Your 6 day Tanzania safari begins with a morning transfer from your accommodation in Arusha to Tarangire National Park, a scenic drive of approximately two to three hours. Upon arrival, embark on a full-day game drive through the park’s vast savannah landscapes dotted with iconic baobab trees. Tarangire is famous for its large elephant herds, but it is also home to lions, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, and numerous bird species. The Tarangire River attracts wildlife throughout the year, making it an excellent location for wildlife viewing.

After an exciting day exploring the park, you will proceed to Ngare Lodge where you can relax in peaceful surroundings. Enjoy a delicious dinner and prepare for the adventures that await in the coming days of your safari.

After breakfast at Ngare Lodge, continue your 6 day Tanzania safari with a scenic drive toward the world-famous Serengeti National Park. The journey takes you through the beautiful Ngorongoro Highlands, where rolling hills, green landscapes, and panoramic views create a spectacular setting for the drive.

Upon entering the Serengeti, begin an afternoon game drive across the vast plains that define this legendary park. The Serengeti is known for its abundant wildlife including lions, cheetahs, wildebeest, zebras, and antelope species. As the sun begins to set over the golden savannah, you will head to Serengeti Sound of Silence for dinner and an overnight stay beneath the star-filled African sky.

This day of your 6 day Tanzania safari is dedicated to exploring the incredible wildlife of Serengeti National Park. Spend the entire day on exciting game drives through different areas of the park where wildlife activity is often at its peak. You may encounter prides of lions resting under acacia trees, cheetahs scanning the plains for prey, and herds of elephants moving across the grasslands.

A picnic lunch in the heart of the Serengeti allows you to enjoy the landscape while surrounded by nature. Your guide will share insights about the park’s ecosystem and help locate wildlife throughout the day. In the evening you will return to Serengeti Sound of Silence for dinner and overnight relaxation.

Begin the morning with an optional hot air balloon safari that offers breathtaking aerial views of the Serengeti plains and the wildlife below. This unique perspective provides an unforgettable way to experience the park at sunrise.

If you prefer to remain on the ground, an early morning game drive offers another opportunity to spot lions, cheetahs, elephants, zebras, and other wildlife in their natural habitat. After a picnic lunch, continue with afternoon game viewing as you gradually transfer toward the Ngorongoro Highlands. In the evening arrive at Ngorongoro Safari Lodge for dinner and overnight accommodation surrounded by dramatic highland scenery.

After breakfast, descend into the Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most remarkable wildlife destinations in Africa. The crater floor supports a dense concentration of animals including lions, elephants, buffaloes, hippos, and large flocks of flamingos around the soda lake. With some luck you may even spot the rare black rhinoceros.

Enjoy a picnic lunch within the crater while taking in the breathtaking scenery of this natural wonder. Later in the afternoon visit a traditional Maasai village where you can learn about local culture, traditions, and daily life. After this cultural experience, continue to Mawemawe Manyara Lodge in Mto wa Mbu for dinner and overnight stay.

The final day of your 6 day Tanzania safari begins with breakfast before heading to Lake Manyara National Park. Located at the base of the Great Rift Valley escarpment, this scenic park is known for its diverse habitats that include lush groundwater forests, open grasslands, and the alkaline lake itself.

During the morning game drive you may encounter elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, baboons, and the famous tree-climbing lions that make Lake Manyara unique. The park is also rich in birdlife, with flamingos and many other species often seen along the lakeshore. After a picnic or hot lunch, depart in the afternoon for Arusha where you will be dropped off at your hotel or transferred to the airport, marking the end of your memorable safari adventure in Tanzania.
