Day-by-Day Itinerary

Day 1. Arusha – Tarangire

After breakfast, we will head to Tarangire National Park, known for having the largest concentration of elephants in Africa. Upon entering through the main gate, we will begin our safari, where we can observe elephants, antelopes, lions, zebras, and many other animals, all in a landscape surrounded by majestic baobab trees. We will have lunch in the picnic area, and at sunset, we will transfer to Karatu to enjoy dinner and spend the night.

Day 2. Serengeti National Park

After breakfast, we will begin our journey to Serengeti National Park, where we will start our safari exploring the vast plains of the park, home to the famous Great Wildebeest Migration and an incredible variety of wildlife. Throughout the day, we will have the opportunity to observe lions, elephants, zebras, and gazelles in their natural habitat, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes. At nightfall, we will settle into our camp or lodge to enjoy dinner under the stars.

Day 3. Serengeti National Park

On our second day of safari in Serengeti, we will explore the central and eastern regions of the park, known for their abundant wildlife, especially during the migration. We will have the chance to spot lions, leopards, giraffes, and large herds of wildebeest and zebras. Additionally, we offer the option of a hot air balloon ride at sunrise, providing a unique panoramic view of the vast plains and their wildlife. After the flight, we will continue the safari on land, ending the day at the camp or lodge.

Day 4. Serengeti National Park

This is our day to enjoy to the fullest. We will wake up early in the morning, and as the sun rises in the east, we will witness the animals waking up while the lions do their best to hunt before the hottest hours. We will pack our lunch and prepare for whatever the safari brings us. At dusk, we will return to the lodge to enjoy an outdoor dinner while admiring the sunset.

Day 5. Ngorongoro Crater

After breakfast, we will set off 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 crater’s base, home to the rare black rhino and the Big Five. Later, we will have lunch in the picnic area and then continue the safari towards the main exit. Afterward, we will return to Karatu for dinner and an overnight stay.

Day 6. Lake Eyasi

This morning, we will visit the two native tribes of the Lake Eyasi area. This visit will allow us to learn about two tribes that have established a mutual exchange relationship. The Datoga make metal arrowheads that the Hadzabe use to hunt small antelopes and other animals for food, and in return, the Hadzabe offer them some of the meat they obtain. They are a clear example of the interaction between wildlife and humans living in harmony in the 21st century. With them, you will learn how to make fire, and we may even accompany them on one of their hunts. After the visit, we will head to the lodge for dinner and overnight stay.

Day 7. Karatu - Arusha

After breakfast, depart for Arusha with a scenic drive that includes a stop at the renowned Africa Galleria for a curated selection of Tanzanian art and souvenirs. En route, pause at the vibrant town of Mto wa Mbu to explore the bustling local market and engage in immersive cultural experiences such as a guided village walk, banana plantation tour, traditional cooking session, and a relaxed bicycle ride through the community. Guests will also enjoy a flavorful local lunch featuring up to 12 traditional Tanzanian dishes and have the opportunity to taste the local banana brew—offering an unforgettable culinary and cultural encounter before continuing the journey to Arusha.

 Verified Amazing safari!
We just came back from a 4 day safari trip with sensation of Africa and had an amazing experience! From the beginning, our guide John took care of everything and his communication was excellent. He is a very good English speaker which made everything really easy. The whole trip was planned perfect and comfortable. We went to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro and saw plenty of animals including the big 5. John could tell us a lot about them and about the environment which made the trip even more special. The accomodations were also really comfortable. On the whole journey he took care of us and was checking if we were confortable. I would definitely recommend sensation of Africa if you are searching for a (local) safari company!
