7 Days Luxury Safari in Tanzania

Upon your arrival at Kilimanjaro International Airport, your friendly Lemunge Tours driver-guide will be waiting to welcome you with a warm smile. As you settle into the comfortable vehicle, enjoy the scenic drive to your hotel in either Arusha or Moshi Town, both of which are considered Tanzania's "safari capital." Along the way, you'll catch glimpses of this vibrant and bustling commercial city. Depending on your arrival time, your pre-safari briefing may occur today, or it will be scheduled for early tomorrow morning. 🌍🌆🚗

Following a morning safari briefing and a pleasant 2-hour drive, you’ll arrive at Tarangire National Park. This remarkable natural reserve is adorned with towering baobab trees, expansive bush savannah, and seasonal wetlands. Tarangire is renowned worldwide as one of the best places to witness elephants up close. The park also hosts herds of buffaloes, zebras, and wildebeests, constantly on the move and often pursued by formidable predators like lions. While leopards occasionally grace the scene, cheetahs remain a rare sight. The open roof of your safari vehicle provides an unobstructed view of the landscape and allows you to immerse yourself in the wildlife spectacle. As the afternoon sun wanes, you’ll bid farewell to the park and journey to Lake Burunge Tented Camp, where you’ll spend the night amidst nature’s tranquility. 🌿🐘🌅

Following a hearty breakfast, your journey continues from Tarangire to the captivating Lake Manyara National Park. This park is renowned for its diverse avian population, boasting over 400 bird species. As you traverse the primate-filled woodlands and expansive grassy plains, you’ll encounter the alkaline Lake Manyara, which serves as a seasonal nesting ground for vast colonies of flamingos and other waterfowl. The lake covers a significant portion of the park’s landscape.

Keep your eyes peeled for other fascinating wildlife! Giraffes, hippos, wildebeests, impalas, and lively troops of monkeys and baboons inhabit this diverse ecosystem. After an exhilarating game drive, your day concludes at the Kirurumu Manyara Lodge, where you’ll rest amidst the natural beauty of Tanzania. 🌿🦩🌅

Following a delightful breakfast, your journey continues through the cool highlands, leading you to the southern Serengeti. As you arrive at the vast plains of Serengeti National Park around midday, you’ll be immersed in Tanzania’s grandeur. This park, the largest in the country, boasts a diverse array of habitats and landscapes. From the short grass plains to the sweeping savannah, dense bush, tranquil swamps, and shimmering lakes, the Serengeti unfolds its natural wonders.

Kopjes, peculiar rock formations, punctuate the grassy expanse. These rocky outcrops serve as vantage points where predators often keep a watchful eye on their surroundings. But the true spectacle lies in the annual migration—hundreds of thousands of wildebeests and zebras traversing the Serengeti in search of fresh grass and water.

As the sun begins to set, you’ll find solace within the Kati Kati Tented Camp, nestled right within the heart of this remarkable wilderness. 🌿🦓🌅

The entire day unfolds in a mesmerizing dance of wildlife exploration within Serengeti National Park. Your path through this vast wilderness is dictated by the migrating herds, their movements shaping your journey. Predators, ever vigilant, follow in their wake. Lions, leopards—often perched among the acacia trees—and cheetahs are your companions as you traverse the landscape.

In the short wet season (November to December), the herds descend from the highlands to the plains. Come the lengthier rainy season (April to June), they migrate northward. Their epic journey, synchronized with the rhythm of rainfall, paints a dynamic canvas. Each year, the herds’ location shifts, but your seasoned guide knows precisely where to seek out these magnificent creatures and where to capture the most awe-inspiring vistas.

As the sun sets, you’ll find solace once again at the Kati Kati Tented Camp, nestled in the heart of this untamed wonderland. 🌿🐆🌅

As you continue your journey from the Serengeti National Park, there’s still more wildlife to behold. Your route will lead you to the park gate, where you’ll enjoy additional glimpses of nature’s wonders. In the early afternoon, bid farewell to the Serengeti and set forth toward the Ngorongoro Conservation Area.

As you approach the edge of the Ngorongoro Crater, a massive caldera reveals itself—a sight that will leave you breathless. This natural wonder, with its steep walls and lush interior, is a testament to the Earth’s geological history.

Leaving the Ngorongoro Conservation Area behind, your journey takes you to Karatu, nestled in the Ngorongoro highlands. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to explore a coffee plantation. Take a leisurely stroll through the fragrant fields, learning about the art of coffee cultivation and processing. The rich aroma of freshly roasted beans will envelop you, connecting you to the land and its traditions.

As the day draws to a close, find solace in one of the three stunning Tanganyika Wilderness Adventure Lodges, where you’ll rest amidst the beauty of Tanzania’s highlands. 🌿☕🌄

Good morning! After a satisfying breakfast, your journey leads you back to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. As you descend into the crater, prepare to be awestruck. This immense collapsed volcano cradles a thriving ecosystem—a sanctuary for approximately 25,000 creatures.

Among the inhabitants are the Big Five: the majestic lion, the gentle elephant, the formidable buffalo, the elusive rhino, and the sleek leopard. But that’s not all—spotted hyenas, rare wild canines, and a symphony of over 500 bird species also call this place home.

Your day unfolds with an extended game drive, allowing you to witness the drama of life in this ancient caldera. As the sun reaches its zenith, enjoy a picnic lunch amidst this natural wonder. Later in the afternoon, bid farewell to the crater and return to the comfort of your Tanganyika Wilderness Adventure Lodge for another night of rest and reflection. 🌿🦁🌅

Your unforgettable vacation culminates with a direct transfer from your lodge to the airport. As you bid farewell to Tanzania, cherish the memories of your remarkable journey through its wild heart.
