Day-by-Day Itinerary: 2-Day Tarangire & Ngorongoro Safari

Day 1 - Tarangire National Park


After breakfast, you will get into a 4x4 Land Cruiser safari vehicle, ready to depart for a safari to Tarangire National Park. Tarangire National Park has the highest population of elephants in Tanzania, comprising herds of up to 300 elephants who scratch the dry river bed for underground streams. There are also the migratory wildebeests, zebras, buffalos, impalas, gazelles, hartebeest and eland. It is the greatest concentration of wildlife outside the Serengeti ecosystem. It is a buffet for predators and the one place in Tanzania where dry-country antelope such as the stately fringe-eared oryx and peculiar long-necked gerenuk are regularly observed. After a whole day game drive, you will be transferred to your booked lodge in the evening for dinner, a warm shower and an overnight stay.

Day 2 - Ngorongoro Crater


Your driver/guide will transfer you to Ngorongoro Crater in the morning. After registration, descend to the crater floor for an enchanting game-viewing experience. Known as the world's eighth wonder, the Ngorongoro Crater is one of Africa's best-known wildlife arenas. The crater is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site offering a unique biosphere that has remained virtually unchanged since the dawn of time. Deep within the crater, enclosed by towering walls, some 25,000 large mammals wander the land's plains, lakes and forests. During your game drive, you will most likely see black rhinos, leopards, wonderful black-maned lions and many flamingos. After the crater tour, you will be transferred to Arusha.
