Day 1: From Moshi to Tarangire National Park
We'll collect you from your Moshi hotel in the morning and set off towards Tarangire National Park. This stunning location is renowned for its vast baobab trees and impressive herds of elephants. The sparse vegetation makes for a unique and striking landscape where as many as 300 elephants can be found searching for water in the dry riverbeds.
You'll also have the opportunity to observe wildebeest, zebra, and buffalo congregating around the shrinking lagoons.
Enjoy an afternoon game drive with a delicious picnic lunch before we depart for the outskirts of the Ngorongoro Crater, where you'll be treated to a hot shower, dinner, and overnight stay at the Migombani Campsite.
Meals provided: lunch & dinner.
Day 2: From Ngorongoro Crater to Moshi
Get ready for an early start this day as we descend the 600m walls of the Ngorongoro Crater and witness one of Africa's seven natural wonders up close! This incredible location, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is widely regarded as one of the most stunning and unique places on the continent.
You'll encounter an abundance of African wildlife here, including the famed "big five" animals. The crater is home to a diverse and thriving population of wildlife and birdlife throughout the year, so keep your eyes peeled for lion, elephant, rhino, buffalo, and numerous species of plain animals such as wildebeest, zebra, reedbuck, gazelle, and many more.
In the afternoon, savor a delightful lunch at the hippo pool picnic site before setting off to Moshi later in the day. This marks the end of your safari adventure, and you'll have some time to prepare for your next journey, whether it be to Zanzibar or back home.
