts wildlife well representative of most of the Serengeti’s species. Arrive in time for lunch and enjoy an afternoon game drive in the Serengeti National Park. Inside Serengeti NP All meals included Non-alcoholic drinks

Day 3
Serengeti National Park to Ngorongoro Crater
Distance: 145km Non–game viewing time: 2 to 4 hours Seronera, Serengeti National Park. After an early breakfast, we will go on an early game drive to see a lot of animals until the afternoon, when we will head to camp for lunch and packing up. While doing a game drive, we exit the Serengeti heading to Simba campsite (a 2-hour drive) and near the rim of Ngorongoro Crater. Note: Animals can be spotted in the campsites. Inside Serengeti NP All meals included Non-alcoholic drinks
Destination: Serengeti National Park Stay: Budget camping Inside Serengeti NP Meals: All meals included Non-alcoholic drinks
Day 4
Ngorongoro Crater to Arusha
Distance: 210km Non–game viewing time : 3 to 4 hours After breakfast, we will descend over 600 meters into the crater to view wildlife. Supported by a year-round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro Conservation Area supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque area is its dense population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs, and the ever-elusive leopard, which sometimes requires a trained eye to spot. We will visit Lake Magadi, a large, shallow, alkaline lake in the southwestern corner, which is one of the main features of the crater. A large number of hippos, flamingos, and other water birds can usually be seen here. Late afternoon transfer, we transfer you to Arusha and drop you off at a preferred hotel.

We did the Manyara Gane Drive and it was perfect from beginning to end. The guide was a great tracker leading us to a range of animals and gave us all the background information. Skdo parked in good spots to get pictures. 10 out of 10.

Beyond expectations
From day 1, Antonia was super helpful helping us plan this trip. She answered my million questions and explained everything very detailed to make sure my trip was just as I wanted and kept communication going the whole time. Since we arrived in Tanzania the service we received from Serengeti African tours was 5 stars. Our accommodation was super comfortable, we had great food every day and all the staff always super friendly. Our tour guide Gift was the best, he knew all about the animals and was always finding the spots to get us the best views. Super helpful at all times and always encouraging us to ask the right questions and making us remember the animals we saw. Overall everything was beyond expectations and we would do it again a million times. Asante sana.

Amazing
As nature lovers, this safari has been a turning point in our lives. A unique and unforgettable experience where the animals come to see you, not the other way around—this is when you truly realize what real freedom is. It’s true that luck plays a role, but having such an experienced guide like Mathew allowed us to enjoy the trip to the fullest and have truly incredible encounters. My favorite moment was when a pregnant leopard calmly decided to visit us right next to the 4x4. Situations like that only happen when the driver knows how to handle the vehicle and always maintains respect for wildlife. He also explained every detail about the parks and was very open with us—we had a great time! A 100% recommended experience.

Perfectly organized tour. The office staff was always available. Our guide, Rashid, was wonderful, extremely knowledgeable, and always smiling. We saw every type of animal imaginable. An unforgettable experience.
