EVERY DAY, A NEW CHAPTER

Your day-by-day itinerary.

A sample route to shape with your operator. The final programme confirms accommodation, meals, activities and transfers.

01
DAY 1

Welcome to Arusha

Meet your driver at the agreed arrival point and transfer to your Arusha accommodation. Settle in before a safari briefing covering the route, luggage, meals and daily pace. If your arrival time allows, enjoy a short orientation around town. Overnight in Arusha; accommodation and meals follow your quotation.

02
DAY 2

Elephants and baobabs in Tarangire

Leave Arusha after breakfast and travel to Tarangire National Park. Spend the day exploring with your guide, pausing for a picnic at an authorised site. The route follows current wildlife conditions rather than a fixed sighting checklist. Later, continue to a lodge or camp in the Tarangire or Karatu area.

03
DAY 3

Into the Serengeti

Travel through the Ngorongoro highlands towards Serengeti National Park, allowing time for park formalities, lunch and scenic stops. Enjoy a game drive as you make your way to camp. This is a substantial transfer day; the final route and timings depend on your starting point, road conditions and camp location.

04
DAY 4

A full day on the Serengeti plains

Start early with your guide to explore the habitats around your camp. Choose a full-day outing with a packed lunch or split morning and afternoon drives, depending on the agreed programme. Take time to observe wildlife behaviour and photograph the landscape. Return to the same camp for dinner and a second night.

05
DAY 5

A little time for yourselves

Keep the morning relaxed at your selected accommodation, then choose an agreed local outing or optional experience. This day gives your journey breathing space between safari drives and transfers. Private meals, spa treatments or special celebrations can be requested and quoted separately. Tell the operator about your preferences early so realistic arrangements can be made.

06
DAY 6

Ngorongoro Crater discovery

Depart early for a guided game drive within Ngorongoro Crater, subject to the permit and access arrangements confirmed for your booking. Bring layers for the highlands and enjoy a picnic at an authorised location. After your allocated exploration time, ascend to the rim and continue to accommodation in the Karatu or highlands area.

07
DAY 7

Return to Arusha

Enjoy breakfast and travel back to Arusha with time for a lunch stop where included. Your driver will take you to the agreed hotel or departure point. Book onward flights only after the operator confirms a suitable connection window. An extra night in Arusha can be arranged if you prefer a more relaxed departure.
