Day-by-Day Itinerary
After breakfast, we will head to Tarangire National Park, known for hosting the highest concentration of elephants in Africa. Upon entering through the main gate, we’ll begin our safari, where we can observe elephants, antelopes, lions, zebras, and many other animals, all set against a backdrop of towering baobab trees.
We’ll have lunch at the picnic area, and at sunset, we’ll transfer to Karatu to enjoy dinner and spend the night.
This morning, we will visit the two native tribes of the Eyasi Lake area. This visit will give us the opportunity to meet two tribes that have established a mutual exchange relationship. The Datoga craft metal pieces for arrows, which 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, coexisting in balance in the 21st century. With them, you'll learn how to start a fire, and we may even accompany them on one of their hunts.
After the visit, we’ll head to the lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.
After breakfast, we will begin our journey to Serengeti National Park, where we’ll start our safari by exploring the vast plains of the park, home to the famous wildebeest migration and an incredible variety of wildlife.
Throughout the day, we’ll have the opportunity to observe lions, elephants, zebras, and gazelles in their natural habitat, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes.
At sunset, we’ll settle into our camp or lodge to enjoy a delicious dinner under the stars.
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’ll have the opportunity 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 to enjoy a unique panoramic view of the vast plains and its wildlife. After the flight, we will continue with the land safari, ending the day at our camp or lodge.
This is our day to make the most of the experience. We will wake up early in the morning, and as the sun rises in the east, we’ll witness the animals waking up while the lions do their best to hunt before the hottest hours of the day. We’ll pack our lunch and get ready for whatever the safari brings.
At sunset, we will return to the lodge to enjoy an outdoor dinner while watching the beautiful sunset.
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 rhino and the Big Five. Afterward, we’ll have lunch at the picnic area, and then continue the safari towards the main exit.
Later, we will return to Karatu for dinner and an overnight stay.
Upon leaving the accommodation in Karatu, we will return to Arusha, but we will make a stop along the way to visit the African Gallery, a unique place where the iconic Ebony Tree is located. Here, we can explore and appreciate local art while enjoying the surrounding nature of this special point of interest.
After the stop, we will continue our journey to Arusha, where you can choose to spend a few relaxing days on the paradise beaches of Zanzibar or take your flight back home.
In Zanzibar, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy various activities and excursions that will allow you to explore everything this paradisiacal island has to offer. You can relax on its stunning white-sand beaches, swim in the crystal-clear waters, and try snorkeling or diving to discover the vibrant marine life.
Additionally, you can embark on a boat trip to spot dolphins or explore nearby islands, such as the famous Spice Island, where you’ll learn about the rich history of local products. Don’t miss a visit to Stone Town, with its charming streets full of history, unique architecture, and vibrant markets.
You can also enjoy a bike tour through the tropical landscapes or take an excursion to the spice plantations to discover the native flavors of Zanzibar.
On the last day, you will enjoy a delicious breakfast at the hotel, surrounded by the views that marked your journey. You’ll have time to relax or do some shopping before heading to the airport. There, you’ll take your flight back home, with unforgettable memories of your safari in Tanzania and the paradisiacal beaches of Zanzibar.
This unique experience will stay in your memory forever. Goodbye for now, Tanzania!

The experience in each corner, in an organized way and accompanied by local guides, has meant that each place will exceed all expectations. 100% recommendable!! 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!"

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.
