After breakfast, our guide will meet you at the hotel, and we will head towards Nakuru Lake National Park. We will arrive by mid-morning and begin the safari, continuing until noon. The park, established in 1968, is famous for hosting one of the largest populations of rhinos in Kenya. Lake Nakuru, which covers a significant portion of the park, is known for its distinctive color due to the Cyanophyta bloom, which attracts large groups of flamingos and pelicans during the high season. At the end of the day, we will enjoy a delicious dinner and stay at Flamingo Hill Tented Camp or a similar camp.
In the morning, after a delicious breakfast, we will head towards the famous Masai Mara National Park, one of Kenya’s most iconic destinations.

During the morning and afternoon safaris, we will traverse its vast plains, where we will have the opportunity to observe lions, cheetahs, elephants, and a wide variety of other species in their natural habitat. At the end of the day, we will return to the camp to enjoy a delicious dinner and spend the night at Kichwa Tembo Tented Camp or similar.

At the end of the day, we will enjoy dinner and overnight accommodation at Kati Kati Tented Camp or a similar camp.
We will spend the day enjoying morning and afternoon safaris in the heart of wild Africa, the Serengeti National Park. We will explore its stunning kopjes and vast plains, where we will witness fascinating scenes: cheetahs hunting at speeds of over 100 km/h, lions in packs or in action, leopards resting in trees, as well as large mammals such as elephants and giraffes. We will also see zebras, wildebeests, antelopes, and a wide variety of birds that inhabit the park. At the end of the day, we will return to the Wildlife Lodge to enjoy a delicious dinner and spend the night in this cozy accommodation.
After breakfast, we will depart with a picnic lunch towards the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Once there, we will descend into the crater, known as the "Garden of Eden." We will enjoy a safari at the base of the crater, home to the rare black rhinoceros and the Big Five. Afterward, we will have lunch in the picnic area, and then continue with the safari towards the main exit. In the evening, we will return to Karatu for dinner and spend the night at Wildlife Lodge Manyara.
After breakfast, we will head to Lake Eyasi for cultural activities, where we will visit the Hadzabe and Datoga tribes, which are traditional communities found in Tanzania with a very unique way of life. The indigenous Hadza, known as Hadzabe, are nomadic hunter-gatherers who use bows and arrows. It’s much more than just visiting a tribe… it’s a complete African experience! We will learn about their way of life and much more. In the afternoon, we will enjoy watching flamingos and other water birds as the sun sets over Lake Eyasi. Dinner and accommodation at Ziwani Lodge.

Ellaine J2023-12-15 An adventure of a lifetime! From the moment we set off, the excitement was palpable. This 5-day safari not only fulfilled our wildlife dreams but also exceeded our expectations in every way. The majestic landscapes, incredible wildlife sightings, and the warm hospitality of Tanzania made it an unforgettable journey. Our encounters with the Big Five—lions, elephants, buffalos, leopards, and rhinos—were nothing short of mesmerizing. The expert guidance of our safari leader ensured we didn’t miss a moment of the wildlife action. Our accommodations were delightful—comfortable and nestled in nature. The evenings were filled with captivating stories around the campfire under the starlit African sky, making our safari experience even more memorable. Our guide’s wealth of knowledge about the wildlife, ecosystems, and local culture enriched every moment of our journey. They went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and safety throughout the safari. For anyone seeking an immersive and awe-inspiring safari experience, this itinerary is an absolute must!"

Thank you Sensation of Africa and we recommend this to anyone who want to visit Tanzania. dimitrisdimitris2022-11-23 Very nice experience with the best driver/guide! It was a last moments decision to travel to Tanzania and Zanzibar. From the first moment we talked with my guide, John, and the way he handled everything, I knew I can trust him and be sure of everything. We plan the whole trip together, cutting and adding places/activities and John was always ready to make everything possible, until the final program. Unfortunately it was a bit of a budget safari, but planned with care and everything went as perfect as it could be. I owe a big thanks to John for this trip, not only for making it possible and as good as it could be, but also for being such a very good company. Thank you John and Sensation of Africa! you have my respect and of course I highly recommend you to all who want to visit Africa and plan a safari. Hope all the best for you!

SERGI S2022-09-07 Todo es posible en Africa! Increíble experiencia en Africa de la mano del mejor guia. John nos a enseñado los rincones de Arusha y los mejores paisajes, animales y puestas de sol de Tanzania. Fredy S2022-07-28 Last minute booking; and everything was perfect. We were looking for a Safari in Serengenti and ended up last minute booking 5 Days Safari with Sensation of Africa, although we did the booking late but they were able to put everything in place the way we wanted from the lodge selection and the Safari Car was perfect. We saw a lot of animals than expected and we definitely enjoyed everything and we would recommend to anyone. Thank you everyone at Sensation of Africa. Igor C2022-07-07 VIAJE TRANSFORMADOR Ha sido una experiencia maravillosa. Somos una familia con tres niños y realmente ha sido una aventura transformadora. La emoción de descubrir la naturaleza de la mano de John a través de tres safaris no la vamos a olvidar nunca. MUY RECOMENDABLE. Organización impecable y mucha flexibilidad para poder adaptar el viaje al ritmo y energía de los niños. Steina H2022-06-16 Honey moon inolvidable Fuimos de luna de miel con mi mujer y todo salió perfecto. Hicimos Kenya y Tanzania. Lo organizamos desde España y desde el principio la comunicación con John fue perfecta, nos pasó el planning dónde añadimos alguna cosa sin ningún problema. Una vez allí disfrutamos muchísimo de los 2 países dónde los 2 guías que tuvimos (Bernard i John) estuvieron perfectos: muy profesionales y atentos en todo momento. Al final nos fuimos unos días a Zanzibar a nuestro aire y aún así, John nos ayudó en lo que necesitamos. Sin lugar a duda recomendable 100%. Siempre habíamos querido hacer un Safari pero superó nuestra expectativas. Un viaje inolvidable.
