Day-by-Day Itinerary

This four days safari offers extensive wildlife viewing opportunities in Tanzania’s celebrated national parks. The tour starts at Lake Manyara National Park, famed for lions that climb trees and over 400 species of birds. Following this, the trip continues to two UNESCO World Heritage sites the Serengeti National Park, renowned for its endless grasslands, and the Ngorongoro Crater, celebrated for its remarkable wildlife diversity.

Your day begins with an early morning pick up from your lodge in Arusha by your professional guide from Akika Adventure Tours. You will then embark on a scenic drive to Arusha National Park, carrying packed lunch boxes for your day in the wild.

Upon arrival, enjoy a guided game drive through the park’s diverse habitats, offering excellent opportunities to spot a variety of wildlife. Arusha National Park is home to an impressive range of animals, including African elephants, Cape buffaloes, giraffes, zebras, hippos, and the more elusive wildebeest.

What makes this park particularly unique is the opportunity to experience a guided walking safari, accompanied by an armed park ranger. This allows you to explore the natural environment up close, offering a more intimate and immersive wildlife experience.

The park is equally renowned for its stunning and varied landscapes anging from open savannah plains and acacia woodlands to lush tropical rainforest, all set against the backdrop of Mount Meru.

After a rewarding day of exploration, you will return to your lodge for dinner and an overnight stay, concluding your memorable safari experience with Akika Adventure Tours.

After breakfast, you will depart for Serengeti National Park on a game drive and enjoy lunch at a suitable place inside the park. We will continue the game drive activity in the afternoon before reaching the camp.

Serengeti National Park is well-known for its great migrating herds of zebra, antelope, and wildebeest. However, be ready to see resident predators such as leopards, cheetahs, and lions fulfilling their role in the circle of life.

You will wake up early and enjoy a magical game drive in Serengeti National Park before you depart to the Manyara area in the afternoon. Your accommodation for the night is near the Ngorongoro Crater.

Early the following morning, you descend into the crater for game viewing. Early mornings are the best time to see animals as they are more active than in the rest of the day.

After breakfast, you will descend into the Ngorongoro Crater for a game drive. Once you finish the game drive, you are transported to Arusha, where our safari concludes.

The Ngorongoro Conservation Area is the area that constitutes the largest uninterrupted caldera in the world and one of the natural wonders of Africa. About 30 000 large mammals are resident all year round (such as buffaloes, lions, elephants, cheetahs, and rhinos), and a wide variety of birds (such as flamingos, eagles, and buzzards). So be ready to see many animals here within a short time.
