Tarangire National Park

A highlight of the tour is Tarangire National Park, a tranquil gem famous for enormous elephant herds and ancient baobab trees.

Lake Manyara National Park

Next, explore Lake Manyara National Park, a compact yet ecologically diverse area at the base of the Rift Valley escarpment. Its lush forests, soda lakes, and open grasslands are home to tree-climbing lions, hippos, elephants, buffalo, monkeys, and a vibrant variety of birds. The park’s scenery is both dramatic and picturesque, offering incredible photography opportunities and memorable wildlife sightings.

Serengeti National Park

The tour then takes you to the legendary Serengeti National Park, Africa’s most iconic wildlife destination. Renowned for the Great Migration, this vast plain hosts millions of wildebeest, zebras, and gazelles, pursued by predators like lions, cheetahs, and hyenas. Even outside migration season, the Serengeti provides consistent and thrilling wildlife encounters amidst endless horizons and breathtaking sunsets.

Lake Eyasi & Tribal Experiences

Beyond wildlife, the tour immerses you in Tanzania’s rich cultures with a visit to Lake Eyasi, home to the Hadzabe hunter-gatherers and Datoga pastoralists.
