Accommodations: Oltukai Lodge

Breakfast: At the lodge.

A day of game viewing in Amboseli National Park. Set on the border of Tanzania and in the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro, Amboseli is a bird-watcher’s paradise: It shelters more than 400 bird species, including pelicans, flamingos, kingfishers, and ibis. We may see some of these avian wonders while we take in the view of the sweeping savanna.

And while the region’s birdlife is abundant, elephants are by far the kings of this park. Said to be among the largest in the country, Amboseli’s elephants are fond of the swamps: Here they share the cool waters with hippos that often hide from view beneath the papyrus. Along our drive, our Trip Experience Leader and driver-guides will show us how to detect the elusive wildlife in our midst, in addition to pointing out other highlights of this vibrant ecosystem. Perhaps we’ll glimpse some of Amboseli’s large wildebeest and Burchell’s zebra populations as we drive.

Lunch: Enjoy a packed lunch in the park.

Afternoon: proceed with game viewing within the park, before returning to your lodge for dinner & overnight,

Dinner: Served at our camp’s main restaurant.

Morning: We’ll board safari vehicles for transfer to the Tanzania border, where we’ll switch to Tanzania safari vehicles for our journey to Tarangire. Along the way, we’ll stop in Arusha, a multicultural hub of activity at the base of Mount Meru, for lunch.

Lunch: You will have your lunch,

Afternoon: We should reach our lodge near Tarangire National Park by late afternoon. Upon arrival, you’re welcome to join your experience guide for an elective guided walk around your surroundings, which will set the stage for the discoveries that await us here. Tarangire features nine distinct vegetation zones—ranging from grassland to woodland, from deep gully vegetation to scattered rocky hilltops.

Meals included: B L D

Destination: Tarangire National Park

Accommodations: Sangaiwe Tented Camp

Breakfast: At the camp.

Morning: On our way to the park for a full-day of game viewing, our experienced driver-guides will help set the stage for the discoveries that await. Of particular note is the birdlife: Tarangire is home to the largest concentration of breeding bird species in the world. The flora is similarly dramatic here, as we take in sweeping views of the baobab tree-dotted landscape. Known as the “Tree of Life,” they can provide shelter, food, and water to animals and humans. In fact, every part of the baobab tree is valuable, from the bark and trunk to the nutrient-packed fruits. The elongated trunk and expansive branches have become a symbol of the African landscape, most notably from Disney’s The Lion King.

Lunch: Enjoy a picnic lunch in the park.

Afternoon: As our game-viewing continues, we’ll learn how the commanding Tarangire River serves as the hub for the thriving ecosystem we’re witnessing. The river plays a key role in the annual African migration of wildebeest and zebra—and is a critical water source during the continent’s dry season. In addition to wildebeest and zebra, Tarangire hosts Cape buffalo, elephants, giraffe, dik dik, lion, leopard and cheetah. We’ll also be on the lookout for the park’s famous termite mounds: Some continue to contain termites, while others have been taken over by dwarf mongooses.

After returning to our lodge, our Trip Experience Leader will lead us to a nearby village, where we’ll meet with local residents and explore.

Dinner: At the camp.

Evening: You have the freedom to relax in your tent or compare safari photographs with your fellow travellers.

Morning: Enjoy a full-day of game-viewing as we make our way to Serengeti National Park, perhaps one of the most famous wildlife-viewing destinations in Africa. Masses of wildlife roam the Serengeti, which stretches over 5,700 miles of plains, riverine bush, and acacia woodland, with savanna grassland as the dominant environment.

Lunch: Enjoy a boxed lunch within the park.

Afternoon: We’ll resume our game-viewing drive seeking out the wide range of wildlife species that call the Serengeti home. Lion, cheetah, hyena, and jackal stalk herds of gazelle, zebra, wildebeest, and impala. Comical warthogs bend down on their front knees to graze while elegant cheetah rest in the shade of acacia trees after a hunt. Isolated rock groups, called kopjes, provide shelter to lion, leopard, and cheetah—and to the tiny rodent-like hyrax, the closest relative of the elephant.
Later this afternoon, we’ll arrive at our tented camp, our home for the next four nights.

Dinner: At the camp.

Evening: On your own. You’re free to retire to your tent to rest—especially if you’re joining tomorrow’s early-morning optional balloon safari—or enjoy a drink at the bar.

Lunch: At the camp.

Afternoon: As the wildlife tends to rest during the early-afternoon hours, so shall we—you’ll be free to relax at the camp before our final game-viewing drive in the Serengeti. This is a great opportunity to seek out any animals we may have missed, and to ask any lingering questions of our Trip Experience Leader or driver-guides.

Dinner: We’ll toast to the memories we’ve made during our adventure at a Farewell Dinner at camp.

Lunch: Enjoy a picnic lunch in the bush.

Afternoon: After lunch, we’ll reboard our safari vehicles and resume our game-viewing. In certain seasons, you may be lucky enough to witness the migration of the wildebeest herds—annually, more than a million wildebeest, zebra, and antelope travel from the Serengeti to the Masai Mara, and then back again.

Dinner: At the camp.

Evening: On your own. You’re free to enjoy the camp as you’d like tonight.

After breakfast, we depart Serengeti and drive to Ngorongoro for a game drive in the Ngorongoro Crater. Late in the afternoon, we drive back to the lodge. The jewel in Ngorongoro’s crown is a deep, volcanic crater, the largest unflooded and unbroken caldera in the world. About 21km across, 600m deep, and 265 sq. km in area, the Ngorongoro Crater is a breathtaking natural wonder. We will visit Lake Magadi, a large but shallow alkaline lake in the southwestern corner, which is one of the main features of the crater.

A large number of flamingos, hippos, and other waterbirds can usually be seen here. Grazers like zebra, wildebeest, and buffalo can be seen grazing in the open grass plains, and lions lying lazily. The forest and swamps are perfect areas to look for big-tusked elephants and hippos basking on the edges to warm their bodies. Your accommodation, Farm of Dreams Lodge, is located in the tourist town of Karatu and sits in a garden of flowers and vegetables.
