Day 1

Arusha

It's time to begin your safari. Welcome to Tanzania! After we greet you and provide you with the trip briefing, we'll take you out to help you discover why so many people think Tanzania is the best place in Africa to go on safari.

Spend some time in Arusha, both the gateway city for most safaris in northern Tanzania and a fascinating place to explore. Enjoy good restaurants, streets filled with energy and so many snapshots of vibrant Tanzanian city life. It’s everything you look for in an urban pit stop.

Elewana Arusha Coffee Lodge

Lodge

Welcome to one of Arusha's best addresses. Here you get the convenience of an Arusha base, but also a supreme lodge with its own coffee plantation. The elegant rooms are some of the best anywhere in town, and the service is welcoming. The restaurant is similarly good and you'll enjoy strolling the beautiful grounds.

Day 2

Arusha National Park

You could come to Arusha National Park for the wildlife – birds are abundant, you’ll almost certainly see giraffe, zebra and buffalo, and perhaps elephant and hippo. But you’ll hardly be able to take your eyes off the scenery – here the Rift Valley is at its most beautiful. Rising above the park, Mt Meru is a volcano drawn from a child’s imagination. And Ngurdoto Crater is one of the most dazzling anywhere in Tanzania – it’s smaller than Ngorongoro, but otherwise is just as impressive.

Tarangire National Park

Explore one of Tanzania’s most rewarding national parks, a land of big baobab trees, big elephants and big cats. No wonder this ends up being the favorite park in Tanzania for many visitors. Sightings of wildebeest, giraffes, hippos, buffaloes, baboons, vervet monkeys and zebras are also almost guaranteed. Lions are plentiful here – Tarangire is home to one of Tanzania’s healthiest lion populations. While you’ll have to work a little harder to see a cheetah or leopard, it will only enhance your excitement when you do. You can also look forward to classic safari scenery – savannah plains, river woodlands and rocky hills.

Lake Manyara National Park

Lake Manyara is a world-class wildlife-viewing destination, and it offers you some really special safari experiences. For a start, it has one of the few lion populations in Africa which are known to climb trees. It's also famous for its elephants, and it's not unusual to drive along a forest track only to have to stop suddenly to allow an elephant family to pass. The setting is similarly superb, with the park's thin, but dense strip of forest wedged between a bird-rich lake and the steep cliffs of the Rift Valley escarpment.

You’ll never forget watching these animals interact, whether you see a hunt, a vast herd or a mother protecting her cub or calf. The Serengeti’s scenery is also unforgettable – observe Africa’s iconic acacia trees, the park’s golden grasslands and great piles of boulders known as kopjes.
