Your journey begins with a warm welcome in Arusha, where you’ll meet your private guide and set off on a scenic drive to Tarangire National Park. This park is known for its dramatic baobab trees and large elephant herds. After checking in at your luxury lodge and enjoying lunch, embark on your first afternoon game drive, where you may spot zebras, giraffes, wildebeest, and predators like lions and leopards near the Tarangire River. Return to your lodge for dinner and your first night under the African stars.

After breakfast, you’ll begin your journey to Serengeti National Park, passing through the Ngorongoro highlands. The road itself is teeming with life—expect to see Maasai herders, distant volcanoes, and wildlife even before reaching your destination. Upon arrival, check into your safari lodge and enjoy a hot lunch before heading out on an afternoon game drive. The Serengeti’s golden plains offer chances to see big cats, massive wildebeest herds, elephants, and more.

Start the day with a sunrise game drive, when the bush is alive with movement—ideal for spotting lions on the hunt, hyenas scavenging, and leopards in trees. After a hearty brunch and some rest back at the lodge, venture out again in the afternoon to explore a different region of the Serengeti. From hippo pools to rocky outcrops (kopjes), every landscape reveals a new chapter of the Serengeti’s wildlife drama.

This morning, bid farewell to the Serengeti and travel to Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Africa’s most unique wildlife habitats. Upon arrival, descend into the crater for an afternoon game drive through this natural amphitheater, home to the Big Five and an extraordinary array of birdlife. Enjoy a picnic lunch with dramatic views, and then return to your luxury camp on the crater rim as the sun begins to set.

After breakfast, transfer to Arusha or Kilimanjaro airport for your short flight to Zanzibar. Upon landing, you’ll be met and transferred to your beachfront resort. The tempo changes here—from safari excitement to tropical tranquility. Spend your first evening walking along the soft sands of the Indian Ocean, enjoying cocktails by the pool, and savoring a seafood dinner by the sea.

These two days are yours to enjoy at your own pace. Lounge by the pool, swim in the ocean, or indulge in optional activities such as snorkeling, spice tours, Stone Town excursions, or sunset dhow cruises (not included). Or simply unwind at the resort, enjoying spa treatments and romantic beachside dinners. Zanzibar is the ideal finale to your East African adventure.
