Embark on an afternoon game drive in search of giraffes, waterbucks, wildebeest, zebras and elephants. Keep your eyes trained for hartebeest, gazelles and exotic birds. Tarangire is well known for its huge elephant population and baobab trees. It forms the centre of an annual migratory cycle that includes up to 3000 elephants, 25,000 wildebeest and 30,000 zebras. Dinner and overnight at Oliver’s Camp.

This morning you will set off with your driver-guide for Lake Manyara National Park, where you can enjoy game drives for the day. You will take a picnic lunch with you to enjoy at midday and can spend your time exploring this small but beautiful national park. The flamingos on the lake are a classic East African sight. You will leave the park in the afternoon and be driven up the Rift Valley escarpment and into the Ngorongoro Highlands where you will spend the next three nights overlooking the Ngorongoro Crater at the amazing Ngorongoro Crater Lodge.

After breakfast, drive to Ngorongoro Conservation Area, You will descend over 600 meters into the crater to view wildlife. Supported by a year round water supply and fodder, the Ngorongoro National Park supports a vast variety of animals, which include herds of wildebeest, zebra, buffalo, eland, warthog, hippo, and giant African elephants. Another big draw card to this picturesque national park, is it’s dense population of predators, which include lions, hyenas, jackals, cheetahs and the ever-elusive leopard, which sometimes requires a trained eye to spot. We will visit Lake Magadi, a large but shallow alkaline lake in the southwestern corner, which is one of the main features of the crater. A large number of flamingos, hippos and other water birds can usually been seen here.

Breakfast at the lodge this morning at your lodge, and afterwards you will be taken to the airstrip for your light aircraft to the Serengeti National Park. On arrival in the park you will be greeted by your guide.  from Namiri Plains camp. Namiri Plains is located where the southern short grass plains meet the acacia woodland. The Ngare Nanyuki underground river creates pockets of permanent water that support year-round concentrations of wildlife. With easy prey available throughout the year there is more than enough big cat activity here and the dramatic rocky outcrops that dot the plains serve as excellent observation points for cheetah, lion and leopard on the lookout for prey – the perfect place for those looking to see the cats of the Serengeti.

A full days of game drives around Serengeti. Depending on the time of year and the migration of the herds you can expect to see wildebeest, lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, monkeys, baboons, hippos, rhinos, antelopes and many birds and other species. You will spend these two days doing full day game drives with picnic lunch or alternatively you may opt for morning and Sunset game drives with breaks for lunch and afternoon relaxation at the lodge or an afternoon nap at your lodge. As you may wish!.

Awake to your final day on safari, enjoying a parting glimpse of the Serengeti’s boundless wildlife with one last game drive. Reflect on the landscapes around you and the countless memories made on this adventure of a lifetime.
