After breakfast, depart for Tarangire National Park via Arusha town. You may stop for any last-minute purchases before heading to the park. The drive along the Northern Highway crosses the Masai Steppe and local villages, taking about 2 to 3 hours. Upon arrival, start your game drive in Tarangire, the fifth largest national park in Tanzania, known for its large elephant population and majestic baobab trees. Expect to see herds of elephants, wildebeest, giraffes, zebras, warthogs, hippos, and the rare species of Greater Kudu, Fringed-eared Oryx, and Ashy Starling. Bird watchers will delight in over 400 species of birds. Predators such as lions, hyenas, cheetahs, jackals, and leopards also roam the park. After an exhilarating day, head to your lodge for dinner and overnight stay.
Following breakfast, drive to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and descend 600 meters into the crater floor for an exciting day of game drives. The Ngorongoro Crater, often referred to as one of the world’s natural wonders, supports a diverse array of wildlife due to its consistent water supply and rich fodder. Expect to see herds of wildebeest, elephants, elands, zebras, hippos, buffalo, and numerous antelopes. The rare black rhino and the Big Five can also be spotted. Enjoy a packed lunch on the crater floor amidst this remarkable landscape. After an extensive game drive, return to Arusha in the early evening.
