Karibu Tanzania - a warm welcome to Tanzania!

From the moment you arrive at Kilimanjaro International Airport, your very own Tanzanian adventure begins. Your private safari guide will be waiting to welcome you at the airport. After getting acquainted, you will set off together towards Tarangire National Park.

Even the journey there will give you a first impression of this beautiful country, its warm and welcoming people, and its vast landscapes.

Tarangire National Park is one of the truly special places in northern Tanzania. Majestic, ancient baobab trees dominate the landscape, while large herds of elephants roam across the savanna. With a little luck, your very first day on safari may bring encounters with lions, leopards, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes and numerous species of antelope. Tarangire is also a paradise for bird lovers.

Once you arrive at your lodge, take some time to settle in, relax and enjoy the unique atmosphere of the African bush. After an early dinner, another unforgettable experience awaits.

As the sun sets and a sense of tranquillity settles over the savanna, you will set off on an exciting night game drive. After dark, the African bush reveals an entirely different side. Together with your guide, you will use a spotlight to search for the fascinating animals that only become active after nightfall.

The sounds of the African night, the spectacular star-filled sky and the feeling of being surrounded by untamed wilderness will make your first night in Tanzania a truly memorable experience.

Afterwards, you will return to your lodge and relax as you reflect on the unforgettable experiences of your first day on safari.

After breakfast, you will set off on a morning game drive through Tarangire National Park. The early hours are particularly beautiful: temperatures are still pleasant, many animals are active, and the soft morning light casts a magical glow across the savanna.

Once again, you will explore the park’s diverse landscapes, keeping an eye out for elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes and many other species of wildlife.

You will then leave Tarangire and, with your lunch boxes on board, continue your journey towards Ndutu. The drive itself is part of the experience, as the scenery gradually changes and the vast open plains of the Ndutu region begin to unfold before you.

In the afternoon, you will embark on your first game drive through this beautiful and unspoilt wilderness. Ndutu captivates with its vast landscapes, tranquillity and remarkable abundance of wildlife — a place where you can truly feel the magic of Africa.

In the late afternoon, you will arrive at your lodge. After an exciting day on safari, enjoy dinner and a relaxing evening surrounded by the sights and sounds of the African wilderness.

Today begins early – right in the heart of the African wilderness. Before breakfast, you will set off on a morning game drive through the Ndutu region. In the cool early hours, the bush comes to life, offering wonderful opportunities for very special wildlife encounters.

Afterwards, you will return for breakfast before continuing your journey towards Central Serengeti. Along the way, spectacular scenery unfolds around you: endless plains, striking rock formations and ever-changing views accompany you on your journey.

In the afternoon, you will embark on your first game drive through Central Serengeti, one of Tanzania’s most wildlife-rich regions. Keep an eye out for lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes and cheetahs as you explore this legendary landscape.

As the day slowly draws to a close, you will make your way to your tented camp. Here, surrounded by the African wilderness, you will enjoy dinner and soak up the magical atmosphere of an evening in the heart of the Serengeti.

Today is entirely dedicated to the Serengeti. After breakfast, you will set off with your experienced safari guide to explore the seemingly endless plains of this world-famous national park.

The Central Serengeti is renowned for its extraordinary abundance of wildlife. Prides of lions, elephants, giraffes, buffaloes, zebras, wildebeest and numerous species of antelope can all be found here. You may also encounter cheetahs — and, with a little luck, even spot an elusive leopard.

Your guide knows the Serengeti intimately and, depending on the season, weather conditions and current wildlife movements, will choose the areas offering the best opportunities for exceptional sightings that day. No two days in the Serengeti are ever the same — and often it is the unexpected encounters that remain in your memory for years to come.

At lunchtime, enjoy a picnic in the heart of the wilderness before continuing your game drive in the afternoon.

In the evening, you will return to your tented camp. Over a relaxed dinner, accompanied by the sounds of the African wilderness, you can unwind and reflect on another unforgettable day in the Serengeti.

After breakfast, you will say goodbye to the Serengeti and make your way towards the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Today, another very special highlight of your safari awaits: the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater.

From the crater rim, you will descend approximately 600 metres to the crater floor, entering a fascinating world of its own. The combination of open grasslands, forests and permanent water sources provides the perfect habitat for an extraordinary variety of wildlife.

During your game drive, you may encounter lions, elephants, buffaloes, zebras, wildebeest, hippos and hyenas. And with a little luck, you may even spot one of the rare black rhinos that still find a protected home within the Ngorongoro Crater.

At lunchtime, enjoy a picnic in the heart of the crater, surrounded by the spectacular scenery of this unique landscape. Afterwards, you will continue your game drive and discover more of the crater’s remarkable wildlife.

In the afternoon, you will leave the crater behind and continue to Karatu, a charming small town on the edge of the Ngorongoro Highlands.

Once you arrive at your lodge, enjoy dinner and relax after another unforgettable day of your Tanzanian adventure.

After breakfast, you will say goodbye to Karatu and begin your journey back to Arusha. Along the way, watch the scenery gradually change and take some time to reflect on the unforgettable moments and wildlife encounters of your safari.

Depending on your flight schedule, there may be time in Arusha to relax for a while or enjoy a leisurely lunch before your transfer to the airport.

And then it is time for a change of scenery: Zanzibar awaits! A short domestic flight takes you to the legendary Spice Island in the Indian Ocean. Upon arrival, you will be warmly welcomed and transferred to your hotel on the outskirts of Stone Town.

After your adventurous days in the African wilderness, a new chapter of your journey begins.

Discover the unique charm of Stone Town, stroll through the narrow streets of its fascinating historic quarter, or simply relax and watch the sun slowly set over the Indian Ocean.

Today, the pace is entirely yours. After breakfast, the day is yours to spend exactly as you wish – relaxing, exploring and simply enjoying the beauty of Zanzibar.

Perhaps you would like to wander through the winding streets of Stone Town, browse its colourful markets and small shops, and immerse yourself in the unique atmosphere of this fascinating historic town. Or simply slow down, relax and enjoy Zanzibar’s tropical charm.

If you would like to discover more of the island, a variety of optional excursions can be arranged according to your personal interests:

• Stone Town Tour – discover the history, architecture and colourful everyday life of the historic old town
• Spice Farm – immerse yourself in the world of exotic spices for which Zanzibar has been famous for centuries
• Prison Island – visit this small offshore island and meet its famous giant tortoises
• Snorkelling or Boat Trip – explore the fascinating underwater world of the Indian Ocean
• Dolphin Excursion – head out to sea in search of dolphins in their natural environment
• Sunset Cruise – enjoy a relaxing boat trip as the sun slowly sets over the Indian Ocean

Whatever you feel like doing today, the choice is yours – explore, enjoy, or simply relax.

Another day to enjoy entirely at your own pace. Start with a leisurely breakfast, wander through the lively streets of Stone Town, or choose from one of the many optional excursions the island has to offer.

Or perhaps you would simply like to make no plans at all – relax, soak up the unique atmosphere of Zanzibar and take time to reflect on the many wonderful experiences and unforgettable moments of your journey.

After breakfast, depending on your departure time, you may still have some time to relax on the beach at your hotel or take a final stroll through the winding streets of Stone Town. Perhaps you will discover a charming little café, browse some local shops, or simply soak up the unique atmosphere of Zanzibar one last time before your transfer to the airport.

And so, a truly special journey comes to an end. You have experienced Tanzania’s incredible wildlife, travelled across the endless plains of the Serengeti, explored the magnificent Ngorongoro Crater, and finally enjoyed the unique charm and tropical beauty of Zanzibar.

What remains are countless wonderful memories, unforgettable encounters – and perhaps just a little longing to return to Africa.

Thank you for allowing us to be part of your journey. We wish you a safe and pleasant journey home and would be delighted to welcome you back to Tanzania one day!

Asante sana & karibu tena Tanzania!
