Day by Day

Day 1 -Arrival Day

You will be picked up from the airport by a Safari Peak representative and driven to your accommodation in Arusha where you will overnight, relax, and prepare in anticipation of the adventures to come.
Accommodation: Green Mountain Hotel /Outpost Lodge

Day 2: Arusha to Lake Manyara

You will be met by your private guide and vehicle and driven to Lake Manyara, arriving with plenty of time for an afternoon game drive. Located beneath the cliffs of the Manyara Escarpment, on the edge of the Rift Valley, Lake Manyara National Park is famous for its large alkaline soda lake which is home to the pink flamingo, yellow-billed stork, and heron. If you are lucky you may get a chance to see the tree climbing lions, which are unique to this national park. Watch out for some fun antics from the local baboon population; Lake Manyara is believed to have the largest number of these primates in the World!

Day 3: Manyara to Serengeti NP

After breakfast, you will take a picnic lunch with you as you continue to the Serengeti, a drive of around 4 1⁄2 hours through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Your journey will take you to the Olduvai Gorge, where the Leakeys discovered the hominoid remains of a 1.8 million-year-old skeleton of Australopithecus boisei, one of the distinct links of the human evolutionary chain. In a small canyon just north of the Ngorongoro Crater, the Leakeys and their team of international archaeologists unearthed the ruins of at least three distinct hominoid species and also came upon a complete series of hominoid footprints estimated to be over 3.7 million years old. Evacuated fossils show that the area is one of the oldest sites of hominoid habitation in the world. You will then continue into the Serengeti, with game viewing en-route.

Day 4: Full Day Serengeti NP

After breakfast, you will set out with a picnic lunch for a full-day game drive. Serengeti National Park is one of the world’s greatest game parks. Meaning “endless plains” in the Maasai language, it is Tanzania’s oldest game reserve and is world-famous for the role it plays in the annual Great Migration when an estimated two million herbivores – mostly wildebeest and zebra – migrate from the Serengeti to Kenya’s Maasai Mara Game Reserve.

Day 5: Full Day Serengeti NP

You will leave the safari camp at your leisure for another full-day game viewing in the Serengeti National Park. During June, the migrating herds will be collecting in the western corridor, preparing to cross the Grumeti River. Even when the migration is quiet, the Serengeti offers some of the most exciting game viewing – great herds of buffalo, smaller groups of elephant and giraffe, as well as thousands of elands, topi, hartebeest, impala, and Grant’s gazelle.

Day 6: Ngorongoro Crater

After an early breakfast, you will drive to the fascinating wildlife arena of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The crater, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is over 260km2 (100 miles2) and was formed when a massive volcano exploded and collapsed on itself 2 – 3 million years ago. It is now the largest intact volcanic caldera in the world and is often referred to as “Africa’s Eden”. Home to more than 25,000 large mammals – it is not unusual to see all of the ‘Big Five (buffalo, elephant, rhino, lion, and leopard) in a single day. Driving through the Ngorongoro Highlands, you will arrive at the crater rim and then descend down 610m (2000 feet) onto its floor to start your safari extravaganza.

Day 7: Tarangire - Arusha

The Tarangire River runs through the park attracting a huge number of elephants, buffalos, giraffes, and antelopes, particularly in the dry season between June and October. It is not uncommon to see large herds of elephants roaming through Tarangire’s savannah grasses or taking shade under the odd-looking “upside down trees” (baobab) that are dotted around the park. This park is also a “must-see” for avid birdwatchers, boasting over 550 different bird species, the most diverse in Africa, including the Kori Bustard, the heaviest flying bird in the World! Following a morning game-drive you will start your journey back to Kilimanjaro Airport.
