Step into this 7-Day Big Five Serengeti Luxury Safari that captures the very heart of Tanzania’s wilderness and beauty. Your adventure begins with a warm welcome at Kilimanjaro or Arusha Airport, followed by a relaxing stay at Springlands Hotel to prepare for the days ahead. The first stop is Lake Manyara National Park, where tree-climbing lions and an extraordinary variety of birdlife bring the landscape to life. An overnight stay in Karatu offers a peaceful pause before continuing to the legendary Serengeti, a place where endless grasslands host the Big Five and countless other wildlife spectacles. From there, descend into the dramatic Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site often called one of the greatest natural theaters of wildlife on earth. Your safari continues in Tarangire National Park, known for its large elephant herds, towering baobabs, and sweeping views that linger in memory. After exhilarating game drives, return to Springlands Hotel to relax, reflect, and savor the final moments of your safari. The trip concludes with a transfer to Kilimanjaro International Airport. For those who wish to keep exploring, an optional extension to the island of Zanzibar offers a blend of culture, spice markets, and pristine beaches.
Arrive at Kilimanjaro Airport, Tanzania. After clearing customs, look for your driver. They will be waiting for you, holding a sign with your name. Your driver will transport you to Moshi.
Drive to Lake Manyara National Park in the morning. Set against the steep escarpment of the Rift Valley, you’ll find Lake Manyara National Park with its evergreen groundwater forest and various ecosystems, including acacia woodland, grassy plains, a swampy fan delta, and – of course – the expansive lake. This diversity attracts various mammal, bird, and wildlife species. The park offers excellent game viewing with buffalo, impala, giraffe, bushbuck, waterbuck, hippos, and many elephants roaming near the lake. Also, look out for blue monkeys, velvet monkeys, and very active olive baboons.
Head out after breakfast for the drive to Serengeti National Park. ‘Serengeti’ is derived from the Maasai language, meaning ‘endless plain.’ En route to the Serengeti, you may visit Olduvai Gorge (at an additional fee), known as the Cradle of Humanity. This museum is a testament to the long journey that humanity has made from its humble roots in East Africa to its current state as the dominant species on Earth. Enjoy a game drive en route to your camp.
Relax for a full day in the Serengeti – unequaled for its beauty and home to the Great Wildebeest Migration. The huge herds of plains game, such as wildebeest, zebra, and antelope, dominate the park, while the attendant predators, such as lion and cheetah, are to be found amongst the many kopjes scattered across the plain. Its landscape varies from open grass plains in the south, savanna with scattered acacia trees in the center, hilly, wooded grassland in the north, to extensive woodland and black clay plains to the west.
Enjoy a morning game drive en route to Ngorongoro Crater. Descend into the Ngorongoro Crater for game driving and exploration. The crater is 600m deep, 16km across, and 265 sq km in area. Enjoy the spectacular scenery and game viewing in what has been described as the world’s eighth wonder. Many of Tanzania’s last remaining black rhinos can be seen grazing on the open grassland of the crater floor, surrounded by some of the 20,000 large animals that occupy the crater, including lion, cheetah, eland, zebra, and gazelle. Flamingos, among other bird species, can often be seen feeding at Makat Soda Lake. Afternoon drive to your lodge for your overnight stay.
Drive to Tarangire National Park in the morning. Tarangire is traversed by the Tarangire River, which never dries up. Being the only water source during the dry season, it draws hundreds of animals to the park, making wildlife and bird viewing spectacular. The landscape is varied, with grassy savannah plains, swamps, hills, and spectacular baobabs.
Enjoy a leisurely morning before your transfer to Kilimanjaro airport for your flight home.
