Upgraded Tanzania Safari

Arrive at any time. Arrival transfer included.

This morning take a guided walk through the Mto wa Mbu village where you will visit the local market and meet artisans in their workshops. Then share a traditional lunch with a local family before continuing to the Rift Valley escarpment to settle into our safari camp. Be on the lookout for lions, elephants, hippos, giraffes, and other wildlife on our first safari drive in Lake Manyara National Park.

Along the way to our safari camp in Serengeti National Park we will stop at the Olduvai Gorge Museum and Visitor’s Centre. From here, continue to the world-famous Serengeti National Park and head out on a late afternoon safari drive across the Serengeti Plain, keeping an eye out for grazing giraffes, lounging lions, and herds of antelope in the golden light.

It’s all about safaris today on this visit to one of Africa’s most celebrated wildlife reserves; the Serengeti. Set out on morning and afternoon safaris in a 4x4 through the flowing grasslands. If luck is on your side, spot all of Africa’s “big five” animals before settling in at the Serengeti Wildlife Research Centre to enjoy a talk by one of the visiting researchers.

Depart from the Serengeti early and travel across the vast savanna to the Ngorongoro Conservation area. Set out on a full-day safari drive into the Ngorongoro Crater and observe the biodiversity and resident wild animals in this incredibly important location to the conservation of global wildlife. Later, enjoy the vibrant colours of an African sunset from the viewing deck at the camp.

Leave Ngorongoro in the morning and travel from to a Maasai village. Here, we learn about the G Adventures–supported Clean Cookstoves Project, dedicated to providing clean-burning cookstoves to Maasai communities throughout Tanzania. Enjoy a presentation by a Maasai woman on the impact of the project. Spend the remainder of the day in the safari capital city of Tanzania, at your own leisure.

Depart at any time.
